You.

You bring your body, mind, heart and spirit to your work as an Echocardiography Technologist.

Your compassion is tangible: patients feel it in the hand they hold. Families feel it in your prayers. Colleagues feel it in your support.

Youâ™re equally comfortable with performing ultrasound examinations of the cerebral, peripheral, and abdominal vessels.

Youâ™re great at what you do, but you want to be part of something even greater. Because you believe that while individuals can be strong, the right team is invincible.
