Most diagnostic radiologists work for other institutions rather than own their own practice due to the start-up costs of starting a business. The interviewers ask this question to understand your career goals and where you see yourself working after completing your residency and/or fellowship. If you do not plan to own your own business, explain why.

"No, I do not plan on having my own practice one day. While I consider myself an entrepreneur and love the idea of owning a business, the thought of starting a practice does not interest me. Working in a hospital or established practice is more appealing because I want to focus on being a radiologist rather than a business owner."
