Radiation therapists have close working relationships with the doctors at their practice. They will rely on you to provide the best client care during treatment and to manage patient information. Trust comes with time and experience. Describe your relationship with the physician you spent the most time with during your clinicals. Or, if you have experience working directly under a doctor in a work setting, talk about how you nurtured that relationship. This question is not the time to bad mouth or criticize any past physicians. Remember - it's a very small world, and you don't want to end up putting your foot in your mouth!

"The relationship with the doctor I currently work under feels more like a partnership. She allows me to take the lead when she knows I can and takes control of other situations while still taking the time to teach and train me. I appreciate a leader who takes the time to invest in my learning. The more I know, the better our clinic can run, and the better we can serve our deserving patients."

"My current physician leader is a great mentor with a strong personality. He knows how to get the work done right the first time, and I genuinely appreciate learning from someone so talented and straightforward."

Usually discuss patients via email who are extremely unwell or if imaging onset appears different to radiotherapy planning.

Cindy's Feedback
Good start. The question is seeking information about how you collaborate, build a rapport, and work in cooperation with a patient's physician. How do you work together with a physician to provide the best care possible?
Master clinical scenarios and safety protocols that oncology departments prioritize in interviews.
