To succeed as a practicing physician and as a fellow requires both the technical side and the patient care side. In asking this question, your interviewers want to get a sense of your bedside manner, as you will work with patients who are under a great deal of stress and pain.

"I have always enjoyed being able to exchange small talk with patients to put them at ease. It keeps their minds off the exam and helps them relax. During residency, my attending physicians wouldn't hesitate to talk about my great bedside manner and the great patient reviews that I received regularly. I try to put myself in the shoes of the patient and treat them the way I would like to be treated."

The social and technological aspects of being a successful Ultrasound Fellow make this an excellent fit for someone who is both analytical and a people-person. Talk about what you enjoy about chatting and getting to know your patients. While you're performing the sonogram, you can calm patients who are nervous and make the experience an overall pleasant one for everyone.
