Effective communication skills are essential for success during your Ultrasound Fellowship training. How would you describe your communication skills?

Before your interview, think about your communication strengths. Come to your interview prepared to talk about what makes you great at communicating with patients, colleagues, and support staff. More importantly, explain why solid communication skills are vital for any resident and physician.

"My interpersonal communication skills focus on education and compassion. I treat every conversation with the utmost respect, no matter the nature of the communication. During my time in residency training, my colleagues and care team within the ED relied on me to be a leader. When communicating as a leader, I am thorough, clear, and respectful. I don't shy away from difficult conversations. I also give praise and try to lift my team members with my communication style."
