"Over the last two and a half years, I've learned that being flexible in response to change is a vital skill for any physician to possess. I feel fortunate to have trained in both urban and rural settings during residency, and both settings required flexibility in my work. Last year, on a busy day during a spike in Covid cases, we had a patient who had been critically injured in a farming accident. An ambulance wasn't dispatched, so we had to move as soon as the patient arrived. While this left some patients hanging mid-exam, we had to prioritize the critically injured patient. Our quick action likely saved the patient's leg from being amputated that day."

Discuss a time you were asked to change your priorities on a dime. Paint a clear picture of the situation and explain why you needed to be flexible. Talk about the result of your actions and assure the interviewers that you will always be ready to handle anything thrown your way during your Ultrasound Fellowship training.
