"When talking with patients, I'm always sensitive and understanding. Most of my patients are dealing with some illness, and they are already uncomfortable. I try my best to make them feel at ease by actively listening and offering words of encouragement. I am also able to communicate effectively with my colleagues and other healthcare professionals, and have excellent written communication skills, as well."

"My communication style is honest and straightforward while having the ability to adapt my style to the person I am communicating with. With patients, it is important to have an understanding of their knowledge level and background to be able to effectively communicate with them. The same goes for communicating with other healthcare professionals. Regarding my written communication style, I write legibly and clearly and am respectful and to the point when communicating in emails. I know how written communication can sometimes be misconstrued since there is no face-to-face interaction, so I choose to be direct and to the point."

"I'm a very tactful, straightforward person. I prefer to come directly to people to address a situation when communicating with my leadership and coworkers. You'll find that I am a no-frills type of person in my communication style. With patients, I have a calm demeanor and try to educate them as best as I can on the images I am taking. I find that by knowing what I am doing, the patient becomes much more receptive and opens up to me more."
