What are some of the challenges you anticipate when working with members on a medical team?

"Through my career, I have experienced challenges working with both my team of colleagues and the referring physicians. With the physicians, I clearly understand my role in our work processes. If there is ever an issue or a disagreement, it is always best to discuss in person and come to a resolution. I have always been comfortable in working with and communicating with my team of physicians and I know that they appreciate my openness with them."

Depending on whether you are working in a clinic or a hospital, you may have several different doctors and technicians on your team. If you haven't worked in this type of environment before, consider the difficulties that can arise. If you're working directly with a Radiologist, they may not agree with your analysis of the images. Every person in the office is an expert in their area. It's possible for disagreements. If conflict arises, how do you handle it? If you have three bosses to report to, how will you handle that type of pressure?

"Coming from a large hospital where I work with a large group of Radiologists, I try and alleviate any challenges by communicating in person with each of them and learning their preferences from me. If there has ever been a miscommunication or issue with any member of my team, I am comfortable addressing the issue and taking responsibility for my work."
