Attention: Human Resources
I am applying for the Diagnostic Medical Sonographer position that has been posted on indeed.com. I would be honored to have the opportunity to continue my sonography career at such a fine facility. I now have a total of 15 years pratice in medical sonography including 13 years experience practicing in a High Risk OB clinic setting as a perinatal sonographer II. My work is accurate, reliable, diligent, and focused on the timely, qualitative completion of ultrasound procedures; works well with others under pressure and time constraints with high volume environments. I am currently registered in a Diagnostic Medical Sonographer(RDMS) in OB/GYN, Fetal Echocardiogram (FE) by American Registry of Diagnostic, and a current credential in Nucal Translucency rant by Nuchal Translucency Quality review. As my attached resume will show , I have worked in a high risk OB/GYN clinic setting my entire career, performing a wide variety of sonography procedures. I would be happy to provide detailed references.
I have a wide experience in general ultrasound including: small parts, abdomen,OB/GYN level I and II, biophysical profile, and Venous Doppler. I believe this ultrasound expertise meets your requirements for its Diagnostic Medical Sonographers.
Additionally, I feel that I bring much more to my work than simply the technical knowledge required of an ultrasound technician. I believe I bring more to the table than just my experience and credentials-- getting a good sense of the patient, explaining the procedure, relieving any anxiety, helping position patients for optimal images-- to me this is just as important as the technical knowledge required of the RDMS. I hope that my sonographic experience and related imaging background is what the department is seeking. My enclosed resume has further details. I look forward to having the opportunity to discuss your sonography needs in person in the near future.
Sincerely,
Loan Baldwin
