It hasn’t been all easy, but it certainly has been rewarding, and my career is just about to begin. When I first started looking for a career, I knew I wanted to help people and the healthcare area was my first choice, but where to start? If you’re like me, this course will help you make some decisions that will affect the rest of your life. I’m now proudly able to say “I’m a professional Medical Radiographer.”
