06 May 10 Benefits of an On-Site Radiologist

Onsite radiologists are essentially the “CEO” of their departments, which means they need to be able to manage staff, engage patients and work with stakeholders to constantly build the organization’s brand. Onrad “CEO Radiologists” are able to recognize issues within a department and learn to take actions to resolve them. This is due in large part to the guidance and support provided by Onrad.
