We thought it would be both fun and educational to share with you a few posts from patients who’ve given online homage to their sonographers by mentioning how great they’ve been via their personal blog posts.
Reading how patients feel about their sonographers, will help you—the potential graduates—understand just how important your roles are in the lives of your patients, and hopefully, help you understand why bedside manners are vital to your profession.
There are literally hundreds of blog posts mentioning sonographers in one way or another, just do a search on google for “sonographers, blogs” to read more. In the meantime, check out these brief, but powerful comments…
At 35 and a half weeks, Becca tells the world, “The sonographers at the Royal Alexandra Hospital here in Edmonton have been great. I have been seeing them every two weeks since October and they always make a point to let me know exactly what is going on with my baby. I think I might actually miss going to see them!”
Ms. Perky didn’t have much to say about her sonographer except that she finds seeing her regular sonographer “far preferable to the times that I get a doctor and no sonographer, because frankly... Margaret's better at this than they are.” Just goes to show how truly important bedside manners really are! Most patients prefer to see the doc over medical staff without such a degree.
Mellie, dealing with a frightful pregnancy took the time to mention just how helpful her sonographer was, mentioning how she “was quite nice and would explain what body part she was looking at, and frequently used the words ‘perfect’ and ‘beautiful’.”
Come back on Friday. We’ll be sharing ways sonographs save lives.
