Staff Profile
ImanDiagnostic Medical Sonographer
As a Diagnostic Medical Sonographer I perform accurate ultrasound tests of a particular area of the body, based on a physician’s order. I apply high-frequency sound waves to the desired area of the patient’s body via the ultrasound equipment. As sonographers say, “I can see with sound.” This helps the radiologist diagnose and monitor a variety of diseases.
My first steps of service are easy, cost nothing, and generate an immediate positive experience. I start outside the ultrasound room with a simple smile and a hello. I always try my best to make patients comfortable; their comfort level is my priority. It makes the exam easy for them and I gain their confidence, which helps me during the ultrasound exam.
I have worked in multiple places and have gained a variety of experience. My work experience at KDH is amazing. I have been here since 2018. It is the best place I have ever worked in Canada. All the staff are very friendly, compassionate and caring. We all work as a team. If anyone were to ask me to recommend one place to work in Canada, without any hesitation, I would nominate KDH.
My childhood ambition was to become a medical professional. I want to contribute to society. I always want to serve humanity and help people in pain. For me it is not just a profession, it is a code of life! I love it.
“I would like to thank and compliment all the staff we encountered at our visit to the ER yesterday with our 11-year-old son. Everyone we encountered was wonderful from the screener at the door to the doctor. In particular Dr. Brisebois was amazing, leaving no stone unturned to ensure our son didn't have any underlying issues. Valetta and all the other nurses were so helpful. We could see everyone was working flat out but they all had time and patience for us.”
