When leading-edge technology, expertise and passion are mixed well, the result is healthcare excellence. Sonographers are a group in the mix who often remain unnamed despite their invaluable contributions to community health. These specialists are armed with the knowledge and skillset to conduct ultrasound scans that can make a significant impact on a patient’s life.

To celebrate the dedication and hard work of our sonographers, we decided to make Sonographers’ Day extra sweet this year with some cupcakes for each practice. We took the opportunity to hear from our sonographers as they reflected on their motives to pursuing a career in sonography and we felt the responses were both heartwarming and enlightening.

We asked them two important questions:

1. What inspired you to become a Sonographer?
2. What do you enjoy most about being a Sonographer?

We loved speaking with our Sono-team, learning what makes them tick and realising it takes a particular person to be a sonographer. We credit these outstanding individuals who work diligently behind the scenes to ensure the best care for our patients.
