From CMA to RT

While I am thankful for having a job, medical assisting is no longer my calling and is something I’m no longer passionate about. I feel trapped with no room to grow and have been burnt out for a while now. With radiology, I feel that I will be happier and will finally be satisfied with a stable career ‼️🩻 #radiology #medicalassistant #radtech #radtechstudent #college

Could you please document your journey? I’m a dental assistant (10years) and want to get out of the field. I’ve been seeing people talk about rad tech. Thank you ❤️
