Know any ultrasound/sonographers personally?

Published

hi,

i am hoping someone can give me some insight into ultrasound/sonography, although i know this is a nursing board. i have applied to an ultrasound program, and am waiting to see if i get in. however, i am starting to get cold feet, and i am wondering if it is going to be worth the time and effort to go back to school for something totally unfamiliar. should i get in, i don't want to have any regrets.

i am an rn right now, and like some aspects of nursing, but find myself disliking it more than i enjoy it. so this is why i am trying to pursue ultrasound, and hopefully i will like it more than nursing. i have shadowed ultrasound techs, and their jobs don't seem as hectic as nurses; however, i know they do carry a lot of responsibility with their jobs like nurses do.

do you know any sonographer/ultrasound technologist, and if so, do they like their jobs? how hard was their program? thanks for any insight you might be able to assist me with.

Hi ckh23,

I am a first year college student and I recently became interested in becoming an Ultrasound Technician but I have a lot of questions before I decide if I should pursue it or not. I was wondering if your wife and I can exchange emails? The counselors at my school are not really familiar with sonography so I am trying to find someone who is! My email is [email protected]

Thank you very much in advance!

I know it is an old post. I would like to know if you did change career. If you did. How is it? Do you like it better than nursing? I am an RN with a bachelor degree and i can't do it anymore. I don't want to have a master in nursing. I don't want to be a nurse any more. I was thinking of getting another bachelor in diagnostic medical sonography. I need help please. I can't do it anymore. Too much stress
