Shirel Levy

Sydney,NSW

Summary

My time in the Israel Defence Forces has instilled in me a deep sense of punctuality and responsibility, allowing me to effectively collaborate in high-pressure environments and develop strong teamwork skills.

Working in as an Assistant Radiographer, I have become confident in performing all general X-rays and Bone Mineral Density (BMD) scans. Specifically, in a private practice, I’ve had the unique opportunity to learn and gain confidence in performing niche projections that are often unique to other clinical settings. I have also been fortunate to receive training in CT early in my career, and am already proficient in performing a variety of CT scans unassisted, including image reconstructions and post-processing tasks independently.

My hands-on experience has built my confidence in patient care, positioning, and image quality, whilst enhancing my ability to adapt to diverse patient needs. I am passionate about patient care and always aiming to ensure both comfort and diagnostic accuracy.
