Your workplace
Imaging and Functional Diagnostics (BFD) is a dynamic and technically advanced practice that includes radiology, mammography and clinical physiology. Radiology clinics are located in five locations in the region.
As a radiologist here, you will be part of a team consisting of 25 specialists/consultants and 15 ST (specializing) doctors in the county. The practice is jointly organized with an overall manager, scheduler and coordinator, which creates good conditions for cooperation and exchange of expertise. At the hospital, there is one specialist and two ST doctors, but the employees work closely with each other regardless of the location they work in.
Here the activity is conducted around the clock, with both emergency and elective examinations. The machinery consists of a computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MR), fluoroscopy equipment (GML), skeletal lab and ultrasound lab. Here there is closeness between different activities and a strong team spirit between X-ray, clinics and emergency reception.
Here you have the opportunity to combine stimulating work with a life close to nature. Here there are beautiful forests, lakes and mountains within reach – perfect for those who appreciate outdoor life, peace and community.
