Kristin E. Lowery, R.V.T, R.D.M.S, Ultrasound
Ultrasound is unique from other imaging modalities in that more diagnostic responsibility rests on the Sonographers. It’s interesting, challenging, and almost an art form. At Mayo, I’m confronted daily with cases that other hospitals rarely see, which continually pushes me toward professional growth. My co-workers are an exceptional group of people, and I can honestly say that I love what I do.

Steven Bussone, NMTCB , Nuclear Medicine
My name is Steven Bussone and I am the Lead Technologist for the Nuclear Medicine department at the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, Florida. Working at Mayo Clinic for the past 15 years, has been personally and professionally rewarding due to the opportunities and resources Mayo Clinic affords us. I am fortunate to work with leading edge technology that other facilities do not invest in; along with being part of multi-modality procedures that directly help patients improve their lives, which most hospitals do not perform. Mayo Clinic also invests in its employees. Through the tuition reimbursement program, I was recently able to complete a life dream of acquiring my Master’s degree. I have the opportunity to work with extraordinary people and have formed lasting relationships with an array of healthcare professionals. Employees at Mayo tend to have long tenures and I believe this is a testament to the quality Mayo Clinic is as an employer.
