LIFE UPDATE : Why I Left Ultrasound

  • WELCOME BACK 🤍
    In this video I share my personal experience with working as a sonographer as a new grad back in 2020. This is not a video to discourage anyone from becoming a sonographer. These were just a few of the reasons why I decided to step back from the profession. Maybe knowing some of these reasons can better help you better prepare mentally and physically for this career.
    I would be happy to elaborate more and answer any questions you are on the fence about/ general questions along your journey in this field. If you'd like to see more ultrasound related content don't forget to like, comment and subscribe :)

    Great platform. Anyone thinking about going into this don’t do it, or at least have a backup plan. This job is hard, no chance of upward mobility and nobody respects you. They look at you as a simple button pusher, but you’re not. You physically have to get the images needed which can be exhausting. If you get better doctors and hospitals just add more patients for you. This would be a dream job if they capped the amount of patients you’re allowed a day, but they won’t and you’ll eventually have chronic musculoskeletal issues.

I work in a hospital and people have no idea how physically demanding the job is along with having to know everything else when it comes to protocols and how to work with other depts in the hospital overall.

    Yes to this video. I graduated around the same time as you. I have had nothing but excruciating neck and shoulder pain since day 1. At first, I thought it was because I was working in a busy hospital. So I left to work in an outpatient setting. Still in tremendous pain. I'm depressed and dread work every day. I've talked to other sonographers who have been in the field for 15+ years and they say they see a chiropractor or massage therapist on a WEEKLY basis. As another commentor mentioned, there is NO opportunity for advancement in this field. I cannot wait to leave this career. I feel like it's a trap. My only concern is that whatever other career I choose will require a 15k paycut minimum.

My mistake too, I work a lot and picked up overtime whenever I could. Do PA, nobody cares about us techs, you get better and they add more patients because “you can handle it”. Nobody is looking out for you and they use you as a money making machine churning out patients like fast food burgers at the expense of your arms wrists shoulders etc.

      Thanks for the advice. I worked in both settings : they both have their own pros and cons. The outpatient setting I worked in was very busy with short windows of time for us to complete each scan and write up reports between each appointment. I actually scanned more patients in outpatient during my shift than at the hospital which was surprising to me at the time. I was overworked and too exhausted to try another location. I had made up my mind that I wanted to step back. But it all varies by location for sure.

    Thanks so much for sharing your story, Morgan. I recently started studying Ultrasound in Australia and quit after 1.5 years of study. I have been really disappointed in myself for not finishing what I started. The main reason was because it was stressful studying full time with kids, but red flag about MSK injury risk was always there, and like you, I didn't want to be pessamistic and kept going. After hearing your story, I am glad that I quit. I am petite and found that I needed to stand up to scan, which in itself was already pretty draining. I also felt I had poor probe control with my tiny hands too. I am glad you have highlighted the significance of the physical toll that comes with being a Sonographer.

    Im a CNA. I cannot wait to be done with my DMS. I will take whatever pain comes with sonography over the excruciating physicality that comes with being a CNA. CNAs are the New Yorkers of health care. If you can make it as a CNA you can make it anywhere lol

    Now I’m second guessing going into this field and wasting $28,000. I keep seeing people make videos about the pain it causes. Do anyone have a suggestions on a medical field job that pays well other than nursing. Like an 18 month program?

    @morganashley3420 ngl I am in my 2nd semester of cardiovascular sonography school and I’m at the point like this field is not for me. I was very interested prior to starting but now I personally feel it’s boring because it’s super repetitive you know. what are you thinking of doing outside of ultrasound if you don’t mind me asking?
