Join Our Cardiovascular Imaging Team at Piedmont Walton

 

Piedmont Walton is seeking a dedicated Cardiac Sonographer to join our highly skilled and collaborative cardiovascular imaging team. This position performs high-quality adult transthoracic echocardiograms (TTEs) and assists with transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE) procedures in a busy hospital-based environment serving both inpatient and outpatient populations. We perform adult cardiac studies only and do not provide pediatric echocardiography services.

Our sonographers work closely with cardiologists and other healthcare professionals to provide accurate diagnostic information that directly impacts patient care. We are committed to excellence in imaging, patient-centered care, teamwork, and continuous professional growth.

 

As a high-volume department, we value quality over quantity and are looking for someone who takes pride in producing accurate, diagnostic-quality studies, demonstrates a strong work ethic, is dependable, works well independently, and understands the importance of flexibility and teamwork. We offer a supportive team environment, exposure to a wide variety of cardiac pathology, and opportunities to expand your knowledge and experience.

 

This is a PRN Day-shift position. PRN team members provide coverage based on department needs, staffing levels, vacations, callouts, and patient volumes. While scheduled hours are not guaranteed, we work to provide advance notice whenever possible and value dependable team members who are willing to work flexibly to support patient care and departmental operations.

 

Why join our team? We have an experienced, supportive group of sonographers who are passionate about echocardiography and committed to providing exceptional patient care. You will work closely with an engaged cardiology team, encounter a diverse range of cardiac pathology, and be part of a department that values quality, teamwork, accountability, and professional growth.
