As a medical radiation technologist, Greg Kilroy’s goal is to help make patients’ hospital visits as enjoyable as possible. Even though he works every day in the operating room, emergency department and diagnostic imaging, Greg often reminds himself that patients don’t feel as comfortable in these environments as he does. 

“My goal is ensure all patients feel safe and cared for, and to provide the best diagnostic images possible,” he said.
