Loved working here in South OR on the hill main campus. The best place I have worked and I've been in health care since 2007. Co-workers and management are wonderful to work with, would have signed on permanently if Portland was a better place to live. :(

Travelers typically work in fast paced, high volume PET/CT.  Highly competent staff.  Large department at teaching and research organization.  Leadership structure is currently problematic: both manager and assistant director positions are open; travel manager is also acting as CT supervisor.  Supervisor and travel manager both relatively new. Supervisor is great to work with! Strong organizational focus on inclusivity.
