Oppose Legistration
 

I think and know from experience that the Radiology Practitioner Assistant (RPA) serves as a great

asset in the hospital and private office environment.  I had the pleasure of being cared for and seen

by a RPA in a hospital vist.  He gave above average care and made the unexpected vist to the

hospital less than painless.  Without his knowledge, professionalism my family would have

endured much pain.  The efficient care and time spent was priceless for us.  I am a Virginia resident

and hope the hospital administration  and  the VA Medical Soceity appreciates the

 RPA commitment.  My hat goes off to the trusted Radiology Practitioner Assistants.
