I have to laugh a radiologists...it's amazing how crappy some can be and stay employed.
not denying this, but surely youve met a lot more rads that are very helpful. One of the reasons I went into it was the high concentration of really smart cool people. Its a special talent to know the normal and pathologic anatomy of the whole body, and all the physics of how the images are made.
As for career choices, I have zero doubt its by far the best field for me. Intense hours but plenty of money, plenty of time off, and huge satisfaction....100 mysteries pondered per day. Its cool as hell.

I always request the patient be given a disc so I can read it myself before reading the radiologists report.
I know some very good ones, I've read reports that left me wondering if the radiologist even looked at the images before writing the report. My biggest irritation with many current (and they seem to be the younger ones) who seem to write reports that CYA and never give any definitive impression and seem to always recommend additional imaging.

Radiology is ridiculous. I know some who are paid well, have great hours, and start with like 8 weeks vacation if not more.
