Congratulations Pediatric Radiology 2018 Fellows, Part 2

The Radiology Department’s Pediatric Neuroradiology Fellowship Program knew they were getting two outstanding fellows (Dr. Julie Guerin and Dr. Padmaja Naidu) before they even joined the department. Both had great years of training prior to coming to Cincinnati Children’s, and both minored in Creative Writing in their undergrad education. Dr. Blaise Jones introduced Drs. Guerin and Naidu at the graduation dinner.

Dr. Marie Vasher completed her fellowship in Interventional Radiology (IR). Dr. Neil Johnson introduced Dr. Vasher at the graduation dinner and explained, “She showed up day one on time and worked very hard. Marie moved from very well trained in the adult world to very well trained in the pediatric world.”

Dr. John Racadio, who couldn’t attend the graduation, wrote a short limerick for her at the dinner. Dr. Vasher has a V8 muscle car that she drove all the way from Florida. Her experience with snow and icy weather was found to be lacking once she moved to Ohio.

The Fellow from Florida was nice, 

too late was the cop’s wise advice.

It did became clear as she spun in high gear,

that Mustangs aren’t meant for the ice.

This year’s RSNA Rontgen Research Fellow Award went to Dr. Morgan McBee. The award is given to the fellow that has made the most academic contributions to the Department of Radiology and to Cincinnati Children’s.

Every year the Fellows give out three awards to our faculty at the graduation dinner. The Outstanding Clinician Award went to Dr. Bernadette L. Koch. The Corning Benton Award for Outstanding Educator and the Janet Strife Award for Outstanding Morale were awarded to Dr. Mantosh S. Rattan.
