    The best video on RUclips about Radiation Therapy as a career option hands down. You have a great voice and cadence for narrating and I have no criticisms on your work here. You're the man. Thanks :)

    Love the very detailed information with data visualization!!! Now I’m in the digital marketing data analytics field and just recently my sister went through the process of breast cancer . What I notice through her process was the lack of bilingual staff members ( my mother and grandmother are not fluent in English). With that being said it dawned on me that there’s a great opportunity to help the non English community (Spanish to be more specific) however o feel that my age(45) and perhaps the education process to become a Radiation Therapist is against me. Please feel free to provide feedback

      @@braydoncampbell332 Well it’s kind of hard if you don’t put time in to your studies, and mostly your going to be a full time student after 3 semesters being in the program. So it’s easy if you just put your focus on it. And If you have a family and a full time job(between we you gonna have to have a part time when you start having full time school), you have to talk to them since your going to become a full-time students for at least a year and a half.

      All jokes aside I just found out about this career and although it seems very technical, practicing and studying the subject over time will build your confidence. + New York pays big bucks. So use that as a starting point to achieve your goal! Good luck!

      The risk of exposure is quite small as when treating the patient with radiation you are not in the same room and usually, you'll wear radiation badges to monitor how much you have received

      I’ve been told that may occur more on the dosimetry side of things, and less for the Radiation Therapists. Until things get like the movie iRobot where robots have smooth interactions and manual dexterity like humans, I wouldn’t worry too much. By that point the future will either be like Wall-E or Terminator, and we’ll have a whole set of new problems than just finding a job.
