These are practical fellow-to-fellow observations, not ratings or criticism. Write them neutrally — “reads outpatient studies in one sitting after clinic” rather than a judgement — and date-stamp every one.
What is stored per attending
The structured fields, so a contributor knows what is being asked.
- Reading responsibilities: outpatient TTE, inpatient TTE, TEE, stressNot recorded
- Clinic locations, and how often they read from a satelliteNot recorded
- Reading and readout style: when, batched or singly, level of detailNot recorded
- Teaching pearls and reading expectationsNot recorded
- TEE involvement, and preferences for preparation and sedationNot recorded
- Stress echo involvement and supervision habitsNot recorded
- Preferred method of contact, subject to permissionsNot recorded
- Last updated · contributed by · verified by · verification stateNot recorded
Every field above, for every reader: reading and readout style, teaching, TEE and stress involvement, and how they would rather be reached when they are off-site. The clinics and reading domains on each card come from the schedule and the directory; nothing else on this page does.

Still needed from the program
Listed rather than guessed. These are the facts this page cannot answer.
- Stress echo serviceWhere stress echo coverage is published. §05 asks each attending card to carry their stress echo involvement and there is no stress-echo service anywhere in the attending schedule — the PET and Nuclear services are nuclear stress and belong to a different rotation — so the reading domains on a card cover outpatient, inpatient and TEE only.
- Reader preferencesEvery preference group, for every reader: readout style and timing, teaching, TEE and stress involvement, and how to reach them off-site.
