A rotation at CVR isn't just hours on a timesheet. It's high-volume, specialty-focused training alongside RVT-certified sonographers — in an environment where your work is real, your preceptor is invested, and the path from intern to employee is shorter than you think.
You'll work directly alongside a vascular physician, not just observe. And your preceptor holds the same RVT credential you're working toward, which means during clinical downtime, they'll work through board preparation content and practice exams with you directly.
Every new patient at CVR begins with a venous duplex ultrasound — the non-invasive exam that combines imaging and Doppler technology to map vein structure and blood flow. From that map, the treatment plan is built.
With 500,000 new patient interactions a year, students rotating at CVR aren't waiting for opportunities to perform this test; they’re performing it. Building the kind of scanning confidence and clinical instincts that will last a lifetime only comes from volume. Few rotations in vascular technology can offer that kind of repetition on a single foundational skill, and fewer still connect that skill so directly to a patient's outcome.
More than 25 million Americans have varicose veins. Up to 6 million have more advanced chronic venous insufficiency — and with over 11,400 Americans turning 65 every day, the number of patients who need this care is growing every year. The specialty you're training for has a real and sustainable future.
