When asked what he likes most about being a physician, Dr. Althoen replied, “For me, being a physician means having the ability to assist people in the most difficult times of their lives. As a radiologist, I am able to employ the most advanced techniques available to diagnose illness, halt disease progression, and relieve symptoms using minimally invasive techniques.
