Highlights
Meet Interventional Radiologist Amy Taylor, MD
My name is Amy Taylor, and I'm an interventional radiologist here at the University of Virginia. I chose interventional radiology because, for me, it combines the best aspects of surgery, radiology, and internal medicine, and allows me to optimallytreat patients through tiny incisions, leading to faster recovery times. I am passionate about women's health, treating women with uterine fibroids and pelvic venous disease, as well as oncology, treating patients with liver cancer. When new patients come to see me, they can expect to answer a few questions about what's been going on, and then I will go through their pictures with them from any recent imagingstudies they may have had done, so that they can really understand what's going on and how my treatments can help them. They can expect to be greeted warmly by my nursing staff and to be treated with the same respect that I would expect my family members to be treated with. So what I enjoy most about interventional radiology is that I get to do everything from diagnose a patient based on their imaging studies to come up with a treatment plan, and then implement thattreatment plan and sort of see it all through from beginning to end, really get the satisfaction of knowing that I've helped that patient. What I think sets UVA apart is the collaboration of care here. There's a lot of communication between specialties that happens behind the scenes to make sure that the best care is provided to the patient, which makes this a really good place to be treated.
