UICOM - Peoria Radiology Residency Program

We are sooo excited for our new residents!!!🎊 congratulations to everyone who matched today 👏 👏

Grateful for an inspiring week at RSNA 2025 in Chicago - learning, connecting, and representing UIC Peoria Radiology. Loved running into CIRA President and our own Dr. Kevin Fahey. Already excited for next year!✨

How is July already over?!! We are one month into the new academic year! Time is flying but we’re so grateful for the people who keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes 💫

This week’s spotlight goes to our incredible program coordinator, Jeana McLoughlin! Featuring her son Jack and two dogs Henry & Honey 🐶

Fun fact: Jeana works as a cosmetologist behind the chair on weekends, specializing in bridal and formal styles 💇‍♀️ 💄

Last week we celebrated the graduation of our seniors Alex Jessmore DO, Naomi Kis MD, Christopher Wagner DO, & Aryana Zakikhani DO 😊

Thank you for leading with grace, teaching with patience, and making the darkest rooms the brightest! You all have set the bar high and we will miss you very much! Good luck to the Class of 2025. Wishing each of you the very best as you begin your fellowships in Abdominal, Neuro, and Breast imaging! 🎓

Our incoming R1’s trying on their custom lead!! Which one is your favorite?! 🩻 💀 🌶️ 🌟 🌺

Chairman’s Rounds with one of our attendings and President of CIRA, Dr. Kevin Fahey, today! Wellness afternoon spent well talking about the business aspect of radiology with food and drinks! We often hear physicians say they are never taught the business of medicine in medical school or residency. Our program encourages seeking mentorship and networking to gain useful tips and direction 🩻👩‍💼👨‍💼💼

Welcome to our new Diagnostic Radiology Class of 2030!!!! We are so excited to meet you all again!🥳🥳🥳🥳

On June 3rd, resident Paige Maurer provided a Grand Rounds called “US Guided Procedures: Hands On Workshop”. Our residents got the opportunity to be very hands on with this lecture and had lots of fun. Great job Paige!

What a wonderful celebration of these graduating residents on Saturday. It was fun to see them graduate and celebrate with their family and friends. Congrats radiology residency and fellowship class of 2024.

Our new baby highlight is Miss Evielle Sofia Calvo. She is the daughter of Aryana Zakikhani and was born on 3/7/2024. She is adorable. Congrats to Calvo family.
