Marcia L. Boyd

“I wanted to work in a medical field but didn’t want to become a nurse. My education at Dallas College helped begin my journey into the radiology world and has allowed me to further my career and grow as a technologist. 

“The instructors are top-notch. It says something when an employer asks where you went to school, and when Dallas College is the answer, there are no further questions!! The instructors make you feel so comfortable and always have your best interest at heart. They are encouraging, fantastic and an absolute joy to have as leaders. 

“The most important thing I learned is not to give up; there is always someone fighting for you to do your best. I would absolutely recommend this program to other students.”  Marcia Boyd earned an associate degree in Radiologic Sciences. She works as a CT technologist in Grapevine for Preferred Imaging, an outpatient-based imaging center with locations across the metroplex, offering MRI, CT, X-ray and C-Arm Arthrogram and Myelogram procedures.

“When a patient who is in pain, upset or nervous tells you that you made them feel better or just simply tells you 'thank you' with a smile, it makes your hard work worth it. That is the reason I am in this field, and that is what will keep me in it forever.”

“My experience at El Centro was wonderful. The program included online classes plus clinicals three or four days a week. We had the flexibility to do our homework at our own convenience, either doing a little every night or doing it all over the weekend, whatever worked best for us.”

“The best part of my education was the nursing staff. They are just so caring and supportive. They’re there to make sure you get all of the help and support you need. The most important thing I learned is that you’re never too old to set a goal and achieve it.”
