About Me
My name is Peter Downing.
As you've probably gathered, I was a medical sales rep who has worked in the medical device, capital equipment and pharmaceutical industries, mainly dealing with physicians who used medical imaging.
I originally trained as a Radiographer and on qualifying, I worked in hospitals in London and Leicester. In 1990 I decided to look for a job that allowed me to be more involved with the leading edge of the profession. A move into the industry was the obvious route to take. At that time, as a radiographer, you waited for things to happen around you. As a rep, you are involved in making it happen.
I was pleased I was able to relocate my career within the same medical field, because imaging is definitely the place to be.
The fact that I got more money and a car helped a bit too.
