Patients and Doctors Appreciate the Medical Journey of Dr. Gail Weingast

The medical educational journey of Dr. Gail Weingast began about a half-century ago in 1969. It was that year when she earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Spanish from the Jackson College at Tufts University, in Medford, Massachusetts. It’s fair to say that because her first degree was not at all medical, it is not certain that she always wanted to be a doctor. Something happened, however, because by 1976, she gained her medical degree from the Boston University School of Medicine. That is when she officially became Dr. Gail Weingast.

After she finished medical school, Dr. Gail Weingast continued her educational pursuits. She completed a pediatrics internship and then a two-year residency in pediatrics, followed by the completion of a three-year radiology residency, all by 1983, at Colorado General Hospital in Denver. She followed that with a fellowship in the field of ultrasound in 1983 at the same hospital, although Dr. Gail Weingast completed her post-graduate studies as a radiologist at St. Anthony’s Hospital, also in Denver, in 1984.

Dr. Gail Weingast grows into Chief of Ultrasound and Breast Imaging

Throughout her 40-plus year career, Dr. Gail Weingast has spent the majority of it working in the field of radiology within medical practice. She discovered this passion early in her medicinal studies while completing a four-year residency in the specialty at Colorado General Hospital. This followed a one-year focus in pediatrics, which she swiftly learned was not for her. It was in 1976 that she graduated from Boston University’s School of Medicine -- an education that followed her attainment of a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish from Jackson College at Tufts University, also in Massachusetts.

Although her road to medicine and radiology did not begin conventionally, it moved into a more traditional route as Dr. Gail Weingast completed multiple internships, residencies, fellowships and additional post-graduate studies. For eight years following her completion of an M.D., she dove into various aspects of the field of medicine to hone her craft and expertise. She did so entirely in Colorado -- Colorado General Hospital and St. Anthony’s Hospital, respectively -- where she also began her career following the end of post-grad work in 1984.

Dr. Gail Weingast later moved to New York as a radiologist before joining William W. Backus Hospital in Norwich, Connecticut more than 20 years ago. She has grown in her position there, now serving as an esteemed leader and Chief of Ultrasound and Breast Imaging.

Dr. Gail Weingast Has Led the Way in the Radiology and Ultrasound Fields

Following her post-graduate studies, Dr. Gail Weingast worked at a number hospitals, mostly in Colorado, but also in New York, before she settled into her current hospital, William W. Backus Hospital in Norwich, Connecticut, where she is the Chief of Ultrasound and Breast Imaging and one of the most prominent radiology specialists in the country. This, despite the fact that it wasn’t entirely clear at the beginning that Gail Weingast wanted a career in medicine at all.

Gail Weingast’s first experience in higher education was earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in Spanish from Jackson College, Tufts University, in Medford, Massachusetts. It must have become clear to her soon, however, because she soon attended Boston University School of Medicine and officially became Dr. Gail Weingast way back in 1976. Following medical school, Dr. Weingast completed an internship and a residency program in pediatrics, followed by a residency in radiology and a fellowship in ultrasound under the auspices of Denver’s Colorado General Hospital. She completed her post-graduate studies as a radiologist in 1984 at St. Anthony’s Hospital, also in Denver before working at hospitals in Colorado and New your, until she finally ended up at William W. Backus Hospital in Norwich, Connecticut.
