Professional History
Dr. Paltiel received her L. Mus and M.D.C.M. from McGill University in Montreal, Canada. After a rotating internship in Montreal she trained for one year in Anatomical Pathology at St. Michael's Hospital in Toronto and for one year in Internal Medicine at Jewish General Hospital in Montreal. After a residency in Diagnostic Radiology at McGill University Teaching Hospitals, she completed a two-year fellowship in Pediatric Radiology at Boston Children's Hospital. Dr. Paltiel's particular interests are pediatric ultrasonography, vascular anomalies, and genitourinary disorders.
