In Memory of Dr. Neville Smith
Dr. Neville Smith, Board Certified Radiologist, Co-Founder of WCUI, & Medical Director of Ultrasound Institute Medical Group (UIMG)
Dr. Smith was dedicated to enhancing quality education in the art and science of Medical Sonography and MRI. We honor his memory and his contributions to WCUI in maintaining quality education, curriculum innovation, and an effective course of clinical rotations. Dr. Smith also created an affordable ultrasound clinic for serving the less fortunate members of the Los Angeles area. WCUI is in perpetual gratitude for having been a part of his vision which still is viable today. Although we no longer have the pleasure of having a personal relationship with him, we continue to admire the footprints he left behind as his legacy is carried on through the students and staff that knew and loved him and all of those who have followed.
To provide quality medical imaging and nursing education for students of all backgrounds, and to fill the growing job market with passionate, knowledgeable, and skilled sonographers and MRI Technicians.

We aim to produce superior graduates with the knowledge and confidence necessary to succeed both professionally and financially. Our goal is to make WCUI the preferred source of education in the community for each of our specified fields of study.
