This course helped me re-evaluate my clinical skills to the highest degree. This course helped me fill so many gaps and I am leaving confidently with a new set of skills to bring to my practice and patients.
The Endo Mini-Residency course gave me the confidence to go back to my practice and provide quality work to my patients. I came in nervous to access molars, but with John and Jordan's class I not only feel confident with accessing, but completing challenging molar root canals. I would recommend it for anyone trying to take that next step.
John and Jordan are very passionate and dedicated educators. The opportunity to receive direct feedback in a clinical setting cannot be duplicated in any other format.
