Fast Facts
My classes involve a lecture component, but the bulk of class time is spent in lab, learning hands-on skills with practical applications to patient care.
The small class size allows me to really get to know my students and help them achieve their goals. Additionally, the other faculty are so supportive and truly care about the students and each other.
