Here's what our previous participants said
"Neil’s expertise driving the scans with commentary and the opportunity to ask anything at anytime"
"I found Neil's approach to teaching the 2B course refreshing and informative. It was engaging and he created an open atmosphere. I enjoyed the closed group discussions, as we were able to work through the scans as a team and feel confident in our diagnosis. The coverage of bone disease and also carrying out the quiz and case discussion, gave depth to the teaching, making me feel more confident in reading CBCTs"
"Neil is very approachable and so easy to discuss cases with (even ones you’re embarrassed about!)"
