20 Best Dental Assistant Programs In Miami, FL (2022 Updated)

Currently attending and have been struck with how little people here care about their students’ education. I’ve called for advisors to help me with transfer papers and financial aid to ask about my scholarship money (they never refunded it back to me) and I’ve been hung up, transfered to other lines, and even worst… gotten a voicemail saying they’re not available even after calling 5 times during different days and hours. It’s as if the faculty here doesn’t work. The professors are mediocre, really lazy and most have an accent that is hard to understand. Never answer to emails either and don’t help their students pass. I’ve gotten all As and one B but that’s due to how much I tried and stressed myself since I didn’t get any help here. Currently working on my transfer out of state to get out of this school as soon as possible.Adriana Alva

Ever since the pandemic, it’s been difficult getting a hold of different departments and professors. When you sign up for a class, they usually cancel the class for the semester for various reasons. They don’t communicate changes in policy i.e. when you enroll for a class and your funding doesn’t come through, they no longer automatically drop you from the class so they expect you to pay for that class, even if you didn’t take it. Apparently they no longer automatically drop you for non-payment. It’s an unethical practice. Students should be notified of this policy change. The only bright side of this school has been the Access program. They’ve always answered calls and provided help.Kim Sanchez

Glitchy system that logs in when it feels like it, making me pay for classes I DID NOT TAKE and sent me to collections. Staff may lack 3rd grade education let alone college, the only thing they can direct you to is the bathroom. Appealing anything takes several tries and a firework display over Bayside spelling out "stop screwing me i.d. #000000000". Best thing I could've done for myself is not even bother with MDC. Take i.t./networking related classes through Netacad directly. Save the hundreds of dollars, time, and headaches.Javier C

A little over a month ago, I wrote a review on here about a situation that was happening between this school and myself: I was receiving calls and emails from them in regards to a balance that I was unaware of due to some mishaps during Covid where the grant vouchers I turned in weren’t utilized and the balance remained. I was beyond frustrated and when it got to the point where they said I’d be I collections for a debt that wasn’t my fault. I became angry and explained the situation here. Not even an hour later, the school reached out to me about getting in touch with the new Campus President, Dr. Dean Vines, to speak more on the situation. When I tell you Dr. Vines was extremely warm, understanding and apologetic about what was happening and personally took the time to listen. He took it upon himself to reach out to me and look into the situation personally, even though this occurred back in 2020 before his time at Concorde. I am very grateful for him taking the time out from his busy schedule to not only correct the problem, but met with me in person to hand me my transcripts and diploma that I had yet to receive from them. Thank you Campus President Vines! You’re an incredible addition to an otherwise great school. I am so glad that Concorde has you as their guide. Both your current and future students are in great hands.Jamylet Flores

I have been trying to go back to school and further my education for years and years finally I came to Florida for a visit and spoke with Claudette Simpson an admission representative and fell in love with her she's been more down to earth more personable than anyone I've known in education she's helped in so many ways I meant a lot of the faculty and staff involved in occupational therapy assistant program and they've all seemed very very very very professional and very nice and very helpful unfortunately I was not able to complete the program when I started in 2020 but here I am 2022 and within within weeks I'm about to start again still feeling like family still feeling like I have support still feeling that everyone wants me to graduate it's a wonderful feeling it's been scary even though I know I can do it but with these people behind you pushing you and rooting for you I have no doubt in my mind they told me they cannot wait to see me graduate and I see me graduating thank you thank you Claudette you are Amazing!!!!Jennifer Lovelock

This is going to be my 3rd Course. So far so good. Everyone's very friendly including the receptionists they are very nice. They greet everyone, like if they knew you for a long time. Also, when you have problems with your work, your teachers makes sure you understand it, including the students. They just don't sign you up and ignore you. I love Ania, always asking how I am doing and cheering me up. Also love the coffee and snacks they have for us all the time 🤗Claudia Puerta

(Translated by Google) Very grateful to this school and its staff. I studied dental assistant with the teacher Blanca, a very professional and dedicated patient with her students. I cannot ignore Yolanda as she is always worried about when you graduate to get you a job thanks to her today I am working in a great clinic. Very happy with his great work, he is a person who likes to help progress. I do not regret having made the decision to have come to this great school.

Thoroughly enjoyed my visits here at this Dentistry office. All of the staff from the receptionist, dental hygienist, assistant and Dr. Velazquez were very welcoming and lively. They do a diligent job of answering any and all questions I asked and easing any concerns I had. We all know getting dental work is not always the most pleasant experience but they do all they can to make you feel comfortable…I was able to select my own musical playlist which can make a huge difference when you're getting your wisdom teeth pulled. Ha! The feel of the office is very modern, clean with up-to-date equipment, as well as the precautions they take to ensure everything is sterile. Once again I thoroughly enjoyed it here, I've come here for multiple procedures ranging from X-Rays, Dental Exams, Cleanings, Fillings, and Tooth Extractions and I plan to keep coming back. Thank you and special shout-out to Raquel for being such a pleasant nice person to deal with.Michael Bejarano

I’ve been doing to AVM dentistry for over 2 years now and they never fail to make me feel welcome! Carlos and Janette are amazing! They always send me reminders before my upcoming appointments, and are flexible with my scheduling. Not to mention their exceptional customer service! Raquel the dental hygienist is amazing, always walks me through what we’ll be doing in my cleanings (I have braces so I need them more often). Astrid is a great dental assistant and always puts me at ease! And the doctor is great as well! He always makes sure I’m comfortable during my ortho appointments and is definitely striving for my teeth to come out as perfect as possible! Also, the office itself is always kept up and organized! I always recommend this dentistry to others 🙂Maria Alonso

This dentist was awesome. I was scared after not being to the dentist for years but after realized I had nothing to worry about. I had a chip tooth and cavities. The dentist made me feel comfortable through everything and was extremely patient with me, even with all my questions and concerns. Most importantly the finished work was perfect. A huge thanks to AVM Dentistry for making me enjoy going to the dentist againchristian valencia

(Translated by Google) Praxis is a wonderful school. It's not college type. It's more like a high school. But one feels at home. Most are Latino and speak Spanish. The teachers are very good, they are demanding, they teach you. And the administrative part is pending any request. Compared to a community college, the prices are high, which is why financial aid is important, so you would have easier monthly fees to pay. But it is a different type of education, they give you a quality service, they give you a bonus that you do not get in a regular college, so it is 100% worth it. I am studying Massage Therapy here and I have learned so much, I am not going to lie to you, it is demanding, but I am convinced that I have chosen the best school for this. PRAXIS super recommended and Professional. (Original) Praxis es una escuela maravillosa. No es tipo college. Es más como un instituto. Pero uno se siente como en casa. La mayoría son latinos y hablan español. Los profesores son muy buenos, son exigentes, te enseñan. Y la parte administrativa está pendiente de cualquier solicitud. En comparación a un community College, los precios son elevados, por eso es importante la ayuda financiera, así te quedaría cuotas mensuales más fáciles de pagar. Pero es un tipo de educación diferente, ellos te dan un servicio de calidad, te dan un plus que no te dan en un college regular así que es worth it 100%. Estoy estudiando Massage Therapy aqui y he aprendido tanto, no te voy a mentir, es exigente, pero estoy convencida de haber escogido la mejor escuela para esto. PRAXIS super recomendada y Profesional.Andy Alvis

(Translated by Google) My school where I studied the Florida Basic Program in 2004 so that I could then do the Board in Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork and have my first License from the Department of Health of the State of Florida that, thank God, I keep active until 2023, and then I returned in 2011 to study the Clinical Advance Program and obtained knowledge in Sports Medicine, Neuromuscular Therapy, Stone Massage, Manual Lymphatic Drainage, Hotstone, Geriatric Massage and Rehabilitation and other Modalities to use in Spas, Clinics, and currently in my worked. Thanks to my tremendous teachers Mariano Leiva and Joel. And to all those who are still there like Saimy, Zoila and Mayra in Hialeah. (Original) Mi escuela donde estudié en el 2004 el Programa Básico de la Florida para poder luego hacer el Board en Therapeutic Massage and Bodywork y tener mi primera Licencia del Departamento de Salud del Estado de la Florida que a Dios Gracias mantengo activa hasta el 2023, y luego volví en el 2011 a estudiar el Clinical Advance Program y obtuve conocimientos en Medicina Deportiva, en Terapia Neuromuscular, Stone Massage, Drenaje Linfático Manual, Hotstone, Masaje Geriátrico y Rehabilitación y otras Modalidades para utilizar en los Spas, las Clínicas, y actualmente en mi trabajo. Gracias a mis tremendos profesores Mariano Leiva y Joel. Y a todos los que aún están allí como lo son Saimy, Zoila y Mayra en Hialeah.Noemi Hernandez Zamora

The way they presented the Massage Therapy program to me during enrollment had nothing to do with how the course actually is. They also need to decide if they want to teach in Spanish or English. The professors teach in Spanish mixed with material written in English (power points, text book etc) which causes confusion during study time. The online classes are rushed, and unclear, and many times a lot of the questions asked during tests didn't make sense because of language barriers or didn't even reflect what we were studying. I feel that if you are serious about preparing for a career in massage to enroll in a more serious and professional school. I have called 3 times about my transcripts and have had no luck with ANYBODY because I guess even sending an email is too much to askBryan Torres

Coming to Florida from New York was something that i really thought I was going to regret. Being away from my Family and Friends was tough however Ms. Marina and Ms. Kennedy helped me through the whole process. My experience these past past eight weeks has been exceptional. I gained knowledge that will definitely help me in the dental field. Furthermore the hands on experience was very helpful that has made me more passionate about dentistry. Ms. Marina and Ms. Kennedy had helped me find my vocation within dentistry which is pediatric dentistry. Everything that has been taught here will be used and put into my future. Now I don’t regret coming to Florida this was the best experience and the best decision. This opportunity had opened a lot of doors for me. I am more than excited to see what the future will bring!Edyta Edi

As others have said I totally thought the reviews were fake. An avid truth teller myself, I was eager to spill the tea once I graduated and didn't have to see these ladies again. So here it is…. My biggest complaint is that it's only 8 weeks. Not because I love learning but the ladies truly care about the success of the students. They are kind, caring, and understanding. The truth is the reviews are real. The class is totally worth it and even though it is only 8 weeks it's an awesome beginning to a new career. It doable for anyone even with a busy schedule. I love the way they have everything set up, the classes, the lessons and even the school. If you have any hesitation go check them out and see for yourself. It's a step towards a new career. Thank you for everything ladiesL Wilson

DAAPB has been the best experience! They helped give me a clear path to a better future. I have made so much progress since starting here, in both my skills as a dental assistant, as well as in my personal growth. In just eight weeks, DAAPB has given me the skills and confidence necessary for a lifetime of success and I am so excited to start the next phase of my life and career! I am leaving this program with MULTIPLE job offers and I am so grateful to have had this opportunity to learn so much in such a short time!Madison VanSumer

Wow. What a change in set up, I've been in the hospitality Industry for 10+ years and have done everything from dishes to cook and bartending.i decided to take my prepaid college funds and use it towards this program. This accelerated program was perfect for where I wanted to be in life, they've given me the ability and skills to start in a dental office, with these skills I will have a nice pay increase but what's important is that I will be able to provide for my my family and still be able to spend all thr time with them. This has truly been a blessing. Erika and Debbie have been more than just teachers they became close friends and helped cater to any issue I needed help with and always laughed at my jokes. Truly a great experience!Mitchell Felice

This accelerated program has AMAZING instructors who are very passionate for the field and for their students. Erica is super informative, patient, and extremely helpful. She really does an awesome job at making sure all of her students get the necessary resources to come out of the program successful and ready for the next step of their students careers.David Godinez

Just finishing up the program and wow! I’ve learned so much and my instructors are so patient and I love the diversity of learning styles and honestly this was the best experience for my 1st step into falling in love with dentistry!Ashley Muse

This is by far the best dental academy in the Tampa Bay Area. Let me just start out by saying a big thank you to my instructors Teresa and Bobbi for teaching me and guiding me on the right path to become the best dental assistant I can be. If you are looking for a fun, caring and educational School, this is where you should be! The School revolves around its students. There is so much passion that goes into the way these teachers teach. The teachers are always willing to help in any area you may be having trouble with. Academy for dental assisting is always there for you through your whole process of becoming an EFDA. The curriculum is developed in the best way possible to help you as a student gain the education and proper training you will need to become an EFDA. The director of the academy Ronda, is wonderful as well. She makes an appoint to drop into the class without disruption to say “hi”, answer any of our questions and make us feel welcomed. I am highly satisfied with academy for dental assisting. If you’re considering going to school to become a DA, honestly look no further because you’re right where you were meant to be!Belinda Yohn

I’ve been a dental assistant for 33 years. I moved to Florida from Ohio and needed to get the Florida EFDA and X-ray certifications. I was so nervous to take the tests but I didn’t need to be. The instructor ( thank you Theresa!! ) and office manager ( Thank you Brooke) were so nice and funny and helpful. Once I entered the classroom Theresa had us relaxed and laughing. She took the time to get to know each of us. The class size was small so all of us girls were able to feel comfortable working with everyone. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. By far this is the best dental school I’ve ever been to and would highly recommend anyone take their classes or certification courses.Kasey Dreaden

This is the best school ever. They care so much about you and try all the possibles ways, so you can get the lesson and what they are trying to teach. My instructors Ms. Kathy and Ms. P. Jai are beyond any expectations about what a good instructor looks like. The care so much about the students and the way they teach is 100% understandable. I am going to miss them so much… I really enjoy my time there and I would recommend it 100% and beyond. If you are thinking to take this school as your, don’t have any doubts about it is the best decision ever. Take the Saturday class and the success is 100% warranty.Evelyn Dopico

I am a recent graduate of FLDATS and highly recommend this school for anyone who is pursuing a career as an Expanded Function Dental Assistant. There are other schools out there but if you want the best, go FLDATS! The class was given by Sarah, an expert in the field, who caringly presented the material in a thorough, understandable manner and always made herself available to answer any questions or concerns that I had. It was hard work, but Sarah’s instruction, positive attitude and encouragement made mastering the academics possible. The classroom facility was excellent, modern and directly connected to Central Florida’s top family dental practice Collins Dental. Sarah, Catherine, and the whole FLDATS staff made my learning experience an amazing one where I feel confident and prepared to enter the workforce as a team member at a dental practice.Paola Delia

I attended FLDATS last semester and I can’t express enough how much I enjoyed it!! I went into this school having little knowledge about dentistry. This program helped me understand everything I need to know. My favorite part was all of the hands on labs. It was so fascinating trying new things and seeing the outcome of them. I will admit I wasn’t an expert in the beginning, but towards the end things I would mess up on started to get better and better. Plus, Sarah was an amazing teacher throughout the semester. She always answered my questions and helped me understand certain things when I was confused. If you’re considering becoming a dental assistant, I recommend to start here!Brandi Barontini

I am a recent graduate from FLDATS and coming into this program, I was unaware of how important a dental assistant’s role is in a dental office! In just a little over 12 weeks, I gained so much knowledge and respect for the hard work assistants put in. Sarah the instructor has a wealth of experience that made me feel secure in choosing this school for my career. Class sizes are typically kept to no more than 10 which brings a sense of camaraderie and allows for more one on one learning which I felt was very beneficial. The labs and book work compliment each other and help with absorbing information. I definitely recommend FLDATS to anyone interested in dental assisting.Aubrie Elizabeth

I graduated from AAA school a couple of months ago and I have to say that it was the best decision I ever made. The program is definitely challenging, specially because it is a fast paced program with a lot of material to learn. But for a full time working and busy mama seemed like the best option and I do not regret it. Once I graduated I got hired where I did my internship and they complimented me with my skills. Of course the real dentistry world is a whole new experience but hey practice and experience makes “perfect” right?! I loved coach Kelly and Zack. Experience + fun = the best way of learning. 100% recommended!! They will get you on the right path to start!Raysza Ev

Coach Zachhhh….. AAA dental school is amazing literally all the coaches are great hands down ZACH KIM ,BARBIE , KELLY the experience for me was amazing, the Coaches saw something in me that I didnt even see in myself. Helped me every step of the way never gave up on me pushed me then I stated believing in myself totally changed my life I’m forever grateful A HUGE THANKS…. I would 100 percent recommend AAA DENTAL SCHOOL TO ANYONEChiquita Nickles

For only 90 days you do learn a lot! You feel comfortable once you get out into the office! The coach’s are all so nice and very helpful. Shoutout to Coach Cheryl and Coach Kim they made the challenging 90 days less stressful. It was definitely worth the challenge and dedication! AAA rocks!!Tamani Curtis

I attended this school in June of 2022. I couldn’t have asked for a better school than this. The school coordinator, Gabriella was the most sweet and was always willing to help in anyway she could. Monica was an amazing instructor and taught me so much during class and during my practice exams. I highly recommend this program to anyone that wants a career in the dental field! You get your Dental Assistant certificate, X-ray, and cpr certification. Thank you guys for everything. You guys are the best!rebecca pervaza

I loved this place!! If you want to be apart of a place that literally gives you New lease on life I definitely recommend this is a place to attend. They work with you and their atmosphere is always welcoming cheerful. They are amazing at what they do and bring confidence in your life. Everyone is extremely easygoing and understanding! Also, you won’t be lost after you graduate! They assist with job placement too! I went to go get an internship and ended up with a job!Cherie Centeno

I attended this school on February. I already finished my internship hours and even got a job offer! The schedule and classes are very flexible as I was able to study and work at the some time. I highly recommend this program if you’re looking to become a Dental Assistant in a short period of time! Dr. Sangalang and the entire team will give you all the resources you need to succeed in this field. Thank you for all your help!Erika Diaz Walker

As an adverse effect of neurosurgery, my jaw lost its elasticity and the ability to open. I was not able to eat or brush my teeth. Looking for someone to help me, and not knowing whether I would be able to fully open my mouth again, I found Dr. Ordonez by recommendation of two oral surgeons who characterized him as the best TMJ specialist. At the same time that he meticulously explained my situation, he filled me with hope and good thoughts about the possibility of recovering if I did my part. I started seeing results very soon and, six months later, I feel fully recovered. His attention is personalized and his staff is unbelievably attentive.Luisa Ramos

The staff is very personable and professional. They make you feel welcome and answered all my questions and concerns with patience. Dr Ordonez came highly recommended. I have suffered with TMJ for years: headaches, jaw clicking, facial pain. I was wearing my teeth away from clenching and grinding. After beginning treatment, I am so happy to say that I don't wake up with jaw pain or headaches!!! I am thrilled and pleased!!! and I am so much happier now that I am pain free!Jeannie N

Love ! love ! love !this dentist he resolved my TMJ issue shortly after no other specialist would. He was great with my fillings and my kids love him too. I would highly recommend him to all . The practice is clean and modern and upscale and the prices don't reflect it .It was affordable and the took my PPO .. This will be my dentist for life !karla castillo

I have been saying this since I was in school: Somebody had better get serious about educating our young people. The first red flag about this school should have been to me is the bad website from the late 1990s. It's Geocities feel and look and the second red flag "100% job placement" "Reading the fine print on job placement in this school"employed for a least 1 day , It means working in fast food aka flipping burgers " You not going to get a job in the subject that you study trust me.Nearly half of working Americans with degrees are in jobs for which they're overqualified that $30,000 to $60,000 a year is not going to happen.. It more like 16k working at a best buy,office depot or a restaurant working for peanuts. Some of the teacher here are in over their head about what there job is. Its really a shame the way they advantage of people who are only trying to better there lives. trust me how you learn is by reading the book and doing homework and the other students are the ones that help you out. I put that Computer Systems Technology , Information Technology degrees and Commercial Art degrees to good use as cage liner for the dogs. The real crooks in the for-profit education business turn out more "graduates" than the market can absorb. Their victims get lured in, take out federally insured "student loans" and walk away with limited employment prospects and credits that are worthless at legitimate educational institutions.Arale karn-deikun

Lindsay on a whole is the reason why I gave this a 3 star . The teacher I had I like a lot . He knew what he was doing . He made it worth coming to school. The office where you register thoes people act like they don't care about nothing . Almost as if they hate their job. Nothing friendly about them at all. They give you minimal info. Ms . Gray , she runs financial aid . She's a sweetheart . She always on the go . She may look extremely busy at times but she is quick to help a student out with almost any question about your program . And she's pretty funny. But honestly if it wasn't for ms gray and my teacher I probably would have left Lindsey Hopkins a long time ago.kayla pierre

Lindsey Hopkins Technical Education Center is a valuable asset to Miami-Dade county. Lindsey Tech has the potential to be a great institution. I attended the Fashion program in 2012. I recieved my certification from Lindsey, and i'm now attending The Academy of Art in San Francisco, which is rated as one of the best Fashion programs in the world. I can with all honesty say that Mrs. Benoit's Fashion program at Lindsey is world class. She coverd and taught us everything that I am seeing now at the Academy of Art.lebendana

March 21, 12pm, my first day of practice in the pharmacy, thanks to María Obregón for having found me a good place to put into practice the knowledge acquired in the FEI. It was a very busy day, I had the support of all those who work there. I worked with them, and I was very happy to finish my day and receive good comments about my work, my answer was: thank you for trusting me, but I had a great teacher.Rebeca Cid Perez de Alejo

I'm so glad I came to FEI i did the Medical Assistant program and it was the best decision I've made for myself, the teacher was so wonderful and ready to help all her students. And the staff is always there to help with anything the students need. And the job placement department is one of the best. I highly recomend this school to anyone who's looking to start or better their life. Thank u FEI.Enrique Quinteo

Very impressed with this school, it’s faculty and the administration. They really do care for their students. They will work with you and help you every step of the way. You will never feel alone while attending this school. They have great job placement which is very helpful in reaching your career goals. I highly recommend this school.LM Lopez

I went to DATS about a year ago and now I have a dental assisting job at a pediatric dental office and I love my job! Dental is the way to go and DATS will help get you there! Great course, plenty of hands-on experience all while teaching you the necessary basics of dental assisting. Student to teacher ratio is great and allows for individualized help! Highly recommendAlexia Valdivia

Absolutely love this program. I learned so much and the instructors were fantastic. They explain everything very thoroughly, they take time to practice with you, any questions you have they are always there to help you. I’m extremely happy that I chose this program.Javier Moya

I absolutely loved this program. I went to the one in Fort Myers in Winter of 2020 and was trained by Marthella and Jorge. Both of them were awesome and I learned a lot. I got a job right out of school and love doing it. Definitely recommend!Brittany

DAPA was a great experience for me. I completed the DA program a couple months ago and i truly loved every aspect of it. The fact that the classes sizes are small, which gives the teachers more time to work with each student individually and you actually feel like you’re learning, was really important to me. Mrs Rose is a God sent! She really takes her time explaining and demonstrating things to make sure you’re getting it. And if you’re not, she goes over it again, as many times as you’d need her too. Being trained in both the administrative side and clinical side of the dental field has been really beneficial for me. The school director Natacha is there to help you with anything you need at any moment. She really cares for each and every one of her student as an individual and truly wants to see you succeed. She has helped me in more ways than one and i am truly grateful and thankful to her for all her support and guidance. Anytime i come across someone who’s interested in the dental field, DAPA will always be at the top of my recommendation list!Thais Quinones

If you're looking for a great education, highly qualified and knowledgeable instructors, excellent support system and hands on clinical experience then Dental Assistant Pioneer Academy has everything to offer. Ms. Juliana and Ms. Rose were the best instructors. They made sure that we had the necessary skills and knowledge before we go out in the field. I completed my externship hours in the best dental office that Natacha (director) placed me in. Overall, I am glad I completed this program. It was 100% worth the 2 hour drive. 🙂 Thank you DAPA team.Fatima Rana

This is an exceptional place for anyone pursuing a career in dental assisting! There are many options for different classes to fit your needs, and the instructor Rose is very knowledgeable. I took the Weekend Expanded Functions and Radiology class. She is thorough in her teaching and encourages questions. Overall a really great class that I'd highly recommend!Quan Trinh

Great dentists here! I can’t believe I have never heard of this clinic before. The front desk staff is very nice and welcoming. The phones are too crazy for the amount of staff they have so the trouble to get in contact by phone is way understandable. I am very happy with the doctor that I am with now and I think it was the clinic director that spoke to me and he talked about my case with me. I don’t understand some of the bad reviews about this place. When you’re given your appointment time, do not expect to be seen right away. There is a wait time but then again there is a wait time for most doctors anywhere you go. There is a review I saw here that mentioned the doctors are not real dentist yet. This is a lie they come from other countries as dentist already. I was explained by the front desk that some even had their own clinics for some time before coming to the US. This is just a residency program that allows them to work in this state. And come on this is a community clinic that offers great prices and services compared to the private clinics. The service here is more than we could ask for!Melanie Gonzales

No kind words, I have been lied to constant times by my dentist regarding what is to be done on my next appointment (how many times can I be wrong)! How many times can I hear you say "that's not what I said"! Going elsewhere for my dental work! I'm sure they can finish what should have been finished according to your initial timeline (which is long past) partly due to scheduling for Wednesday when you don't do appointments! or not recording appointments accurately so it has to be rescheduled but most importantly "don't tell me we're going to do something next and then tell me you didn't say that" , I've heard that for the last time from you! NO ONE COULD BE THAT WRONG EVERY TIME!Darryl N

My issue is not with my doctor. I hate the front desk operations at this clinic. It is poorly ran. They need a better system to gage the wait time. Your appointment can be at 10 they will take two hours to see you and that's if you are lucky. Affordability is the only reason I ever step foot in this facility. If it wasn't for that this clinic would never see me to be quite frank. Do yourself a favor and steer clear of this facility if your time is precious. They will literally take up your entire dam day for a 20 min appointment.Martine Pierre

(Translated by Google) It is a magnificent school, its staff is qualified. Classes are given in OTA (Occupational Therapy), Dental Technician, Therapeutic Massage and Pharmacy Technician.

I had the greatest experience at DAT’s. I love the 1/2 and 1/2 learning you got with hands on and in the book. I’m a hands on person so this really help me with the material. The teachers also made the class so much fun. They made it fun after a long day of work and sitting in class for a couple hours go by so quickly. If your looking to go to dental assistant school this is definitely the school to go with to start your career!Katelynn Pascale

I completed this program Sept 2021! The instructors Jen, Mel, and Jamie were all very knowledgeable and made this experience one not to forget! They made the lectures and hands on training easy to understand and were very helpful. Before graduation, I accepted a job offer at Advance Dental Care! I absolutely would recommend this training school to anyone looking to become a dental assistant!Amanda Crutchfield

I recently completed this program at the Bradenton location. I had the best time throughout my experience. The instructors Mel and Jen are the absolute best and really ensure you’re learning the material. The director and company assisted tremendously in getting hired at the completion of the program. I would recommend this program to anyone.Amber Monroe

If you’re looking for a dental assistant program look no further. Everyone involved in the program, from Arev the director, Dr. Faget, Any the instructor, Lourdes the hygienist, and Esther “the Queen” at the front desk, really makes the experience amazing. They make you feel like family and are always eager to help with anything.The program is very hands-on which is perfect for a dental assisting class because it allows you to feel comfortable when you eventually work with patients. Any is hands down the best teacher! She makes the class educational but also creates such a fun atmosphere that you look forward to it every week. I graduate the program feeling not only ready but very confident in my abilities to work as a dental assistant!Freddie Vera

I recommend this course 100000%! More than a school to just learn you become part of a Family! Any is the best teacher ever. She is always encouraging you to follow your dreams and keep going in this amazing dental field. I really enjoyed the course because it was very hands on which is important to develop your skills .Also they count with the latest materials and techniques to prepare you for real life. I am happy to have chosen Brittin School and now feel prepare and confident to start my journey as Dental Assistant.Alondra Osorio

My initial plans after I finished my undergrad was to apply to dental school, but I felt that I was not mentally prepared for that. It was until I looked into some dental assisting programs in Florida. Brittin DA stood out to me because it was a short and quick course. I learned a lot from this program. The staffs I worked with for my classes were awesome and amazing. I recommend this program to anyone that wants more dental experience and want to become a dental assistant as soon as possible!Sandy Tieu
