Mostly new clinics with ample supplies and equipment options. Some older clinics are being updated. There are many clinic sites throughout the valley which require use of a car or carpooling- public transit is not very reliable.
How do students from this program do after graduation - are they adequately prepared for practice?
Everything I've heard is that my classmates were very prepared and have done extremely well.
What are rotations like?
Rotations are typically to external clinics or to complete tasks like screenings. No extraneous rotations to services unrelated to dentistry.
