However, getting a certificate from them seems to be virtually impossible. It's been over 2 weeks and nothing. Over a week ago Vince said tomorrow, that was more than 7 days ago.

I started my surgical technology program at Pima Medical Institute (Denver) in December 2018. The…read morelength of program was 18 months. Initially, I intended to enroll in the radiologic technology program, which is also offered at Pima. However, after discovering the surgical technology program by a complete accident during a site visit, I thought it is the best decision I've ever made since. My experience at Pima was quite unique and embedded with lots of good memories, especially with friends whom I met from the same cohort. The instructors were genuinely kind and truly cared about the success of each individual student. The didactic curriculum was reasonably structured with concomitant hands-on experience in the surgical simulation lab which I thought was extremely beneficial in terms of preparation for the clinical rotation. The simulation operating room was well-equipped and set up, which offered a great opportunity to practice and master your clinical skills. Ms. Van, our lab instructor and lecturer, was super helpful and passionate about teaching. It appeared naturally to me that she really enjoyed teaching, especially when it came to the skill demonstration during the simulation lab. Approximately two weeks after the start of my clinical rotation at the University Hospital as a surgical tech student, the peak of the COVID pandemic came by the end of March 2020. The hospital where I was rotating at was forced to enforce a restriction access policy, which essentially affected all students. My clinical rotation was inevitably suspended for three months. During that time, my clinical director continuously fought to find alternative clinical sites for all of us. In the end, I finally had a chance to complete my clinical hours at Denver Health hospital, which happened to be the place that I was employed and ended up working at as a certified surgical technologist. I loved my job and felt very confident in my skill competency thanks to everything that I was taught at Pima. I am currently a PA student at Chapman University in Irvine, CA. Every time I reflect on my educational journey and how it leads me on the path where I am today, it always reminds me of the wonderful people that I met at Pima and Denver Health along with the great memories that they left within me. It was being the surgical tech that gave me the motivation to pursue the dream of becoming a surgical PA. To any prospective students who are interested in or thinking about becoming a surgical technologist, I believe Pima Medical Institute (Denver, CO) is a great place for you to start. The faculty really set a high standard for the program, which can only be appreciated if you truly care about your surgical patients and their outcome and want to be a GREAT surgical technologist in the OR.

What a waste of my time!!…read more Here's the long story, in January 2025 I went in to talk about the X-ray tech training because I saw the advertisement outside the building. I talked to the advisor about the program and was told the next opening doesn't start until January 2026. I thought that's a long ways away but was told that will give me plenty of time to get ready, ok fine. A month later I had to take a test on the computer (I forgot the name of it) to get a good enough score. I got a 23 first time and then was told I should do it again so I had to come back a week later and I got a 25.I was told I got a good enough score and should be fine. A couple months later I went back in to see my advisor if I'm on the right track, at this point, I was now told the X-ray program won't start until March 11th, 2026. I thought that would've been nice to been told that sooner but whatever. So the next step was a face to face interview with the X-ray tech "head-lead" person. I had the interview on October 31, 2025 and I thought the interview went well. I was specifically told that I would know if I got in the program or not and that she would email me by the end of the first week of December, great. The end of the first week of December comes and no response, I wait another week, no response. I emailed my advisor, who in the past would get back to me in a timely matter, about whether I got in the program or not, no response!! I never heard back from this place. It's honestly so bizarre and I'm counting my blessings that I didn't just pay them $55,000. What gets me mad is the fact that I wasted a year dealing with this place and not doing something else that values my time. I knew the ratings for this place were bad, but I'm the type who still likes to see because maybe it's not as bad as people say. Well sadly it's true for me.

My teacher (who I highly recommend) managed to condense everything I've ever been taught, struggled with or read about how to be a writer into four, two-hour sessions. She is extremely talented and offered great insight. The price of the classes are reasonable, even cheaper if you have a membership. They have a variety, such as writing a memoir, learning how to sell a book, writing poetry and also how to write great fiction scenes. I was looking for a great community of writers, and I think I found it. Plus, the Ferril House is very well maintained and a source of inspiration itself.

This counselor allows a person who is unkind and controlling to remain in the group and punishes others who have experienced PTSD with that person - by dropping them. The rude person gets to stay - the person who has PTSD is asked to leave. This is not a safe place for those who have experienced abuse. And since reading this review, all of a sudden the counselor wants to talk with the peson she dropped without notice or any commucication. It's really hard to know what she cares about - her clients safety or her reputation. Repeat - If you have suffered abuse, this is not a safe place for you. One star is too much.
