This course was easy to work into my busy schedule with short, engaging sessions. Stephanie did a fantastic job explaining concepts in detail while providing helpful visuals that were easy to understand and apply. I wish I had learned this information years ago as a new grad, however, Stephanie shared many skills and resources that I can benefit from as a seasoned provider. This course is worth the investment for any clinician looking to take the best care of their body as well as improve the patient care experience they provide. Highly recommend!
