“I want to thank you for making Essentials 4 such a great experience. I appreciate you taking the time to listen to our concerns and tailor the class to our needs. A lot came together and fell into place in this course. My experience throughout the Pankey Essentials has been phenomenal, and I hope this is just the beginning.”

—Dr. M. Tait Palmer, Austin, TX

“At our last session of Essentials 4, we looked ahead five years and envisioned what we would like to be doing... our desired future. Now, I look back at where I was when I first went to Pankey and wonder at the huge strides. At first, I intentionally practiced what I learned maybe once a week. Now I naturally do it every day. I find most of my "Pankey Learning" did not occur in the classroom in Key Biscayne but when I went home and implemented what I learned at the Institute. It was in the doing that I really got it. And it wasn't just my dentistry that changed. My relationships with others grew. Pankey changed my life, and I look forward to going back.”

—Dr. Kilby Townshend, Bedford, Nova Scotia
