On-going education is integral not only for your continued registration with the GDC, but also to ensure you provide a high level of service to all your patients. It is also essential that your training is relevant both for your practice and for the patients you see, in order to maximise on the potential benefits.
It is widely accepted that patients today have a much better understanding of the various dental treatments available, and as society focuses more and more on appearances, modern patients expect high quality aesthetic finishes to every treatment they undergo.
Having identified this trend among her own patients, Dr Lee Gemmell from Denmark Street Practice in Gateshead took Dr Brian Franks Facial Aesthetics Training Course on Medical Micro-Needling three years’ ago.
“I wanted to learn some different skills for my practice and this was a field in which I knew very little about,” Lee explains. “I started to look into the courses that were available and realised that it could easily be integrated into my practice.
“I chose to take the training course with Dr Brian Franks because he is a dentist, like myself, and I thought that his course would be more relatable to my practice. I also liked how the courses were limited to five delegates, as I thought this would provide a more personal and individualised experience.
“The course day itself was split into ‘bite-size’ chunks – the course covered all the essentials, leaving me with a sound knowledge of the topic. With time to cover everything in detail, it didn’t feel rushed to fit everything in, and I found that I could focus on doing a few treatments well, and then attend more advanced classes once I’d have practised my skills.
“I have now taken a number of training courses with Dr Brian Franks, and they all share similar qualities – thorough content, clearly outlined learning objectives, friendly delivery and efficient progression. The result ensures you gain a good, sound base with which to approach treatments in practise. The courses also give you confidence and you feel inspired after attending. Dr Brian Franks even provides ‘after-care’ for no further charge after the initial course, enabling you to contact him with any queries you may have with regards to a specific case. It is comforting to know that this support is available.
“I would definitely recommend Dr Brian Franks Training Courses to other GDPs, and have done so on several occasions. It's not just about learning the techniques; it's about giving you the confidence to go it alone back in your practice. Instructors Brian and Jan have obviously worked very hard on putting the courses together, which is evident from the smooth-running training days to the information that is provided for delegates to take away with them. I am already building a busier client base week-on-week, and it is great to see patients returning time after time for further treatments.”
