I would just like to thank you and your counterpart for presenting a truly excellent course. It was my first course outside of the hospital training that is presented. Only one presentation was on par with yours. Lastly I would just like to thank the ODNS team for creating an environment that energized me to passionately learn and perfect techniques that are useful. The pair of you made learning fun and not at all taxing. Thank you for that.
