Testimonials

"I have trained under Dr. Vall and team for nearly 10 years. He and his team are among the most skilled and compassionate veterinary dentist/oral surgeons I had the pleasure to work with. I hope to pattern my practice after his lead as he has definitely set the bar." Kipp Wingo, DVM, DAVDC
"I’m a veterinarian who had little previous dental experience. I took one of my technician interested in dentistry out with me a few years ago for training and it absolutely changed how we practice everything related to oral health and surgery. The instruction was fantastic, from the boarded dentists to the very experienced technicians. It has changed the way we practice and has been a significant benefit not only to our clinic but especially for our patients!" Dr. Jon Gose
"Hats off to everyone at Animal Dental Care and Oral Surgery. I have had the pleasure of taking the two introductory and feline courses. Recently at the 2020 Western Veterinary Conference I took a lab on difficult extractions. While it was an adequate lab it was nowhere near the quality and educational merit of the programs I have taken at Animal Dental Care. You guys rock!!" Dr. James Akers, Franktown Animal Clinic
"Hands down I can say that your courses have changed the direction of my veterinary career. Like most vets, I received limited dentistry education in school and truly disliked dentistry for years after graduating. When I completed Level I and II courses in 2013, I felt like a cloud had lifted! What was once so frustrating and anxiety producting became much more straightforward. The skills I learned were immediately applicable and usable in practice. It did not take long for me to realize that I actually LOVE dentistry and it has grown to be a huge part of my practice. This fall I completed both the Level III and Feline Dentistry courses and found them to be the perfect compliment to the previous courses. A big thank you to Dr. Vall, Dr. Redman, and Dr. Guillory for being so personable and patient and being willing to share your knowledge base with general practitioners like me. Thank you!" Dr. Molly Abernathy
