We first met Mary Berg in 2013. I had purchased the Progeny dental x-ray unit and Mary was assigned to train us. Little did we know at the time how lucky we were! Mary is extremely Knowledgeable in veterinary dentistry. She was patient, friendly and thorough in our training.
Mary did a great job with training our techs. I mostly wanted them to be more efficient with dental radiology, but she gave us a whole lot more. I’d highly recommend having her in your practice to train your team.
She taught very practical applications, was fun to listen to, has years and years of experience to draw from which gives her lots of stories to tell as they apply to what she is teaching! Everyone listened intently and learned a ton! It was time well spent to have her here!!
