"I just wanted to personally thank you for all the hard work that you did to arrange these last
few days at the Smiles in the Sun Seminar 2017. This course was fast and furious, exciting,
exhilarating, fascinating,invigorating with new or old discoveries around every corner. Not only
that but we all finished at the end as winners!
This course was like being on a BOBSLED for the first time. You know what is coming,.. the
speed, the bends and curves in the track and yet, you did not let us fall out or off. You guided
us expertly and we all finished as winners. We call handle many more unexpected dental
situations and curves that come along now. We are all winners because of you both. This seminar
is a bargain for the price many, many times over. Thank you again for your hard work and may God
Bless you and your families."
—Michael Rozeluk, DDS
