I started as a nursing student and then switched into surgical technology. All my instructors were fantastic and taught me a lot! My classes prepared me for my career in the OR. With the training & education I was offered a job before I graduated. The director of the program made sure that there was plenty of opportunities for clinicals in different hospitals.
Im currently in school now and I am HIGHLY disappointed in everything so far. This school is very expensive and does the bare minimum. Everything is unprofessional, students are allowed to do whatever they want and teachers aid it on. All Fortis has done for me is put me in debt 21k. SAVE YOUR MONEY! There are much better options then this place.
