Franky GuzmanOctober 23, 2023This was a very fun and educational experience. That gave me confidence in the profession that i want to presume. Amazing teachers and students that made it all worth it.
aida peykaranSeptember 16, 2023I recently had the privilege of attending The Valley School for Dental Assisting, and I must say that my experience exceeded all expectations. Not only did I receive a top-notch education in dental assisting, but I also had the honor of being taught by the incredible Dr. Belinda. Dr. Belinda not only taught us the technical skills required for dental assisting but also emphasized the importance of compassion and patient care. She instilled in us the values of empathy, professionalism, and ethical practice, which are equally vital in this field. Her mentorship extended beyond the classroom, as she was always available to answer questions, provide guidance, and offer encouragement. I highly recommend (VSDA) for those who are interested in dentistry.
Iris GalanSeptember 11, 2023Dr. Ren is a great instructor, if you take any of the courses hopefully you get her, because she explains everything well and makes sure you comprehend.

Khrystyna MatviivJune 30, 2023Dr. Ren was such a great teacher! She was patient with us and made sure to answer all of our questions even if we asked the same thing multiple times. I would recommend her if you are trying to learn everything about getting your x-ray certification.

This is an amazing program, it's fast paced and you learn a lot. They help you so much and are patient with you; due to COVID the clases are smaller but that's better because you get more one-on-one time with your teacher. Highly recommend

Mrs. Hurtado was my educator for the DA program. Everything I was taught was up to date and very detailed. I appreciate her being extremely patient with all the students and always being happy. The school was so clean and neat. Thank you for the foundation of my new career!
-Julie P
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Private school that offers all the necessary state mandated credentials for dental assisting and more. Lucked out that the Downey campus opened and I was able to attend the DA program closer to my house.
The campus is brand new, they opened is early 2020, so it has a very modern feel to it. Located in downtown Downey, so it's in (what I believe) a nicer part of the area.
Dr. Belinda was my instructor for the DA program and what a kind, patient, and detailed instructor. Truly there to help educated the students, not just read what's on the PowerPoint, but actually help you understand the information presented to us.
Diana, the school administrator, is always so kind and helpful. If you're looking for job placement she's your go to.
Brian, the school director, is also kind and helpful. Honestly everyone there wants to genuinely help you be successful in the dental field.
-Gabriella B.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fast paced and covers all the basics needed for an entry level D.A, I attended a course already having worked in a dental office and this fit my needs perfectly. Also, you can't beat the price. Dr. Belinda was a pleasure to be taught by and really gives her students every opportunity they need to succeed.
