Why Forget Me Not?
Hear what people have to say about Forget Me Not Ultrasound's trainings
"You are very thorough and explain things well. I love how you encourage your students. Well done!"
Dixie - December 2022
"This helped to reinforce what you taught us in class. Now that we have done some US's on our own, this lesson really cleared up some of what we were seeing. When you taught us, being new to the US world, it was overwhelming, but now with this Enhancement Series, it is clearer. Thanks, Roxanne, for doing these. I am looking forward to the next one AND doing the Zoom on the 4th Wed. (which was today). Have a blessed day and thank you for doing this for us."
JoAnne - June 2021
"You always seem to hit areas that need to be reviewed in our practice. Definitely contributes to making us better at our craft. My original training was more about the machine finding the baby and getting the heartbeat. Our population has changed as well as the standards. Thanks for helping us rise to today's expectations. You make us want to be better sonographers!"
Debbie - August 2022
"Great job Roxanne! I wanted to thank you personally. Your online class has been very helpful and I am excited for the hands-on training to start tomorrow! I believe it will prove to be a huge advantage to have the opportunity to view the material early. I know it has helped me to be able to go over it at my own pace prior to the actual class. Many Blessings!"
Sherry - October 2022
"This video was very educational. It gives me encouragement that my most important thing to know, is what normal is. If I am not seeing it, then I need more information and take good scans for the doc to see. Also so we can best help our clients seek appropriate medical care."
