I'm sure you'll receive your certificate but it is a lot of  work so be prepared! I am expecting a new child on 12/12 so its impossible to make this course. Your instructors are absolutely the best so i'm sure you'll be extremely well prepared. I apologize for missing you though and look forward to continuing correspondence. Please let me know if I can assist you in any way. Bests, Steve

It is a fact that too many patients still receive inadequate information about what can be accomplished. CDT is the gold standard but it is certainly not understood by most physicians. THe climate is always improving but we have a long way to go. Best regards
