Testimonials from past bootcamps
“I went on the Samera Bootcamp for setting up dental practices in November 2017. Whether planning to set up a squat practice or buy an existing practice I would encourage everyone to attend the two day event. At this event the experienced Samera team share their wealth of knowledge across all fields of dental ownership. It gave me the knowledge and the confidence of moving forward and acquiring my own practice.”
“From the bootcamp I signed up to use Nigel Crossman head of commercial finance services. Nigel went above and beyond my expectations; helping me finance the purchase, coming with me to inspect the practice, helping me with readings accounts etc and always picking up the phone when I had questions for him.”
“I would happily recommend Samera to any prospective buyer, and have already done so.”
“I recently attended Samera Business Advisors online training program to help with the setting up of my dental practice. The speakers and content were exceptional. It is very clear that they have considerable experience and knowledge in this field and I would highly recommend anyone who is interested in or has already started setting up a dental practice to have a look at their online resources or attend one of their courses.”
“Just wanted to say thank you for a brilliant weekend. Your course is so refreshing and has really ignited the spark in setting up from scratch. Thank you both for delivering such an inspirational weekend, there aren’t many courses around that are so positive!”
“A huge thanks to you both for an outstanding event. I really appreciate how much genuine warmth, enthusiasm and energy you both gave to us all. It’s clear how much effort you’ve put into planning the course programme. I’d definitely recommend Bootcamp to fellow Dentists thinking of setting up. I wish you both all the best”
“Your energy is so inspiring and I’m sure a few fine dental clinics will spring from your boot camp. Thank you for the positive encouragement, I agree, I’m now armed with the building blocks and at the right moment I’ll be ready to create!”
“It was all really valuable information; relevant and brilliantly thought out. What made the event especially effective and enjoyable was the positive energy of Smita and Arun.”
“Thank you for the knowledge and information you shared in the past 2 days. It is worth a lot more than I invested in the course. More ever, it was lovely to meet you”
