Tutors clearly very knowledgeable and engaging. Far From Help Part 2 - Kelly MacFarlane
The course Advanced Medicine definitely exceeded my expectations - no matter how much feedback and participants' comments you read on a website there's always a suspicion that these might have been exaggerated - but not in this case! - Leah Reilly Advanced Medicine
Their [WMT’s] presentations and lectures inspired us immensely and demonstrated that being a part of an expedition was a real possibility. Morocco Expedition - Laura Irwin and Reza Noori, The Adventure Medic
... sometimes you come across people who are delivering a service or a product that is so good, so well designed and delivered, and so far ahead of the competition that they’re really operating in their own self-created realm of excellence. Advanced Medicine - Martin Holland, blog
The course instructors were really inspirational and a whole lot of fun, being approachable on the course and socialising in the evenings. Expedition Medicine (winter), Chamonix - Victoria Ormerod, The Adventure Medic
Fantastic instructors. Really enjoyable and I will be back. - Matt O'Rourke Advanced Medicine
It is an extremely impressive delivery team. Well done. Advanced Medicine - Dominic Irvine

Without doubt the most useful course of its kind that I have been on. Advanced Medicine - Richard Traveri

An excellent 4-days. I am leaving with increased confidence and knowledge. Advanced Medicine - Ben Keen, The Adventure Element
