"An incredibly insightful and well-structured seminar! The content was clear, engaging, and highly relevant for anyone stepping into the surgical sector. It provided a solid understanding of OR protocols, professional conduct, and the key differences between public and private hospitals. I now feel much more confident navigating these environments. Highly recommended!"
