Testimonials

We found Cavity to be amazing help. They listen to your needs and go above and beyond to get you the trainee that you need.

I did my course years ago. It was classroom based one night per week. I think I would prefer to be more ‘hands on’ like it is now. Cavity really are a great company to work for. I truly believe that there expertise will ensure the next generation are amazing!

I did mine over an apprenticeship but the company my employer used wasn’t great and I didn’t get much support. Although I passed I can only imagine the length that Cavity have gone to to ensure that the students feel supported. As an employee, its super!

Vikki George

I have been a dental nurse for 23 years and I love it just as much as the day I started if not more. I love being able to pass on my many years of wisdom and ways onto the younger folk. Which is why I joined the Cavity Training team.

I love that my job role takes me into many different environments. Prisons and hospitals being my favourites.  With experience in everything from Sedation to Perio and Implants – I consider myself an extremely capable nurse completing my assessor and Tutor qualifications in 2022.

Being a military wife I have moved around a lot. This included a 3 year posting to Cyprus which was amazing. Though this is the only time I didn’t nurse, I really missed it and couldn’t wait to get back into the surgery. I love being active and enjoy spinning and combat classes at the gym. I’m also a foodie and a feeder! I heal with food!
