Pima Medical Institute - Chula Vista

"My experience here was wonderful, I attended the Dental Assistant program. I had a great teacher, her name is Miss J, she always pushed me to my best, even when I didn’t trust myself she always did in me, and I’m thankful that I had a wonderful experience and great learning environment, best tools to learn and great school."

"As someone who struggled in going to school. And now finally being done with it I couldn’t have done it without the support of my Dental Assistant program teacher Ms.J (Ms.Joselle) for always giving me the extra push to do better . Going here has made me a better person and help me make friends and peruse in a better career for myself"

"Ms. J is an amazing teacher! She has a knack for explaining complex topics in a way that's easy to understand. Her passion for teaching shines through, and she always goes the extra mile to help her students. I appreciate how she creates a positive, engaging and hands on learning environment in the dental assistant program. Thanks to Ms. J, I've not only learned a lot but also enjoyed the process."

"In my honest opinion; you will never find a better school than PIMA! I went here in 2015 for the Medical Administration Program and then again in 2023 for the Medical Assistant Program; and I had a great experience both times. When it comes to PIMA it literally feels like you're joining a family that wants to help and support you, and not just another number that they are trying to fill. That feeling and experience honestly starts as soon as you walk in. The girls at the front desk are phenomenal, I love Ms. Deborah (My admin Coordinator). She is so good at connecting with you and has a gift for really guiding people in the right direction. Then Edna and Lorena will do all they can to help you financially be able to attend. I'm so thankful for their kindness and patience and willingness to help! Then the instructors are absolutely stupendous!!! Shout out to all my instructors Mrs. Wilder, Mrs B, Ms. C, and Mrs. K, and even the new instructor that came in later on Ms. A!! There is no words to describe the gratitude I feel towards these amazing group of women who always had each students back, were great at teaching the material, and who encouraged us each step of the way even when we didn't believe in ourselves. Then you have hidden gems like Mr. Vince or AKA (Fix it Felix)!! I don't know what he does I just know he does everything around here!! I was having a hard day, and Mr. Vince came up to me and asked how I was doing. I told him, but he replied " You can never have a bad day; you can only have bad moments and good moments, but never a bad day." Him telling me that helped out a lot and changed my perspective! I also want to thank Ms. Monique (The school Counselor); I had a road bump and had to leave, but she really helped me to get back in so I can complete the program. PIMA not only creates a family atmosphere, but they really equip you to be prepared for the field you want to go into. Although this journey was not easy, I really thank God for the experience I had at PIMA. I can truly say I'm leaving feeling confident in the skill set and knowledge I have learned at PIMA that will help me be successful in my career!"
