Member Feedback on Local Anaesthesia

The use of videos was really useful in demonstrating the different LA techniques.
The local anaesthesia module is outstanding. I found the notes feature very useful and I really enjoyed it.
Really good demonstrations on LA techniques.
I loved this module as I felt it was very clear, to the point with lovely video to demonstrate the techniques.
Fundamental topic, discussed in an easy and clear way without useless over-complications.
