Option 2 : A participant brings his/her own patients to Gisborne for treatment during the Course Clinical sessions on scheduled Module dates. The participant is free to charge his/her patients and bring them for as many module sessions for various staged clinical procedures, as they wish. All costs for treatment are incurred by the participant. No additional fees are charged for clinical sessions.
Option 3 : A participant schedules a clinical session at his/her practice and invites Course Faculty to their practice to mentor them during their clinical sessions, when they treat their own patients.
