Testimonials from 2009 MFI Graduates:

“The Medical Fitness Institute was a very valuable event and unique in that the group was small enough that we could network and share so much information with the other attendees during and between all of the speakers.  I liked that we were together as a group with every speaker.  The speakers were incredible, covered a wide range of topics, shared real life experiences and events.  Thanks for the terrific workshop!”
-          Kay Benward, Supervisor, Healthplex- Capital Regional Medical Center

“This event brought together people from different facility sizes, locations, and populations.  MFI gave me an opportunity to "rub elbows" and find out other information from larger and more experience facilities.  The scheduled activities were excellent and gave an opportunity for all of the attendees to really get to know each other from a personal aspect.  I think it [MFI] will be a great asset to anyone who can attend future conferences and I for one will do my best to be at every one.”
-          Leland Kaimimoku, Assistant Director, West Texas Lifestyle & Rehab Center
