"Thanks again for a great course! You have put together an awesome program and I'm really happy I finally got around to signing up for the course and chose yours! I look forward to the re-cert in 3 years!!" E. Jansen - School Teacher in Vancouver, BC

"I was super impressed with the course, the professionalism, the knowledge and experience of both you and John but most of all your connection to making the course as current as possible. It seems the world of first aid needs part rigid structure and part flexible, creative common sense application." J. Blumel - ACMG Guide

"WMC provides top notch first aid training that is current and relevant. The information and value that WMC courses provide is unparalleled. I highly recommend WMC courses to anyone looking for quality first aid training.” Jordy Shepherd – Rescue Specialist and IFMGA Mountain Guide

"Thanks for putting up such an enjoyable course. I have been taking first aid courses over the last 25 years with WCB, Wilderness Alert, Slipstream and CSPS and I must say that yours was by far the most enjoyable, fun and also informative course. I will definitely recommend you to my peers and choose you guys for my next course." S. Kreuzer

"Thanks John, Best WFR recert I’ve ever taken!" I. Tomm

"The Wilderness First Responder course taught by Wilderness Medical Consultants was the most comprehensive I have taken to date. I enjoyed the credibility and real life experience provided in the instruction. It's one thing for a "First Aid Instructor" who has learned about first aid techniques from other instructors, who may or may not have actually seen and dealt with the injuries they are speaking about, to try and teach the material. It's another when the instructor can say "Well, last week when I was working in the ER, a person was presented to me with -------- and this is what it looked like and how I treated it". I felt this form of credibility to be very important. I found both John and Shelley to be good instructors; able to convey the material in an effective manner. I also found the scenario based training and adult based learning environment to be very beneficial. In a nutshell, I would recommend their course to others and I plan on sending other members of my team for the WIlderness First Responder Course again in the future." P. Hodges

“Thank you so much. No kidding, this is the best course I’ve ever taken. This course was educational, fun, exciting and memorable. I feel so much more confident as a leader in a first aid situation.” Teacher from Fort Simpson

“Honestly, it was all done professionally, the best first aid course I have taken” Teacher from Fort Providence

"Best of the Wilderness First Aid courses. Where else can you be taught by a current MD with a huge amount of wilderness experience who is also a great teacher? I've taken several courses and this one definitely gets my vote." J. Strauss

"The course was a great learning experience. I hope many others will be able to attend it in the future and gain the valuable knowledge of wilderness first aid to increase the safety of their own and other's trips to the backcountry." C. Moldenhauer

"The instructors were extremely knowledgeable! It was great that you not only are extremely strong medically but are both active in the mountains." R. Norman

"The instructors were knowledgeable and the combo of lived experience made the course so much more relevant, useful and applicable. Great job tying in lived experiences and practical scenarios with medical experience." L. Fownes

"I have taken several first aid courses over the years and have found the Advanced Wilderness First Aid course presented by Wilderness Medical Consultants to be the most thorough and enjoyable course I have taken.
