I attended the program in 2003 and would highly recommend it to anyone. The experience was invaluable. The program also allows students to interact with professionals at the top of their fields.

I attended PGSHC this past summer (2005). It was an amazing experience and I am so glad I had it. I feel that I am prepared for college far more than most of my classmates.

This truly is an amazing, but rigorus, opportunity for any student interested in health care. The work required is demanding, but the benefits far outweigh any negative. I attended in 2005; this program is incredible.
