“Completing and passing the DUMC exam was hugely rewarding on both a professional and personal level. I returned to work with renewed confidence in my knowledge and skills, knowing I had met the benchmark of a reputable college. It was also reassuring to see such a diverse group of candidates—doctors, nurses and paramedics—reflecting the reality of urgent care. Preparing for the exam gave me real insight into the system, common presentations, and a deeper understanding of why patients seek urgent care.”

— Ben Sayner, Paramedic
