LBW Training Center has an amazing staff!! The learning environment is very positive as is the entire experience. This was my 1st BLS class and I learned so much and feel confident in my experience and skills taught! Thank you LBW!!! read more

Was very easy to book on line. Received confirmation email quickly. When calling with questions the staff was very helpful. Nice up to date equipment and clean!!! Would recommend to anyone who has to get or renew their acls/bls. Great instructors! read more

Scheduled me in on short notice. Very informative and took extra time to go into greater detail about medications and ACLS algorithms. 10/10. Excellent experience. read more

I was in a pinch to get my BLS for hospital credentialing and Frank with LBW helped me out. He met with me early before a big training he was doing and passed off my skills portion. LBW was great to work with and I highly recommend them to everyone. Thanks again. read more

LBW has always been super flexible and the instructors with whom I have had contact (ACLS, PALS, and CPR/BLS) have always been thorough helpful and fair. I highly recommend LBW. read more

I've been coming here for 2 years. The first time I came was to get my ACLS for the first time. My company offers the ACLS class on site, free of charge. My first experience with the ACLS at my work was horrible. I lost so much confidence, I was never given the book, never told how to prepare for it. I was set up to fail and even told to just get through it and you can figure it out later. That doesn't work well with me, but they're able to get 8-10 people through BLS and ACLS in 4 hrs. So what does that tell you? So, I knew this wasn't going to work for me and I really wanted to know the stuff and it's not always good to take this class when it's your peers who (people you directly work with) teach the class. People judge you. So, that's when I came across LBW training center. After taking the 2 day ACLS class with Dr. Messer, I felt like I could teach the class and he takes it very seriously and expects you to take it seriously as well. He's fun, but serious about knowledge and being prepared to lead a megacode. I started to get some confidence. 2 years later, my ACLS was due again and I just finished the 2 day ACLS this past weekend with Dr. Messer and Jeremy (Jeremy finished up the second half of the class on Sunday). I prefer to take the 2 day class rather than just the renewal because it's just more enforcement and repetition that is beneficial to truly learning. I also took my BLS in June with Dr. Messer and an EKG class with Jeremy. Both are exceptional and very intelligent, yet, can come down to your level. Again, I walked away this weekend feeling very comfortable and knowledgeable. Again, it's something I choose to do and pay for myself rather than just get it done for free at work and then not feel I've learned anything. It's worth it for me to pay for it myself and take it at LBW. I urge anybody that has to get ACLS to do it here!!!! At least the first time so you can gain confidence and when you leave you know you've been well trained and equipped. I'm actually considering going back every year to keep things really fresh in my mind. I think 2 years is just too long to go without any training. You forget too much. Ian at the front desk is always so friendly and helpful with whatever you need. Promptly responds to emails. They have so many wonderful people there. They'll be seeing me for many more years. I want to say everything is perfect, but nothing is perfect all the time. I wish they had critical care classes that I could take annually just to keep those skills up as well. The one thing that I dusky particularly care for this past weekend is that I had a different instructor for the practice megacode on Saturday and then a completely different instructor for the testing of the megacode on Sunday. I didn't have Dr. Messer or Jeremy for either of those. I was really disappointed with that. The other instructors (I'm guessing were trying to obtain their ACLS instructor certification) were very scattered and started to confuse the group with conflicting information. It really ruined my perfect experiences with Dr. Messer and Jeremy. I will return to LBW, but I will insist that I keep Dr. Messer through my whole class, practice and test. read more

I recently took the PALS course and Dr. Meser did a great job teaching the class. I would highly recommend using LBW training center. The staff is all very pleasant and Dr. Meser provided the class information in a very organized and concise manner so that it was easier to retain. read more

ACLS training and certification through LBW Training Center was an A+ experience. The instructor, Dr. Meser (John E. Meser, DO) was engaging and informative. He repeated important information, which was very helpful, especially for first-time attendees. He ran his "codes" in a non-threatening manner and always explained details when the student was confused or had questions. He is extremely knowledgeable and teaches Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support according to the American Heart Association guidelines. I highly recommend medical skills training through the LBW Training Center, which is offered in numerous locations throughout Arizona. The location in Tempe offered a comfortable environment, free coffee, water, and Otis Spunkmeyer cookies (what a warm treat!). There are convenient locations for lunch which are in within walking distance and the training center offers a refrigerator, microwave, and kitchen utensils for your use. Dr. Meser has put together an informative slide show which displays nicely on the wall, incorporated with American Heart Association videos and breaks down each skill into small segments, which also was very helpful. Be sure to brush up on some content material and take the on-line pretest prior to attending class. This will help make you feel much more confident in your knowledge and abilities and aid in the flow of learning for all attendees. You must have a current provider manual (an AHA requirement), which can be obtained on your own, or conveniently at the training site (please call the location to ensure they are in stock). Thank you, LBW! read more

Excellent instruction for BLS and ACLS. I would recommend this location for education for healthcare and lay providers.

I would recommend this place to anyone! I first called and spoke with Amanda. She was so sweet, patient, and answered all of my questions over the phone. They have great customer service! She also emailed me the confirmation/receipt email with the times/dates and address of the location. There was also an email for a class reminder which was nice. I scheduled for a BLS class and an ACLS class. Since I'm a new graduate nurse and it was my first time taking ACLS Amanda was able to schedule me with another first timer and also put me in a smaller group. It was great! I took the BLS class about two days before the ACLS class however you can do the BLS and ACLS within the two day ACLS class. The BLS class was fun and it was given by Dr. Meser. The first day of ACLS was taught by Dr. Meser and he made it interesting with facts and provided a reason and/or explanation for each step so every step made sense. I was lucky because only two other students were scheduled for that day and one of them didn't show up. It was me, another student, and the instructor which is the smallest class he has ever taught. The second day was taught by Scarlett. She was very energetic and very funny. She made the class interesting. Scarlet also had us take turns and practice which really made it click. The place itself was clean and well organized. All of the students were nice and the instructors encourage us to work together when we practice. Since I have had such a great experience here I will be coming back and taking the PALS and any other classes they have! read more
