I attended Fortis of Norfolk VA in 2022 and graduated from the LPN program. My time at Fortis was great and my experiences were wonderful. I enjoyed my experience so much that I decided to return for my ADN. So in 2023 I entered the LPN to RN bridge program and on Oct 18, 2024 I graduated with honors. During my time at Fortis I've had the pleasure of meeting some wonderful people many of whom are now life long friends. The first person I encountered at Fortis was Kim Deaton, Kim is in admissions and I am going to honestly say she is the reason I am a graduate of Fortis, she kept nudging me towards my dreams. If it had not been for her I would still be trying to decide what I should do with my life. Upon first meeting Kim via phone I could tell she was a genuine person and once I enrolled she was always there to answer any and all questions I had. I remember having a family situation and she made sure to check on me and my children often. I would also like to give a special thank you to Justin Neely, Justin is the go to guy. He is very knowledgeable, has all the answers and if he is stumped on a question he does his best to get the answer for you. I also want to thanks some of my teachers for going above and beyond for the students of Fortis, Dr. Vicky Carroll, Dr. Frances Gray, Dr. Shasta Holston, Dr. Caday, Mrs. Ariel Velazquez, Mrs. Vivian Stevenson. These instructors I can say truly cares about the success of Fortis' students. When I decided to enroll in nursing school and I looked at all the different schools in the area and I read the reviews for each school, Fortis may not have had the best reviews. I thought to myself, who wrote these reviews, sometimes the source must be considered, you get out what you put in. This program is not easy, you can not get through it alone, there will be long nights of studying, lots of missed family events, and you may even shed a tear or two but in the end it is well worth it. If I had to do this journey all over again, I would 100 percent choose Fortis of Norfolk VA. If you are serious about a career in nursing, consider Fortis. Congratulations future nurses......

The Dental Assisting Program at Fortis College has been a great experience overall. Miss Ashli, the Program Director, is amazing. You might think she's a bit tough at first, but it's all to make you the best dental assistant you can be. The program is fast-paced, so it's really important not to miss any classes. Missing a day can feel like you're six weeks behind, which makes it challenging but also ensures you're always learning something new. I do wish they provided a paid internship, but I understand that's not possible in most situations. However, I appreciate that they find us an office for our externship and let us switch if we’re not happy with the first one. One thing that doesn't make sense to me is having to pay tuition while we're on externship. Since we're not on campus much during that time, it feels unfair. I'm not saying it's all peaches and cream—you might have some issues with how they run things. But overall, it's a good program, and the instructors genuinely want to see everyone succeed. If you're ready to work hard, Fortis College's Dental Assisting Program is a solid choice.
