Bill,

I wanted to personally thank you for the experience that you provided over the last two weeks. Your method of teaching is great….everything comes together [so] clearly by the end of the 12 days. My application is on its way to ABC.

I feel very fortunate to have been in your class and wanted to wish you the best of luck in all that you do.

Take Care,
S.F.

 
I took the exam preview from Bill and learned more in a day and a half than I did from 120 hours on another course.

Bill,

I want to thank you again for the excellent job you did teaching us pedorthics. Not only did you make the classes interesting but you empowered us with knowledge so that we could help people .

Sincerly,

B. M.

 

Please tell Bill I said Thank You, very much. He has an incredible gift and is a very special person

RN, CFCN, C-PED!

 

I am so excited!  I have taken the test several times but it wasn't until Bill took the time to help me understand how important it is to study the muscles that I finally passed.

Tell Bill thank you so much!

S.T.

In addition to owning and operating his own pedorthic labs, he was also the Director of Pedorthics at Oklahoma State University where he created a 1st class orthotics lab capable of doing a tremendous volume.

Bill believes in a comprehensive approach to pedorthics education that not only teaches the student how to make excellent products, but also gives them an understanding of why they're made a particular way. 1,300 pedorthic professionals have sat in Bill's classes. See what Bill's students say in their own words by clicking the Testimonials link above.

Kathy Meanwell is the Director of Admissions at ISP

Kathy originally worked in medical billing before moving to the practical side of healthcare as an EKG Technician. Later she moved back into the administrative side of the business when she was recruited by Bill Meanwell to run the office at ISP. Although her formal title might sound like she has a single duty regarding admissions, she also holds all of the other office positions from above. If you've ever run a small business without the benefit of employees, you know what we're talking about. When you need something at ISP outside of class, you'll probably be talking to Kathy.
