Student Mentorship Testimonial

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Dr. Val as I call him is one of a kind. He has been an exceptional preceptor, extremely knowledgeable, patient, and helpful, always ready to answer my “million” questions in the simplest way possible. He always made sure that I was comfortable in the work environment and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Working with Dr. Val as my preceptor has been very rewarding and a great tool for accomplishing my educational goals.

Val has been a great preceptor who loves to teach, answer questions, and has been truly inspiring.He was gracious enough to allow me to be a student at his practice two school terms and his approach to client care is something I will try and mirror. He cares about his clients, staff, and students and helps to prepare the students for success. I feel a step closer to becoming a provider as well and some credit is due here to Val.

I had the pleasure to spend 2 semesters with Val. I was having a difficult time locating a preceptor and the deadline was approaching.He responded to my LinkedIn post within days. I sent him all my paperwork and he completed them swiftly. He is beyond a wonderful preceptor. He was welcoming, kind, and intelligent and his patients love him. He took the time to debrief each patient to let me know the rationale of the medication that he chose and the mechanism of action. He also would review genetic testing results with me which no one has ever done before.

I had been a psychiatric RN for many years, but I was nervous about pursuing a more challenging and demanding role as a nurse practitioner who would be responsible for diagnosing and prescribing medications to individuals of all ages. I knew that having a preceptor that loved to teach and share their knowledge would be invaluable. Luckily, I had the pleasure of having Dr. Val as my preceptor during my psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner master’s program. Dr. Val immediately made me feel welcome, was always positive, answered all the numerous questions that I had, and never made me feel foolish for asking questions.

Getting a clinical site involves a lot of hussle, but Dr Valerie made the start of my clinical experience easy. The moment I called him, he accepted me right away without any issue. Every day at his clinic is a new experience. He opened his schedule for the students for classes and explained every question to the lowest way of understanding. The therapists and the rest of the staff were ready to contribute in one way or the other to assist the students. I am grateful from the bottom of my heart for encouraging me in my studies, and you never seized to assist when I call for professional assistance. Thank you sir, thank you to the staff, thank you Desert Bolt Behavioral LLC.
