Pima Medical Institute - Renton

Molly Flynn is the best instructor I have ever had! She encourages learning and growth while also fostering a sense of familiarity and comfort. Thanks to her constant support and welcoming demeanor I have felt welcomed and have thrived in my classes in the DA program. I genuinely could not have asked for a better teacher! Love Molly Flynn!

Molly Flynn is one of the greatest instructors I have ever had. She goes above and beyond to ensure we understand all the material and feel confident in our skills. Her passion for dentistry and teaching shows in every lesson. She is extremely supportive, inclusive, and makes sure nobody is left behind. I truly feel that I am in great hands with Ms. Flynn.

My academic experience with PIMA was nothing but amazing regarding my instructors/course work. Molly Flynn & Shawnacee Frazier were two of the best instructors & individuals I could have asked for. They both fostered such a loving and encouraging atmosphere to help all of their students explore & expand their knowledge in dental assisting. The reason I am leaving a one star review is due to how poorly administration takes care of their students, they protects the aggressors. When you spend a significant amount of money to get an education you expect to be kept safe & protected in that institute, the bare minimum. That is not how my experience was at PIMA’s renton campus. While i was on my externship there was a previous classmate in my class who created rumors about me saying some pretty nasty stuff. I was disgusted by it but there is not much you can do regarding rumors. The rumors eventually turned into harassment. That student created multiple fake phone numbers to get ahold of me after continuously telling him to stop & blocking the previous numbers. Those messages continued for about a month & inevitably turned sexual. When I brought these screenshots to administration concerned as to why they would keep a man like that enrolled in their school, which is primarily woman dominated they didn’t have much of an answer for me. They said they couldn’t do anything about it because there was “no proof” that is who was texting me. I was also encouraged to contact local authorities by the administration because that was the only protection i could get from this student. I later learned that there are MULTIPLE women who were a victim to this disgusting man, who all brought it to administration & yet again nothing was done. The student was still enrolled. Due to my experience with that I cannot recommend anyone attend this school for the sole fact that they protect the wrong people in very real, scary situations. Heaven forbid another situation like this arises in the future but if it does i hope the administration can handle it better in the victim’s favor, rather than just caring about making a couple bucks.

My instructor Kristina Nancarrow was an amazing, helpful, and incredibly dedicated teacher! I learned everything I needed to know to be great in my field and more. Dr. Petersen was an incredible helping hand throughout my experience at PIMA!

I went to Pima Renton in 2016 I had the best teachers. They made class fun, I took the MA program. only issue i had was with Dawn. She was rude and disrespectful to me. But other then that the best school.

I loved coming to Pima so much that I recommended my family members to come. My mom also came here before and she told me this was a good place to come to as well. My instructors for my program DA was Ms. Flynn and Mrs. Frazier they were one of the best instructors I have had before. They are truly dedicated to helping their students become the best versions of themselves. They are always pushing us to work our hardest and supporting their students. They always created a positive learning environment where all the students were comfortable and were heard. Personally, the lessons plans were very organized and it was easy to understand. They both possess a passion and dedication when it comes to their students and I know that they will continue that. I had a very good experience coming here to enrich my knowledge. Thank you!!

Molly Flynn goes above and beyond to provide her students with all the assistance and resources needed for success. i appreciate her ability to make classwork enjoyable and inclusive to prepare us all for our future career in the dental field

Overall, I genuinely enjoyed my experience at Pima. Going into the Veterinary Assistant program, I wasn’t sure if it was really for me. My instructor, Kristina, made my experience positive and really instilled the fire and passion I was looking for!

This was a great accelerated program. The experience here is all about your attitude and how receptive you are to feedback. My instructors were absolutely delightful and changed the path of my life. Dianna (my student coordinator) was an absolutely amazing woman to work with. She works very hard ensuring you have all of the tools to succeed in your externship and will do everything in her power to not only make sure your clinical site is a good fit, but to make sure you are happy with the results! Thank you to the administration and everyone involved with my education I am now on my way to becoming a nurse which is something I’ve always dreamed of doing. Come in with a positive open mindset and the program will benefit you in so many ways.

I loved my experience in Pima's vet assistant program! The hands-on training and essential curriculum really prepared me for the field. Just make sure to attend class regularly to stay on track.
