My Experience at *the Institute of Dental Sciences Sehora, Jammu has been immensely Wonderful during my Course Duration. I Have learned a lot, not just academically but in all other aspects regarding Patient Care, Patient Satisfaction, and proper Hygiene maintenance along with my Career development. The Faculty members have been so supportive, Motivating, and Encouraging throughout my Journey.

After Pursuing BDS from this College, I got selected for my Master in Hospital Administration (MHA)  at Guru Nanak Dev University, Amritsar and the things I learned in my previous College helped me greatly in my Master too. All the teachings and enlightenment that I have gathered from the faculty members of IDS helped me immensely to work efficiently in FORTIS ESCORTS HOSPITAL AMRITSAR as a *Quality Trainee* in the Aspects of Patient Care, Continuous Quality Improvement, and Patient Satisfaction. After all those things, I’m grateful that I’m working now in the Renowned Hospital i.e. the State of Art Centrally Located in Jammu City ” *The Ankur Maitrika Multispecialty Hospital” as a Quality Manager* and the experiences that I have gathered so far have equipped me with patient care experience and skills which are effective as well as efficient in Healthcare Administration.

I feel privileged to get an opportunity to study for my Bachelor in Dentistry at IDS, Jammu. I always feel the great contribution of IDS towards me is giving me motivation and confidence through both academic and personality grooming activities. The early patient contact program was a big boost during our preclinical years. The academic leadership was excellent and everybody was working there as a team, which trained my leadership qualities. Today, I am quite successful in my profession and for this, I owe my deep sense of obligation to IDS.

A beautiful and memorable time for me at IDS during my BDS at IDS Jammu. The system of Education was rightly blended with academic-co curricular and extracurricular activities.

My education at IDS was very much the right decision of my parents to motivate me to come to this profession and to study at IDS, Jammu. The academic environment and campus life of the college were so nicely planned that I not only enjoyed my education but also got several platforms to groom my personality. All my teachers were too much compassionate to our academic growth and mentored us to get confidence in our careers. Today, whatever I have achieved in my professional career it is due to the right guidance of my teachers, for which I shall be ever grateful to them.
