I have to take the operative portion of the WREB exam again in August at USC. This is out of state for me and I am worried about finding patients. I have read mixed reviews about using Western Dental Consultants or LuLau to find my patients. I dont care about spending the money, I just want reliable patients with good lesions. Has anyone used them RECENTLY?? Can you share your recent experience??

Sorry to hear that u have to take it again..
experience with lulau:
I used them just for the perio (my pt backed out last minute) The guy who takes care of all the paperwork is really nice. The dental hygienist who assigns u pts is absolutely horrible! Patient provided was decent. Don't know about operative. Used them in May.

I just had to reply to this as I just took the WREB with LuLau, and the two restorative patients I worked on were NOT the ones I was promised. I feel like I was ripped off, as the lesions were anything but ideal.

I used Western Dental Consultants for my WREB at USC in 2015. I am a recently graduated specialist who was out of touch with operative and endo for years. When I heard the WDC cost, I hesitated but I had no other choice due to my circumstances. It is expensive but you get what you paid for. I got the full package. WDC arranged for patients; provided excellent one-on-one training; provided an excellent dental assistant based in USC and all the instruments for the exam. I have no regrets since I had a less stressful exam experience and I passed WREB! So basically, if you can afford them, they are definitely worth it. Good luck guys!
