Excellent course. The e-learning part is good as you can do it in your own time. The course with Dr Maza is very good. He has a ton of knowledge and will always take the time to explain and be sure you understand. You get a lot of actual hands on experience. Injections, IV and that all done on actual people and not just shown on a video. Highly recommend going there.

This is the ONLY course I’ve taken in my many years of diving that’s led by a physician–highly trained AND motivated! Dr. Maza displayed an in-depth breadth of knowledge that he confidently relayed in an easily digestible manner. HIs enthusiasm of his craft and the subject matter created an eager environment conducive to genuine learning. The vivid instructor-led medical re-enactment scenarios seamlessly complimented lecture which also supported real learning and not just rote memorization. The convenience of being able to attain my OGUK medical while there made this entire experience more-so invaluable! I’ll definitely return for further recertifications AND updating of OGUK physicals. Dr. Maza’s bedside manner and professionalism is top-notched. If anyone is in need of an initial DMT certification/renewal or if in need of an OGUK physical Dr. Maza is, hands down, THE doctor to choose!

Training with Dr.Maza in Cuidad del Carmen was without a doubt my best training experience. This was the 4th DMT course I have taken over the years of being a diver and will be using Trauma Training in Mexico for all of my renewals. Dr. Maza is the top diving Doctor in Mexico and one of the best in the world, he is very active in the diving community which brings a very realistic approach to the training. You can also get diving/Oguk medicals any morning before class from Dr.Maza!
Del Carmen is a quick 1hr 20min flight from Mexico City, has cheap hotels and restaurants, with a great beach and nightlife for everyone looking for a get-away. Very safe area, as it has been a hub for Mexico’s oil and gas industry for over 20years.
Highly Recommend!
