Consulting services

Consulting (administrative support = Cheske Allora cheskeallora@gmail.com).

There is a $775 (US) fee for consultation and all profits go toward supporting the Synergy Program (which is delivered free to Foreign Trained Dentists every year). Our consultation will provide you with US career counseling and customized feedback on CV's and personal statements.


The process and services are as follows:

  1. You email Cheske (our research lab manager) to get the process started.

  2. Cheske contacts you to help you…
    a) Fill career forms that will help us learn a little more about you
    b) Upload your current CV and personal statement
    c) Match you with one of our faculty
    d) Set up a time for a 1 hour consulting call with one of our faculty.
    e) Cheske also contacts the faculty who will begin reviewing your CV and personal statement to prepare for the consulting call.

  3. During the consulting call, you will receive customized feedback on your CV and personal statement. You can also ask questions and receive career counseling. Our consultants have mentored hundreds of dental students in the US (including foreign trained dentists) and many of our consultants are foreign trained dentists working in the US.

  4. After the feedback/consulting call, you will have another opportunity to submit an edited CV and personal statement.

  5. To complete the process, you will have a follow-up consulting call (45 minutes) which can include practice interview questions, career counseling or other professional support that you may need.

Are you ready to seek consulting? Checklist below:

  1. I need help/feedback strengthening my CV and personal statement for my application to a US Advanced Standing (or Specialty program) or I need career coaching/counseling.

  2. I have a current CV and personal statement that I am ready to submit for feedback

  3. I understand that this consulting service cannot guarantee an interview into any US program.

  4. I understand that the consultants won't write my CV or personal statement for me. They will provide rigorous feedback to help me improve my own CV and personal statement.

  5. I am able to pay the $775, non-refundable, consulting fee

If you answered "yes" to all of the above statements then you are ready to register for consulting. Please email our research lab manager, Ms. Allora (cheskeallora@gmail.com), to get started.


The Synergy Consulting/Coaching Program is so good that our outcomes have been published in the esteemed, peer-reviewed journal, the Journal of Dental Education. Since that publication, we have successfully mentored many more students.

Our research lab has been trying to support the careers of Foreign Trained Dentists for years now. We are serious about helping foreign trained dentists find success in the United States and here's another publication about the Offerings at US Dental Schools for Foreign Trained Dentists - did you know there are many programs that do NOT result in US licensure! This publication helps you choose what programs to select and what to look out for when considering applying to US dental schools.
