  • Occasionally informative

    I started listening to this when I began DH school I thought it would be useful to keep up with DH products and the profession. I started to realize the host Andrew is constantly putting his personal opinion and not really shining a positive impact on the DH profession, prefer to listen to episodes when it’s other hosts

  • Don’t waste your time

    This podcast is horrible. 3 hygienists talking over each other and can’t even pronounce words correctly. 🤦🏼‍♀️unnecessary cussing all just makes you sound unprofessional. Don’t waste your time.

  • Absolutely Love

    I have been a hygienist for while and love what I do. I am new listening to this podcast and I am so glad I found it. I listen on my drives to work and kid functions. It helps to keep me updated on what’s happening in the hygiene world and it’s fun. I even send some of the podcast to my hygiene Divas txt group.

    Update- The Hygiene Diva txt group still loves Tale of Two Hygienist ❤️
