When we had the need to get accredited quickly, Nicole was rapidly onto the job and managed to get us accredited within about 5 days. Her service was prompt, professional and it was reassuring to have the services of someone who knew what they were doing and how to deal effectively with Medicare. To anyone who needs their Full Suite accreditation, I would thoroughly recommend engaging Nicole’s services.

Thank you for your time and effort involved.

Dr Donal Kerrin, Skin Surveillance, Birtinya, Queensland – May 2012
I write in relation to my dealings with Choice Accreditation during the recent accreditation procedure for my medical imaging clinic.
Throughout the accreditation period, Choice Accreditation was extremely helpful, diligent, meticulous and knowledgeable as to the requirements of the accreditation programme. Everything was performed in a timely, no-fuss manner, with reminders sent well in advance if I had not attended to any requirements.
The effect of this was to turn what was potentially a difficult and stressful compliance procedure into one that was easy, stress-free adn unproblematic. All liaison with the accreditation authorities was performed by CA, which meant that I had a simple one-on-one communication with CA throughout.
Nicole Walton’s simple instructions and pleasant manner made the whole procedure pass by quickly without any complications whatsoever. I have no hesitation in recommending Choice Accreditation to any organisation requiring assistance with accredtiation.
Mark Mountford, Director VDIG, Victoria – July 2012
Dear Nicole, Thank you for your excellent work.

I would recommend Choice Accreditation to any Manager looking to take the burden out of their hands.

Melbourne Bayside Dental Specialists – September 2010
After purchasing my cone beam unit, the next step of navigating through the extensive red tape involved with gaining Medicare Accreditation was quite daunting and tedious. Thankfully, Nicole held my hand through the entire process, with most of the workload being carried out by her in a highly efficient, thoroughly competent and expedient manner. She was a sheer delight to work with and she showed incredible patience in guiding me through the laborious accreditation process. Without her professionalism and skill in this field, I would have had a traumatic time gaining accreditation for my practice. I would highly recommend her for anyone seeking to gain the same accreditation for their practice, in fact, I would say that it is a necessity to have someone of her ability and skill set by your side if you are in the process of achieving accreditation.
Nischal Singh BDSc FAACP, Sydenham Dental Group, Victoria – August 2010
