All complaints are justified. They are buying out the surg tech students so they don't get sued and the surg tech program is being discontinued. If you got screwed by Lamson on this, contact Delta Education.

Lamson College Surgical Tech Program Is A Joke

I attended Lamson for 6 months of the Surgical Tech program and 3 months in I realized what a joke this school was. 2 of the 3 dummies were broken and the instrument trays were incomplete. My scrubs didn't even match. My instructor kept saying that everyting was a gray area. It is either sterile or non sterile! How does a gray area work? I wouldn't want them operating on me. I was so upset when i was told that there was a 9 month wait just to get to the extern site because they are so backed up. So that means 10 months of crappy schooling, plus another 9 month wait and then maybe I Could get an extern in the same city or I could be placed somewhere else in the state. They failed to mention that too. Amazing! I'm just hoping I can get reimbersed for my loans i had to take out.

You are so right! All complaints about the surgical tech program are correct! I speak from experience. If you dropped out because of this crappy program, contact Delta Education, they oversee Lamson and now are aware of the complete sham this program is. They stepped in and offered to buy out surg tech students. THEY paid off my loan (almost $32, 000 when it was all said and done) AND gave me $5, 000 so I wouldn't sue them. Lamson is in some serious trouble over this and they are scrambling to head off lawsuits. You are not the only one who got screwed. I'm sorry it happened to you too.

Lamson College Terrible place

Brilliant Idea! Unfortunately, that decision might be made by the hospitals that don't want to hire Lamson students while I'm stuck paying off student loans with my paycheck from Costco. Regardless, I'm sure that very idea has crossed a few minds but where do you get a student loan before this one is paid off? Actually, it's that exact mentality that keeps the program substandard. Blame the student. 'We teach a program that even local hospitals are refusing the free labor but if you aren't learning it's your fault' I'm sorry but that attitude is only for programs that produce techs that hospitals want.

For the amount each student is paying, Lamson needs to make changes so the hospitals are calling THEM and asking when they have another class graduating. If the instructors are as good as you say they are, they should want that too and certainly be able to come up with the ways to do it but to know that the majority of your students aren't getting the skills needed and not do anything...and still collect a paycheck?...thats a cop out and lazy.

This school is getting 25, 000 dollars per student! Do you want to tell me they can't come up with instructors that teach ? Quit downing the students for expecting what the program promised. Quit downing the student for wanting to be taught when their in school and don't down them for wanting teachers instead of surg techs that are tired of working weekends and being on call.

I was also part of the surge tech program at Lamson and it is a scam. I will be contacting you via email. All other student scammed by the surge tech program email us or post on this topic. You can reach me at:
lamsonsurgetechlawsuit@gmail.com
Lamson Lied promissing externships during the 13 month program. Once you are in the program you find out the wait for externships is being pushed out longer (6 months etc.)
Teachers/Instructors were ex-Lamson students who could not get jobs at real hospitals.
Inconsistant Instructors: One Instructor trains you on their way and the next Instructor tells you you are doing it wrong
Instructors humiliate students.
Teachers/Instructors gave test answers away to the students so they would pass the class no matter what. I have the test answers provided by the Instructors who were too busy telling us about getting boob-jobs, bar fights and doing time in tent city instead of instructing/teaching us.
Do not ask any questions because the Instructor will not be able to answer the questions
School Director, Dean, & Administrators unfair
Receptionists dodge phone calls and sends callers to voicemails that are never returned.
It is pretty bad when Hospitals will not take the FREE labor (the externships) in this economy.
Join us in the fight we want to hear from you if you were involved or are still a part of this scam by Lamson/Delta College. If you are in another Lamson College or Delta College program that was a scam or miss-managed contact us at:

Lamson College awful fraud

Beware of Lamson College. They offer a surgical technologist program that they claim will take one year to complete. 10 months of classroom work and a 2 month 'externship' in a local hospital. Once this is completed, you are told you will be ready to seek employment in the surg tech field.

Because of this '12 month' program bait, the cost of this program is $25, 000.00 (Yes, twenty five thousand dollars), but as we were all told, we would be out in the field earning money after this great program.

Rumors began within the first 2-3 months of class. Externship positions were 'backed up' and 'some' were having to wait a 'few' months before being able to complete this program. No one from the staff/admin would address concerns, basically saying not to worry about it, they were working on the problem.

This 'problem' was never addressed internally obviously. There's a group of us who completed our classroom courses in June and have yet (it is mid-November now) to be placed in a local hospital... we have been out of the class room for 6 months now.

Parents budgets, student budgets and plans have all been put on hold while we wait for the school to find a hospital to place us. And, the school continues (!) to accept new students.

We don't know what to do, and know that we have been screwed, so this is a warning to anyone thinking of attending Lamson College (for anything!), run, do not walk to another College. All Lamson wants is your money, they don't give a crap about what happens after that. If you have just started, get out now. Cut your losses.

Cheating thieves. Liars who should be prosecuted. Leaving students high & dry -- taking all the money & run out of town. They should all be in jail.
