Even The dent on the hood. I thought he will have a hard time fixing because it was located at a area of the hood that has no access from behind because of the frame support. But he fixed in 5 mins and I can’t even tell where the dent is now.

PDR is a minimally invasive procedure. No drills or paint or filler is used. If they have to use any of those on your car it is not PDR. Not every dent can be fixed with PDR however most of those annoying parking lot dents will disappear. You might be surprised at what PDR can do for that dent in your car.
I'm pretty sure he was asking about potential need to drill access holes to get the PDR tools behind the panel, NOT drilling holes in the panel itself (what would be the point of THAT?)
It sounds like the answer to that is still no, no need to drill access holes in door frame or hood/trunk frame, etc.
Is it in a PDR guy's domain of expertise to do something like drill holes to pull a door though? I'm eyeing that high mileage car in for sale with a slightly dented door frame.
I think they drill a hole in the side like inside the tailight or door frame where it's not visible from the outside and insert a tool in there to push it out. Then they're supposed to plug the hole somehow.But I don't know for sure.
