When I was younger, I wanted to go into something with the sciences, but I wasn’t really sure. My community had a dentist that I was a patient in their practice, and he loved his job. He loved everything about his work, so I spent a summer working in his practice, and I loved it.
I fell in love with it. His patients loved him, and he loved his patients, so it made me want to do dentistry, so that’s how I got here. So the most rewarding part for me in dentistry is patient care, so I love the opportunity to be able to help a patient to move through whatever fears or anxieties they have, and be happy about their smile at the end, the way their teeth look, and more importantly, the way they feel about the work that’s been done to them, that they’ve received ultimate care, and they feel as if this is a second home for them when it comes to taking care of their health, so that for me is the icing on the cake.

I was not able to get to my appointment on Tuesday due to the snow. I called early in the morning to let your office know. I asked for a call back to reschedule, which I have not received. I would prefer an afternoon appointment with Jen. I have been seeing Jen for many years. I have to ask for all appointments in the afternoon, due to the Lasix I must take first thing in the morning, and I need to be in my own home near my bathroom. Thank you.
