What influenced you to choose dentistry as a career?
I was originally scheduled to take the MCAT, but my long-time dentist saw me for a visit and we had a good discussion about work-life balance, so I canceled my MCAT and here I am. One thing I liked was that I always saw the same dentist (and I saw him a lot having grown up in the ’90s on Kool-Aid and Gushers) but I never seemed to see the same primary care doctor as the residents in the local hospital and associated family practice were always coming and going. I shadowed my dentist quite a bit after our initial discussion and got to see how he cared for his patients and was able to get to know them.
