When Liz, the Senior Associate Dean of my dental school, The University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine, paid me a visit last week, I started to think about how long I have been a dentist. The answer is a robust 35 years!
I graduated from dental school in 1981 and joined the Navy Dental Corps as a Lieutenant. After three years of active duty stationed at the Marine Corps Air Station in El Toro, CA, I entered private practice, finding a home in downtown Long Beach.
Yesterday I treated an eighty year old woman who has been my patient for over thirty years. Today I treated a patient whose mom was my first patient at my Long Beach location!
Thirty-five years!
