Quotes
“My mom has been a dental assistant for over 25 years.”
“It sold me immediately when I could help the patient feel more at ease.”
“Because I didn’t learn about it in school, and my teachers didn’t have that clinical belief I assumed it couldn’t be important.”
“Director of Hygiene isn’t for everyone, it’s a big jump.”
“I ignore job prerequisite descriptions. Apply for the job, and let them read your resume and decide if you are qualified.”
“Start with the why.”
“We are providers and we should be compensated as such.”
