I thoroughly love this rewarding career, but it was not like I was destined to become a dentist --- before attending the dental school, I was totally ignorant regarding dentistry. The dentist was the last person I wanted to see, and when I had to sit in a dental chair to get the treatment, it was hard to control the fear of the unknown coming in each step. Now as a dentist, though I get used to the sharp instruments and handpiece drilling sound, I never forget the memory of sitting in a dental chair as a scared patient. I do my best to understand each patient and I want all of them to walk out of the office with a positive dental experience. I promise myself that I will keep passion and compassion for patients throughout my career.
