So, believe it or not, this is my third book. I've written a weekly column for local rags since 1998. And prior to my early monthly spots for our local Chamber publication, I can honestly confess I never saw twenty years of published writing coming.
For the last twenty years, family has remained my story, my mission, and my passion. Every day has been all about learning, growing, and doing my best to honor my family, my dental team, and every patient we serve and see as our mom, dad, brother, sister, or child. You'll notice my writing is very personal and opinionated, even though for the most part it looks at dentistry, health, and relationships from the lighter side. The book is comprised of stories I've written for our local online and hard copy newspapers. When I reread the pieces during the publishing process, it seemed like there was always a sentence or two that touched my feelings.
You'll read about my team because they've become my family. You'll read about sports because those stories take me back to my mom, dad, brother, and the childhood I wouldn't trade for the world. You'll get virtual interviews with the Dalai Lama, politics, and my takes on pop culture. Sometimes the connection to health will be obvious; there are other times when you might need to use your imagination.
Every day I vow to be powerful, positive, and fearless and I warn you; some days I fail and sometimes I overdo it. After practicing dentistry for over 40-years, I can still reach par-5s in two and roll the wheels off stationary bikes. But I was never that flexible and Dental Assistants Kolleen and Dani have occasionally inferred my filter has become slightly more transparent.
I hope you enjoy the stories. I guess my theme is visits to the dentist can be a little scary but we're intent on listening, understanding, and being interested. We want you to feel safe and we want to help you become your own best healthcare advocate. We're on your side. We like you. We want the best for you.
Why not practice effective business, healthcare, and dentistry within a culture of love, humor, and compassion?
