Letters: Small-town dentists
April 01, 2019
You’re right, Dr. Nigel Schultz (
“It’s A Good Life,” March 4). One hundred percent. For those that can take the responsibility and revel in it, being a small-town dentist is everything. For the rest, they’ll more likely to be happy in a nine-to-five, corporate-style practice where they can produce good — and even great — products, earn big bucks and go home to their other world after work. As for the need for consultants, there’s nothing like word-of-mouth to build a huge loyal practice. Thanks for thinking of your patients and community. I hope you find a compatible partner and thrive for many years to come.
