Personally, I'm beginnig to feel that the whole thing is becoming
pathetic... and for once, that is NO JOKE on my part. If she were at
LEAST an elderly ex-dental assistant who had worked for enough years,
and for a couple of dentist, and so that she had a handle on what the
real world of dentistry is all about, I would listen. Such a person
would be in a position to give some relevant evaluations from the other
side of the chair. This is not the case.
