What happens when the dream finally comes true? Enduring years and years of careful planning and hard work to become a dentist and small business owner, you finish school, pass the boards, and feel ready to conquer the world. Eager to provide quality care and help patients, you create your dream practice.  You build it, so the patients will come. Right? Finding yourself in the school of hard knocks and learning by trial and error, you quickly realize that you do not have a clue about running a business! No one warned you it would be like this! Written by a dentist, 100 Things I HATE/Love About Dentistry is the culmination of years in private practice and utilizes real life situations to provide the answers to questions you never knew to ask. Dr. Samuel cleverly uses sarcasm and humor to deliver pearls of wisdom that benefit any small business owner!
