I swear, I need to smack everyone in my dentist's office. I called and the receptionist all but begged me to come in today to fill a cancellation spot. I told her I didn't have childcare. "Oh, we can watch them, the dentist isn't here." Um, no. I'm not leaving my 2 1/2 year old who will not sit still and my 8 month old in the care of people I barely know in an office full of sharp, pointy dental tools. I had to tell her 3 times that Owen is a handful and isn't the type to sit still and read a book while I'm in the chair getting the tartar scraped off my teeth. I can come in next week when C can come home for lunch and watch the kids for me.
They're desperate for patients. After our old dentist left, the new one inherited the practice and people are leaving left and right (I'm planning on it, too, after the nightmare work she did on my last crown.) She actually had a little chat with DH a few days ago when he was in getting a cleaning. She said she understood people missed Dr. Bernie but that she was trying to get feedback and adapt to keep people happy. Whatev.
