 You Know the Drill

Welcome to my life.  The life of a reluctant dentist.  This book charts the course of a nervous student dealing with people from all walks of life, from exploding angry abscesses to exploding angry people, both in and out of the chair.


When I was a wet-behind-the-ears school sixth former, it seemed like a really good idea to go to university and study the teeth, gums and mouth.  I’m still trying to work out why I thought that was a good idea.


The definition of a dentist mentions competencies in biomedical knowledge, surgical dexterity, and critical thinking. What it fails to include is being an unpaid therapist, getting splattered in pus, coaxing nutters out from under the dental chair, having the police storm your surgery, and dealing with patients who think a crown is something you put on your head, then try and sue you when you say otherwise.


Written as a form of therapy – to offload on paper – this book gives a frank account of life both in and out of the surgery.  So, take a seat in the waiting room and I’ll see you shortly in Chapter One…

Dr Bill is a reluctant dentist who lives with his kind partner and a neurotic cat.  This is his first book.  There may be another.  This depends on whether Dr Bill’s patients are gracious sweethearts who give him nothing to write about, or cantankerous bastards who provide the fodder for written revenge!

 








You Know The Drill

Written By Dr. Bill 

Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews


First, I want to thank Dr. Bill and Rachel’s Random Resources for providing me with this book so I can bring you with this review.


WOW!! Dr. Bill brings you a very in-depth up close and personal look into the world of Dentistry in You Know The Drill. I am a huge fan of Medical Memoirs and Medical Dramas on TV so I thought I would give this book a try. Let me blunt I was not sure what to expect as I never read a book on Dentistry nor ever fathomed I would-but I gave it a shot. Well let me tell you Dr. Bill had me laughing by booty off with some of his wild patient stories he had. One was crazier than the next!! Needless to say this was a fun, fast paced, and even educational read.


Dr. Bill had me cracking up laughing as he shared the story of how he decided to become a Dentist. Because his Mom said you never see a poor dentist lmao!! His neighbor was one and drove a Porsche! 


Dr. Bill led his readers through the ups and downs of Dental School. What I found very interesting is they can diagnose anything in the mouth way before the pcp can.
