Continued education has its perks.
 
Well, sitting here in Tampa international airport, the only thing I’m looking forward to is getting home to my wife. Otherwise, work and blustery weather in Chi-town would keep me on the beach forever. I had an amazing time with the Dawson Academy. An intense two and a half day lecture served as an outstanding foundation for taking my dentistry to the next level. Being one of the youngest of over 140 doctors, I was pleasantly reminded how ahead of the curve I am. Many doctors, seemingly at the point of retirement wished they took these courses 20 years ago. I was lucky enough to have lunch with the legendary Pete Dawson and was just blown away with how someone who’s been so involved with the field so long can still have such a passion for the field and his teaching. He is truly inspiring. This weekend was truly a major turning point in my young professional career.
 
Many thanks to the amazing folks at the Dawson Academy, Drs. Pete Dawson and John Cranham, and of course my wonderful hosts and longtime friends Matt and Brooke Baker. I look forward to coming back in November!

Most of you may not know what The Dawson Academy is.  Those in the dental field will tell you that it’s an outstanding series of courses intended to bring general practitioners to the next level of dentistry.  I am lucky enough to be involved with a group practice that encourages the participation in these courses.  Being that I’m already turning into a continuing education junkie, I’ve already registered for four of the eight courses Dawson teaches.  The first occlusion course, which is similar to the occlusion course I took in the summer, is taking place in St. Petersburg, Florida where I will meet up with an ortho friend of mine.  I will continue to take these advanced courses throughout the year when offered until I have completed the entire series.  Even then, I might be inclined to sit in on courses which have already been completed so that I have absolute confidence in the material in each course.  You can imagine my commitment to my patients moving forward; I will strive to be the best clinician possible, whether it’s advanced aesthetics or simply taking you out of pain!

Dentists have hobbies too you know. This was my last outing of the season at Lake Geneva. Could you believe 80 degrees and a sunburn in October? Fishing was tough as it usually is with beautiful weather, but it was great to get out. As everyone else knows it’s important to balance work with play.

Dentists have hobbies too you know.  This was my last outing of the season at Lake Geneva.  Could you believe 80 degrees and a sunburn in October?  Fishing was tough as it usually is with beautiful weather, but it was great to get out.  As everyone else knows it’s important to balance work with play.  Outside the field that I love, is occupied with seasonal sports and time with friends.  But ask my wife and my brother if there was one place I’d like to be, it’s on a bass boat in open water!  What’s everyone else like to do?
There’s no possible way I could relate the two other than the fact that I’m a dentist and I’m addicted to Fantasy Football.

There’s no possible way I could relate the two other than the fact that I’m a dentist and I’m addicted to Fantasy Football.  It’s funny because when I hear my wife talking to her friends about how ridiculous the idea is; she suddenly realizes she’s not the only one who watches me check player updates and stats while watching football on Sundays.  This type of proactive engagement falls under the same categories as guys playing video games, but that’s a story for another day.  I try to do most of my football matchup analysis when Tina is busy so that I’m not sarcastically reminded how I’m attempting to build a team of elite athletes purely from stats on paper.  I’ll usually rebuttal with some sort of women’s designer clothing example, shopping sprees, or many of things men are baffled by.  Let’s just call it a draw and chalk it up to guys being guys, eh?  As for the guys, it’s only week 6 and we’re entering must-win games.  Hit the waiver wire, follow your instincts, and lead them to the 2011 playoffs to solidify your bragging rights for Fantasy Football 2012 and beyond.
