In reply to the discussion: Rich ass dentists [View all]MrMickeysMom
(20,453 posts)19. I think many of them have mental anguish for some reason...
Even my dentist rides that stuff on the edge at times.

It's fee for service, and so long as they have their clientele, they can get it.
I wonder why the rate of suicide for them is reported higher?
Is it because they die unless they kill something? Is it the Novocain?

Your dentist sounds like mine also. I've run across jerks, but that can be said for any profession

Ever notice the ones who give free care to people who are homeless, or veterans, or have HIV/Aids?
