Not only is the clinic is running like a well-oiled
machine, the team seems to really be enjoying their work. The practitioners saw 35 toothaches today
(Mondays no appointments are given because so many toothaches come from over
the weekend) and I helped out and completed the first surgery of the week and screened a few
other patients for surgery. We broadcast my time here on the radio today, so we could have
a major influx of surgical cases to schedule tomorrow.

| Me and the new boss, Eddie. |
One
of nurses, Garmai, thanked her “boss” this morning. I smirked thinking she was talking about me,
but she was actually talking about Eddie, our practitioner, who has been a
great leader and arranged for many of the staff members to attend Garmai’s
uncle’s funeral this weekend. Eddie not
only seems to be a natural clinician, but a natural leader as well.
OUCH - The gentleman below was our surgical case today and has had
this swelling for almost two months.
Below it was a piece of dead bone from his jaw that had died from a
tooth infection. We were able to drain
this and get the bone out the same day so that he doesn’t have to have any
further surgery. A relief for both
of us.
