This week at Dr. Okons office was actually a bit different than regularly. I was jumped from room to room, and felt a little in the way, but got a chance to talk to a woman who was being prepped for a root canal. Unlike most of the people who come through the office, she was young, and not afraid to speak whatever word came to her mind. Even though I go to school with about 500 students who curse like nobody's business, myself included, but I was not used to patients, for lack of a better word, who come in the dentist's office and curse. Even though she was pretty liberal with her mouth, I enjoyed talking to her about her impending procedure; giving her the "run-down" of what would happen, even learning some more things from Kathy, one of the dental assistants. I have a few more months of documenting to go and although I've only really connected with Janet and older Kathy, the receptionists, I do enjoy going there most of the time and can't wait until Wednesday to go again.

Cool! This is exactly what I'm looking for. It's so nice that you talked to this woman, and taking away some of the fear about her upcoming root canal by giving her information.
