Dental Shadowing - 40 Hours @Kids Community Dental Clinic

West Hills, CA, US

I get to observe the practice of real-world dentistry at the place where I grew up, making the experience much more ecstatic.Growing up at West Hills Pediatric Dentistry and Orthodontics, I had the opportunity to shadow Dr. Deuk and Dr. Pabst. Their mentorship was transformative, helping me become a more relatable and compassionate person. They taught me how to handle diverse populations with empathy and understanding, which has been invaluable in my own experiences in dental care and volunteer work.
