Chronicle: I have been a dentist for 8 years in the 90s, with a monthly income of 20,000 yuan, to reveal to you whether dentistry is a "profiteering" industry
Age: 33 Occupation: Dentist
Coordinates: Shanxi Monthly salary: 20,000
I was born into a family of medical workers, and my parents were both doctors. When I was a child, I lived with my grandmother and grandfather, and they were always concerned about my future. Growing up, we often discussed my future career options.
When I was in college, I chose to major in dentistry and Xi dentistry. I am very interested in dental health and hope to help more people have healthy teeth through my own efforts.
After graduating, I decided to get my dental assistant certificate. I know that this is a necessary step and only by passing this exam can you become a qualified dental assistant. So, I found a dental clinic in the city for Xi, and the salary for Xi was very low at that time, only enough for basic expenses every month. Every day before my shift, I prepare the required tools and materials in advance and observe the doctor's process. Through this practice, I have learned a lot of practical skills and knowledge.
When I get home in the evening, I will sort out the day's cases and methods. I will sort out the knowledge points in blocks according to the requirements of the exam syllabus to facilitate Xi and memorization. I believe that only through continuous learning and Xi accumulation can we better provide the best services for patients.
Although I have already passed the exam, I know that this is just the beginning. To become a true medical practitioner, one also needs to have five years of work experience. So, in addition to work, I also use my spare time to practice Xi models to keep my Xi learning.
When I was chatting with my classmates, I realized that regional differences have an important impact on the development of the medical industry. Some of my classmates mentioned that they were exposed to some new technologies and materials while working, and I had never heard of them when I worked in the city. This made me realize that if you want to be a good dentist, you need not only to have a solid foundation of knowledge, but also to constantly broaden your horizons and learn new Xi techniques.
Therefore, I decided to submit my resume to Beijing, hoping to find better development opportunities there. I believe that through my hard work and continuous Xi learning, I will be able to become an excellent dentist and bring healthy smiles to more people.
I work in a dental hospital in Beijing, which is large and well-equipped, and has a lot of patients coming in every day. As a dental assistant, my job is very diverse, including receiving patients, assisting doctors with **, cleaning teeth, and more.
After a three-month probationary period, I was able to become a regular employee. Although the basic salary is only 6,000 yuan, there is also a commission for sales tasks, so the income is not bad. The work is very busy every day, and I can only take a break at noon, and occasionally I need to work overtime until more than eight o'clock. However, I find this kind of work rhythm very fulfilling and allows me to give full play to my abilities.
I rented a three-bedroom house with a few friends, and there were some people back home. It's hard work, but I'm always happy with my friends.
In order to continuously improve my professional level, I participate in the training of the hospital every year. Through these trainings, I learned not only theoretical knowledge, but also practical skills. In addition, I will continue to study and strive for a *** test.
However, due to my busy schedule, I sometimes neglect family care. I forgot to care more about the situation at home and only shared some interesting things with my family. Sometimes, my father would remind me to pay attention to my body and even dislike me for choosing this profession. This made me realize that no matter how busy I am at work, I can't ignore the importance of family.
After five years of work, I started preparing for the medical practitioner exam. I was unlucky on the first exam and was one point short of the passing line. So, I decided to quit my job and go home and look for a new job. Luckily, I quickly found a job with a salary of 8,000 yuan per month.
In order to prepare for the medical practitioner exam, I focused on my Xi. Every evening from 8:00-11:00 is my undisturbed Xi time. I will carefully study Xi weak parts, and I will also use the weekends to study Xi. After a period of hard work, I finally passed the exam and completed the most important task.
Now, I have a new and important experience on my resume – becoming a medical practitioner. This not only makes me proud, but also adds a new dimension to my life. At the same time, I also understand the importance of family and will work harder to balance work and family.
I worked in dentistry for a while and after accumulating some savings, I decided to open my own dental practice. After discussing with our family, we decided to buy a store as a clinic location.
In the beginning, there were not many customers, but we gradually stabilized the business through reasonable fees and good reputation. I also paid off my bank loan and considered hiring a Xi doctor to improve the quality of service. After all, only by providing better service can we win the trust and reputation of our customers.
Many people may ask, why is it expensive to see teeth?In fact, there is a certain reason why dental care is expensive. Let me reveal the "profiteering" industry of dentistry. First of all, dental expertise is very demanding, and it takes a long time to learn Xi and practice to become a qualified dentist. Secondly, the cost of dental materials is also relatively high, especially some advanced equipment and materials. At the same time, the value of the method is also one thing, some dental methods have high value, such as dental implants, orthodontics, etc. The cost of dentistry** is comparatively high.
And dentistry** requires the use of high-end equipment and advanced technology, which are expensive to develop and maintain. Dental clinics also need to pay high rent, staff salaries, and other operating expenses. As a result, dental offices often charge higher fees to their patients in order to be profitable.
Of course, the dental industry is weakly regulated. Compared to other medical fields, the dental industry is relatively less regulated. Some dental clinics may have problems such as fraud and false advertising, and these problems are often difficult to be effectively supervised and restricted. This also provides an opportunity for some undesirable behaviors, which further exacerbates the profiteering phenomenon in the dental industry, so the cost of dental visits will increase accordingly.
So, how can you tell if you've been fooled?First of all, choosing a public hospital is a good choice, because public hospitals usually have more standardized** and service standards. Secondly, before accepting, be sure to understand the specific ** and ** plan of the project. If you encounter a situation that is not transparent or unreasonable, you can consult several clinics for comparison.
I recommend everyone to choose the dental profession because dentists have great employment prospects and entrepreneurial opportunities. As the importance of oral health increases, so does the demand for dentists. Moreover, the work content of dentists is relatively independent, and they can conduct in-depth research and development according to their own interests and expertise.
In the end, I wanted to convey power and touch the reader by telling the stories of ordinary people. For example, I once met an elderly man who had been missing the dentist due to financial difficulties, which led to worsening dental problems. After passing through our **, he regained his smile and regained his confidence and happiness. This story tells us that dentistry is not just about beauty and health, but also about allowing people to rediscover the joy and happiness of life.
I hope my experience and story can be inspiring and helpful to you. If you have any questions about dentistry or would like more information, please feel free to contact me. Let's focus on oral health and create a better future together!
