This book is about a slightly fictionalized account of my life in dental school, inspired by actual events. Embellishments of strange happenings were unnecessary because human foibles ran rampant. However, all names and places have been changed so as not to embarrass the guilty, inept and downright scurvy. The stories are retold in a series of vignettes which best captured my mood at the time. These mostly bizarre and anguishing tales are set amidst a sea of often absurd and pressure-filled unrealistic expectations. But the heavy emotional carnage did have snippets of humor mixed in, which kept me relatively sane and enthusiastic. The end result was being called a Doctor! Was all the stress and aggravation worth it? The jury is still out as to whether I would have done it all over again.

Forget all the self-help books and "how to survive dental school" guides - this is the real deal. Minimal advice, just the straight (hilarious, depressing, mediocre, stupendous) facts. The stories are short adventures, each one a snapshot of what it's like to go through four years of dental training. As any student of higher "education" knows, it's not just about the coursework: it's about the odd professors, bizarre classmates, cockroach-infested apartments, eating pizza every day, and maybe mistakenly feeding a rat (instead of a squirrel) in the park. Somehow you survive, and hopefully can look back with at least a few fond memories. This book isn't just for prospective dental students, or old salts who want to reminisce - it's for anyone who enjoys a twisted sense of humor. I'm no dentist (I'm no putz, either) - but I still couldn't put the book down.

Mandatory reading for anyone contemplating a career in dentistry. Finally, a dentist with guts who tells it like it is or, at least, how it was.

I love it. Who would have thought there would be so much comedy in Dental School!
I would love to meet some of the real life people behind the characters, and how they are today!
