This is very true Steve, but... as I said I don't even have my own
practice and I need to get some experience under my belt. Remember
what Jarlath said... the NHS is the proving ground for a dentist in
Britain. If you don't sell out and do decent work under those
conditions, then you're probably going to be ok under any conditions.
And after a while, once patients get used to you, you can make your
push to private practice. At least thats the plan.
