At best Joel is a Troll, at worst he is a spammer. Do you want to be
associated with either. Remember, all these posts are archived by google
and some day one of your patients may do an online background check of
you. It might take a bit, but they would eventually ascertain that your
good buddy was a spammer, and then they ask themselves "how good of a
dentist can Dr Cole be?"

You have seen, don't make it sound like there is any question about the
(lack of) quality or the degree of on-topic you are.

You seldom are on topic and even less frequently have anything of
quality to post.
