What's so special about dentists?

Unfortunately, we have a huge overhead with physical facility and

You're breaking my heart. Dentists around here make a fortune. That
overhead is covered many times over.

The office manager should have been willing
to give you a tour of the office, but to get 10 or 15 minutes of a
busy dentist/business person's time today is asking a lot. I don't
think any physicians would go along with this either.

Then these folks have lost perspective and they will not get my
business. If they are too busy making money to treat me with respect,
their priorities are screwed up. It's arrogance and greed.

Since my original post, I have called 2 other referrals. Both were
very helpful and readily agreed to meet me. I will see one tomorrow.

Back in the '80s when we spent a lot of time reading magazines and
newspapers we would gladly have given you a "free" interview, but
times and expenses have evolved.

Devolved is more like it.
