Giving Smiles, Creating Hope
You
HAVE to read this story! (But get a
tissue first, because you just might cry!)
A
few weeks ago, in mid-December, one of our wheelchair-bound patients came in to
make a payment on his long-overdue bill.
While he was about to pay, another patient of ours was waiting for her
sons to finish their dental appointments.
From the conversation between him and the receptionist, it was evident
that he had had a few rough months between his car breaking down and other
things that came up. She stepped up and paid his entire $151
bill! They didn’t know each
other, and he first refused her help, but she simply said “Merry Christmas,
I’ve got this.”
He
shared this with us on our Facebook page later that day: “First time I almost cried at the dentist
....in a long time...and you know me..."the mayor of jibber jabber"
first time I was speechless... your office is not only staffed and run by the nicest / understanding people
in Gods wonderful world... you also have the kindest clients
ever...ever...ever... if you can find it in your heart to put up with me..you
have a loyal client for life.”
Needless
to say, all of us became a bit teary-eyed when we were told about this
wonderfully generous event that took place right in our office.
2013 Giving
Smiles, Creating Hope
This
also gives us a great way to introduce to you our 2013 Giving Smiles, Creating Hope mission. Starting in January, we are going to
select a deserving patient to provide with free dental work! The goal will be to get one patient back to a
healthy condition and then select another so we always have one ongoing.
BUT - In order
to do this, WE NEED YOUR HELP!
We
are asking you to nominate someone in need of dental care who simply cannot
afford it for one reason or another and really deserves a break. This person could just need a cleaning, a
filling, or a whole new smile! We ask
you to share their story either by email, Facebook, or written letter. The best story will be selected and that
patient will receive dental care by our office.
Feel
free to share this opportunity with your friends, neighbors, coworkers,
etc. All nominations will be accepted! You do not need to be a current patient to
send in a nomination, or be a patient to be nominated!
The
first round of nominations is due
January 31, so send in your nomination immediately!
Please
call us with any questions! 616-669-6600
