Ashley Ramsey, DDS

WEBVTT 00:00:05.233 --> 00:00:07.833 I decided to become a dentist because I love science, 00:00:07.900 --> 00:00:10.267 but I also love working with children, 00:00:10.433 --> 00:00:13.700 so I feel like pediatric dentistry combines those two loves. 00:00:13.767 --> 00:00:18.533 When my patients visit my office, I want them to feel heard and cared for, 00:00:18.700 --> 00:00:21.200 and that their concerns have been addressed. 00:00:21.267 --> 00:00:23.233 My favorite part of interacting with my patients 00:00:23.300 --> 00:00:24.933 is really just getting to know them. 00:00:25.367 --> 00:00:27.067 Sometimes we have a shy patient come in, 00:00:27.133 --> 00:00:29.667 and the most rewarding thing is to see them through the years, 00:00:30.133 --> 00:00:32.800 and see them come out of their shell, and just get to know them. 00:00:32.867 --> 00:00:34.400 Probably the family that touches me the most 00:00:34.467 --> 00:00:38.667 is a family that's been with us for 10 years, over 10 years. 00:00:38.733 --> 00:00:42.200 Family of three, the mom is a manager at McDonald's, 00:00:42.267 --> 00:00:46.174 and so every time there's a special toy at McDonald's, she brings that in. 00:00:46.267 --> 00:00:49.533 She also is a big shopper at Bed Bath & Beyond, 00:00:49.600 --> 00:00:53.567 so she brings me soaps and lotions and hand sanitizer from there. 00:00:53.667 --> 00:00:56.267 And her son has even sent me roses a few times. 00:00:56.600 --> 00:00:58.600 It's just the sweetest thing ever.
