Vocational Dentist


I wanted to give a shout-out to a man who really understands vocation; my dentist. He is a devout Roman Catholic who knows it is his mission in life to live out his vocations as best he can.  He always has a picture of his wife and kids up in the office and talks about how he strives to be the best father and husband he can. He always tries to do the right thing in the right way. He works hard, does his best. He genuinely wants to help people. That is how he serves his neighbor. He is always happy and has a great bedside manner/customer service, even when people are upset.  He apologizes if anything goes wrong and takes responsibility for his staff. He does not charge to fix things that should have lasted longer. And he does all this with a cheerful attitude. That is all good businesses, but also being a good Christian. Patients notice and mention it to him and he is always ready to point to the love of Jesus as the reason. He recognizes that mission is through vocation. We should all live out our vocations as best as possible as he does.
