Members don't see this ad.
 
I've know a few couples with that combo. One I know, he is doing OMFS and she is a physician.

Someday I hope to also be an MD, and my fiancee is a gen. dentist.
 
I wonder what that's like...to have one spouse in as a GP and the other as a specialist. Is there competition?
 
I'm soon to be a gen. dentist. I'm looking for a MD spouse 😀

Not much, She does what she does, I do what I do, she fires questions about OMS to me and I answer right back with questions about restorative dentistry. Oh and she most definately brings home the bigger check.

She's my sugar mama. 😎

Ask DrJeff; he's a GP and his wife is an orthodontist. I think we both know who wears the pants in THAT household... 😀 😉

Just As long as she doesn't catch him with another woman then run him over with her mercedes, stop, back up over him, and run him over again like the orthodontist chick in Florida :laugh:

Hey, hey Bill... I resemble that remark 😉 Actually I wear the pants(scrub pants actually) while she just wears skirts 😀

In my graduating class, and we'll be 8 years out this May, we have me and my wife (general dentist/orthodontist)
a General Dentist and her husband an MD (an internal medicine/"hospitalist", a prosthodontist and his MD wife (and family medicine doc) - and all 6 of us were from the same graduating DMD/MD class at UCONN. Then we also have an endodontist and her anesthesiologist husband and another orthodontist and her general surgeon(MD) husband. You could also add in an oral surgeon and his Nurse practitioner wife if you want too. All that from a dental graduating class of 39 :wow:

The scary thing is in the years both slightly ahead and behind my graduating class, these were fairly typical numbers of dual professional spouses coming out of UCONN. Or another way to look at it is, at UCONN you get very close to your classmates 😉 😀

I should be safe, since she drives an Audi, not a Mercedes 😉 Although that Quattro all wheel drive thing may come back to haunt me 😱 😉 😀
