To Members of The Student Doctor Network:
I was a dental assistant for 12 years right out of high school and I have maintained an interest in dental workforce issues ever since. After completing my bachelors and masters degrees, I worked in non-profits where I devoted my time to dental workforce issues. I am now working at a dental school and I am a PhD candidate in the dissertation phase with a topic focused on dental workforce shortages affecting access to care. I am interested in finding out if experience with dentistry prior to and during dental school affects how a person feels about their dental skills and abilities, and then finding out if these experiences (such as community outreach) influence practice preference. I believe the results of my study will help with dental admissions processes and with dental clinic recruitment and hiring. I am focusing on dentists who have graduated between 2006 and 2011 and I would like to have them complete a short (15 minute) survey. I will share the results of my research with those who are interested. If you graduated from dental school between 2006 and 2011, please follow this link to complete the survey: https://catalyst.uw.edu/webq/survey/mpfusco/123650
Thank you, so much, for taking the time to complete the survey, which is helping me to realize my goal of completing my PhD.
