17 years ago, this terrified 8-year-old girl walked into the surgery where I used to work. Today, at 25, she proudly showed me her engagement ring. 💍🥹❤️
From a new grad to now, she's been with me every step of the way. I've had the privilege of watching her grow up, one check-up at a time.
I've always cared for my younger patients like my own, so this felt a little like watching my own daughter get engaged.
Yet in my eyes, she's still that little 8-year-old girl. 🥹
Moments like these remind me why I love being a dentist.
Congratulations on your engagement Alison! ❤️
