    332: Why Dentistry Is Still Worth It (Dr. Will Dadouris)

    In this episode, Haley sits down with Dr. Will Dadouris, a second-year dentist working alongside his dad and uncle in their longtime private practice. They talk about the transition from dental school to the real world, finding an office where you can thrive, working with family, and why young dentists shouldn’t be afraid to make a change when a job isn’t the right fit.

The conversation dives into mentorship, building trust with your team and patients, the financial realities of dentistry, and why there is still so much opportunity in the profession. If you’ve ever wondered whether dentistry is really “worth it,” this episode is a refreshing reminder that your career can look very different once you find the right environment, people, and perspective.
