Any Dentist wanting to move to Alaska?

[AK Troutbum]

Hey, I might be in the market for a new dentist as well! Will you let me titrate my own Nitrous while you're doing the real work?

 

[Ralphie]

I have a great dentist that likes to hunt. He even pretends to understand my hunting stories I’m telling him while his hands are in my mouth.

 

[wildwilderness]

I would love to have a dentist thats into hunting. My knee surgeon is a big hunter, and he did a great job and got me back on the mountain, so might as well have a hunting dentist too. I may be giving you a call next time this damn crown falls off.

For sure. We Have a CEREC that can make new crowns same day. Saves you time and no temp fix and no return trip. Super important if it’s Hunting season!

Oh for sure, I know all about that. My crown came off on the 2nd day of a sheep hunt this fall. Went a month and a half without it on, I am hoping it cooperates a little better this time, it's given me nothing but problems since it was originally put on.

No dental degree....but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night. Sitting on go!

Yeah, don't think that qualifies

Man I got the wrong degree! Nothing like doing calls to the small villages and then going hunting after!

Being an itinerant dentist in AK was apparently not a bad gig back in the day.
I've enjoyed Jake's books for years.

Which is exactly why I carry a temp dental repair kit in my wilderness med bag aboard the plane. It's amazing how distracting even minor tooth problems can be.
Sorry for thread drift...

p.s. That's a loooong sheep hunt!

I made the move a few years ago and things are going well. I now have two offices- one in Anchorage, and one in Eagle River with the previous dentists retiring soon. So I am looking for another dentist to work with so I can still take the time off for all my fishing and Hunting . If you have a dental degree and want to hunt sheep every year let me know!

Ive got a set of pliars, and a bottle of crown apple, does that qualify me?

I actually am a dentist and I live in Eagle River. My friend sent me this thread. I am a pediatric dental resident at the Alaska Native hospital. I actually think one of my dental school attendings, Joe Cheever told me about you and said I should reach out. I will call your office tomorrow!

[JohnnyR]

Don't do it! You'll then want to buy his lodge 150 miles NE of Kotzebue. It's for sale.

Hmm, that may be what I want! Not sure my wife would go for it though

 

[wildwilderness]

I'll ask my friend

Sure, where does he live? Is he a hunter? You can share with him my thread on our 2020 hunt season for an example of Alaska life

2020 Hunts- Deer, Mt Goat, Bears, Sheep, Bou, Moose

So 2020 definitely didn't turn out as we thought it would but luckily we made the best of it! My family had a lot of fun in the outdoors this year so I thought I should share how it went-

Never done it before... but I can give it a try!

hahahhahaahhh... damn you that was funny

Getting a dentist to move to Alaska is going to be like pulling teeth.

Shouldn’t be hard to fill a position for an employer with an attitude towards work/life balance like this. Bump for somebody with their priorities in order!

Any chance you could postpone this offer 10 years? Have to get my son off to post secondary before relocating haha.
If circumstances were a bit different I’d be all over this. Sounds like a dream opportunity. Good luck with your search!

 

[ThrowawayPNW]

Let me know if you need a full time service technician with 10 years experience... and can take Sept-Jan off... and is Canadian.

Haha, I’ll still be here in 10 years, maybe ready to add another by that time
