Perhaps you have searched the web for dental positions and asked your friends for advice. No doubt you have weighed up the opportunities that are available. We recognise that it can be difficult to ascertain the reality around some information, deciphering opinion from fact. Dental On Eyre offers you an opportunity to gain a very real perspective on rural Dentistry. A snapshot of “a day in the life of a rural Dentist” is outlined below. In addition, we encourage you to call Dental On Eyre’s Practice Manager who is more than happy to discuss any aspect of Professional, Family or Lifestyle changes that may be involved with your decision to practice in the country.
The bright lights of the city are replaced by new adventures. The fast lane atmosphere will be replaced by an unexpected calm.
You may fly from Adelaide to the new Port Lincoln airport. The Practice Manager will be there to meet you and you are soon on your way to Cleve. Alternatively you may decide to enjoy the drive around the top of Spencer Gulf and down the “Seafood Trail”, or catch the ferry from Wallaroo to Cowell and on to Cleve. The next day you are at work at 8.30am discussing induction procedures over coffee. It’s all so simple. You just walked from the “residence” to the surgery in 20 seconds because it is next door! Your first patient is friendly and welcoming. As he or she settles into the dental chair you start to feel a sense of belonging, and relax even more.
At the end of the first week you have travelled to Wudinna, and met all the Team Members. Now your first weekend is upon you. Click on a link below to decide on your first weekend holiday destination. There are many activities to choose from including simply walking the local beaches.
The ocean is so blue, the beaches so long and sandy…and you are relaxing again. You look forward to the coming weeks.
