Sorry to hear about your hubby!:(

My neighbor who is a doctor recommended that you only go to the the large Dental Clinics here in the the country.  If I see her today, I'll ask who she uses.  Musicman might be able to make a recommendation too.

Yikes.. and he can't even have a couple shots of whiskey!

We'd discussed this a few months ago so here's some dentists recommended by musicman, nonzie, et. al.

GOOD LUCK!

(If he can't get an appt., it ususally works to go and camp out at a clinic and sneak in on a cancellation).

loanna, did your hubby get to a dentist yesterday!??  Don't leave us hanging insuspense!

Ioanna

all's well..he recently had a fillingg but yesterday it needed some of the filling removed as it was putting pressure on a nerve or something like that...he's very grateful to you all..

Hi Dmanuga,

As far as I remember each private company or hospital receives a licence to hire X ppl in such and such position... If they have only a position left for a dental technician, then you will be hired as a dental technician and this will be marked on your contract and iqama.

I have known of ppl being Commercial Managers being hired as drivers!

Best of luck
