EP 49: Hotel Dentistry Has No Place in Our Dental History

#48: If Your Dentist Is A Murderer...Allegedly

What's your responsibility when your boss is about to be featured on Dateline? Kevin and I pondered the employee obligations of the Colorado dentist accused of killing his wife via poison. We aren't seeing too much of this in the traditional dental journals but we're not afraid to bring it up. Don't worry - we actually got serious about the topic though. We hear from employees who see shady behavior all the time. Another example is the just-sentenced Knoxville dentist who instructed employees to go against dental guidelines when seeing patients. There are times when you have to take a stand. As always, more info is in the links below. Thanks for listening!
