SI SE PUEDE @ USC

So Pres Obama came to speak at USC for a rally. I really didn't want to go deal with the crowd, but someone forced me to. We walked around the whole dental school looking for the end of the line. Then when we found out we didn't need a ticket to get in we walked up to the font and merged in at the front of the line. This Pic was taken By Dr Schacter, one of our instructors, who managed to get pretty close.

ORTHO RESIDENTS TAKE OVER AYUDA


(L-R) George, Dr Done, John, Scott

AYUDA is a free clinic for kids in LA and Orange County, along with a yearly international trip to places such as Belize, Costa Rica, Mexico City, Honduras, El Salvador, and Panama.

You might ask, what do Ortho residents have any business going to a children's dental clinic? The 3 of us have been involved in Ayuda for many years now. We had to take the brunt of Dr Done's jokes saying how orthodontist don't have hand skills. It brought back a lot of memories.

I Actually found a few patients that needed Ortho referrals to USC. It's always fun seeing old friends and helping the kids out.
