This week I'm joined by Dr. Gianna Tommarello (@drgiannatommarello), general and cosmetic focused dentist in Chandler AZ! We dive into her journey through multiple associateships, leaving positions that weren't the right fit, navigating corporate dentistry, finding mentorship, and ultimately landing in a practice where she feels supported and challenged to grow.
We also discuss:
• Corporate dentistry vs. private practice
• Working interviews and what to look for
• How to know when it's time to leave an office
• Investing in CE early in your career
• Building confidence as a new associate
• Finding mentors who truly want you to succeed
If you're a dental student, new graduate, or associate wondering whether your current office is the right fit, this conversation is packed with practical advice and encouragement.
Stay tuned for Part 2, where Dr. Gianna shares the incredible personal story that inspired her to become a dentist, along with our conversation on student loans, life after graduation, and building the career you truly want.
