*PODCAST EXCLUSIVE* - 4.15.26 - An audio elaboration of this Threads/X quote, thought, or idea I just posted: “There’s so much judgment that goes on in these academic spaces- it’s unnecessarily tough. We need to do a better job at fostering collaboration rather than immature competition in schools that are preparing students for patient care.” - from Dose of Dental Podcast #220 with @j.buttons #podcast #dentalpodcast #doctor #dentist #dentistry #oralsurgery #dental #dentalschool #dentalstudent #oralsurgeon #doctorgallagher #doctorgallagherspodcast
