Recommendation letter from a Dentist - Essay Example

March 26, To Whom It May Concern, I am writing this recommendation letter on behalf of Mr. Vijay Golamari, who has worked as an observer and my dental assistant for almost two years now. Over this time period I have grown to know a great deal about Mr. Golamari. It is obvious to me that he has a dedicated work ethic and passion for learning new things. When I first met Mr. Golamari, my immediate impression of him was that he was highly intelligent individual who was determined to succeed. Coming from India to this country must have been a huge challenge for Mr.

Golamari, but from my observations of him I believe that he is a highly capable individual who covers every base to make sure that no stone is left unturned.At Smile Dental Mr. Golamari has carried out a number of particular duties and even shown some initiative where the situation has demanded it. When he first joined, Mr. Golamari spent much of his time observing and taking down notes from what he witnessed. This struck me because most young dental assistants dive straight in without looking first to witness first-hand the tasks that fall under the responsibility of a dental assistant.

As an observer, much of Mr. Golamari’s time was concerned with examining patients’ teeth, updating patients’ medical records, and clearly explaining dental procedures to unsure and anxious patients. Throughout all of this, it became clear to me that Mr. Golamari has a real concern for the welfare of his patients and does his utmost to put their minds at ease. Sitting in the chair and waiting for a procedure can be one of the most daunting experiences for a patient, so it has been reassuring to me that Mr.

Golamari has eased the tension for my patients on numerous occasions and helped to make my job immeasurably more straightforward.Not long after Mr. Golamari began his work as my observer, it became evident to me that he could handle more complex tasks. I did not want to overburden him at first, so I gradually increased the level of responsibility for Mr. Golamari. I knew that Mr. Golamari had worked previously as a dental assistant back in India, but the procedures here are a little different and so he needed some time to get uptospeed.

After I felt that he was ready, I made Mr. Golamari my dental assistant, and he has performed such duties as chair side assisting taking full mouth x-rays, coronal polishing, placing temporary fillings, fabricating and fixing temporary crowns, and overall patient education. Over the time Mr. Golamari has spent as my dental assistant he has never once complained and handled each new task I asked of him with considerable calm and confidence.I would highly recommend Mr. Golamari for admission into dental school because I believe that the experience would help to expand his technical knowledge and further hone his craft.

I know that Mr. Golamari has an immense passion for dental work and receiving the privilege to study at your institution would go some way to helping him achieve his professional goals and objectives.
