Dr. François Morache, DMD Port-Cartier/Côte-Nord
«Starting a career in a remote area is one of the best training schools that a new dental graduate can hope for. Everything we’ve learned needs to be challenged to face the reality of daily life. Far from dental specialists, the young dentist in a remote area must learn to be versatile, intuitive, resourceful, and adapt his working method without a safety net. Contrary to the trend toward over-specialization, rural dentistry becomes interesting over the years because of its versatility. And in rural areas, there is nothing better than when a patient say “Hi” on the street or in a mall…»
Dr. Louis Besner, DMD Baie-Comeau/Côte-Nord
«The Côte-Nord, it’s nature (fishing, hunting, hebertism etc.),tranquility (because the rhythm of life is slower) therefore less stress, security (for our families and our goods), recognition and appreciation of people, plenty of customers which prevents from “selling” treatments, the challenge to achieve a wider range of care since the limited number of dental specialists, a strong regional economy with an assured future (plan Nord), higher income, pecuniary benefits for dental continuing education, satisfaction and personal and professional success assured. »
