New website designed by a dentist, just for dentists.

'http://www.dentiststalk.com' (http://www.dentiststalk.com/) is a new
internet venue where dentists come together to share their problems and
their solutions, their failures & successes, the joys and the
heartaches.

Privately. Securely. And ONLY other dentists who know what its really
like out there.

You are not alone.

Great idea ~ who would have thought of a website
just for dentists? GREAT IDEA. But the name is not
stellar. What do you mean by the term, "DENTIST STALK?"

Yikes! Never snapped to the Dentists Stalk thing. Oh, well, too much
trouble to change now. Sad

I should keep the "T" in talk capitalized
maybe? Open to suggestions.

This web site is different guys. It's mainly for us to share, work
through, process and find solutions to the unique issues that result
from or are caused by our profession and the fact that we're dentists.
The main forum is Personal Issues: marital, financial, family,
health/stress, spritual, finding balance. Being in practice by myself
for the past 20 years leads to an overwhelming feeling of daily
isolation and "doing it alone".

Of course I have a clinical forum to discuss issues and problems there
as well. Other forums include Board/Legal Issues, Community,
Opportunities, etc.

It's not a website to find or take CE online. It's a place to discuss
CE we've taken that stunk and was too expensive and a waste of time OR,
on the other hand, sharing with our peers a great course we took that
actually benefitted our practice and didn't cost an arm and a leg (did
I say use that cliche?).

Anyway, check it out, I've invested a lot of money in it and sure more
to come, so yes there is a small monthly fee. There is a 30 day trial
membership to try it out. It's a new and fledgling forum and I
appreciate the support. I think we all need a safe place to "vent" and
speak freely and securely about things that impact our lives as dentist,
both negatively and positively.

Todd,

I can undertsand why you prefer a place just for dentists to go to
discuss issues that relate only to dentists ... especially the personal
aspects to which you refer.

One note of caution however, please keep in mind that no matter how
private you think the forum is... it still is the internet.

In any case, I sincerely wish you well with your endeavor.

Differences between Todd's forum and Farran's as I understand it:

-Farran's site is not just for dentists, Todd's is

-Farran's site is financially supported by advertisers, Todd's is
supported by the members

-Farran's site allows swearing, Todd's doesn't

-Farran's site allows advertising, Todd's doesn't

-Farran's site allows multiple usernames, Todd's allows 3.

-Farran's site has something like 60,000+ members, Todd's has ...

Am I missing anything?
