| Greetings! |
|

What
can I say? February is here and not
necessarily in this order, it's totally time for Ground Hogs, Valentines,
Presidents, and "To Leap or not to Leap?" (That is the question.)
And hopefully, we're all still committed to those resolutions we made last month and
one of 'em had better have been about being healthy in 2010.
Hope
you guys will bear with us over here at TCDC while we implement some new
systems this month; they're designed to help us provide the kind of service that will exceed your
expectations.You'll be receiving cell phone
calls, emails, and texts to follow up on the usual postcard appointment
reminders (you choose what works best for you) and you'll hear a human voice
answering calls way more often during lunch (12:30-1:30), 5:30-6:30 Monday thru
Thursday, and even Friday-Sunday. And
please don't hesitate with your feedback and that reminds me you'll also have
an opportunity to fill out patient surveys to let us know how we can best serve
you (Whew! That was a long sentence.)
This
month, we'll keep you updated on our January-February Ladies' Days special;
we'll also hit the USC Corner, introduce a new celebrity patient of the
month, deliver a hopefully amusing Arcadia Weekly column by yours truly,
dispense a cosmetic tip of the month, and (of course) pass along a few words of
wisdom while we learn "What's up with Aunt Clara?" (Whew! That was a long paragraph.)
Yours truly,
Dr. V

Celebrity Patient Corner- Magic is in the air
|
|
SaraLee Steiner is an
awesome student at renowned Poly of Pasadena, probably also leading the league
in extracurricular activities, travel, community service, and chutzpah.
And SaraLee is already used to the Magic
Castle lights and we'll
now book extra time for each magical TCDC SaraLee visit.
You can see some of SaraLee's YouTube magic performed out
and among 'em just down the street from the Magic
Castle in Hollywood.
SaraLee's parents are awesome folks who were actually
referred to TCDC by one of my USC
Dental School
classmates.
If you're lucky, maybe you'll catch a SaraLee performance
next trip into TCDC.
Oh, almost forgot, after a national tour of colleges,
SaraLee hopes to be a USC Trojan in the fall. Click here to see SaraLee's YOUTUBE performance!

Valentine Couple of the Year!

| Molar Jockey Memoirs! |
In honor of Texas losing the BCS
Championship at the Rose Bowl, I give you "You can't win 'em All" excerpt. from Molar
Jockey Memoirs.
"I'll begin by thanking all of the well-wishers out there who called in last Thursday (the day after the Rose Bowl Apocalpyse). I was really touched by your concern over how this old molar jockey was doing. It would have been way more depressing without the loving support of my Temple City Dental Care Squad who wore black all day; couldn't help but notice Singing Dental Assistant Kolleen and Dental Assistant "X" Dani keeping more of a watchful eye on me as I handled the usual assortment of sharp instruments."
Story continued on page 17 of Molar Jockey Memoirs. Come on by for your copy!

Floss
First (please)-It's great eating protein with

all away with your tooth brush!

Get with the Deprogrammer

The what? I know. Let me explain.
Here's my
Arcadia Weekly column on TMJ/headache-related stuff inspired by Fav Five patient and spin
class instructor to the stars Pearl Fu (My weekly columns are published by
Beacon Media News.)

| USC Trojan Corner/A Better LA |
|

You know, I'm
still not over Coach Pete taking off to Seattle. And I have to tell you, what with the shabby
treatment of the basketball program and the non-existent leadership from
Athletic Director Mike Garrett, my USC Trojan attitude presently stinks. In fact, I'm even dropping my football
tickets.
But...I still love A Better LA. And if anyone out there has Colgate contacts
please, let's connect. Again, we're
hoping to provide tray teeth whitening for ridiculously low fees year round and
give all of the proceeds to A
Better LA.
I sent a proposal almost two months ago and we're still waiting for a
response.

| What's Up with Aunt Clara? |
Aunt C speaks again!
You know, maybe I
should have Sicilian Aunt Clara put in call to Mike Garrett and Colgate and
make 'em an offer they can't refuse?
But for now,
let's talk about death by unsatisfied wants and I'm glad that the Snopes.com
jury is still out on this one.
Since I was a
little kid my Mom and Aunt Clara always cautioned me with, "Don't
spinatti!" In my world, "Spinatti" was
death from not tasting something you really wanted. My consistent response has always been, "No
problem."
Until I saw "Big
Night," a movie starring Stanley Tucci and Tony Shaloub as Italian restaurant
owner brothers named Primo (first) and Segundo (second.) Shares Chef Shaloub in a moment of taste bud
ecstasy, "...Lasagna Bolognese, one taste and you just have to kill yourself!"
That's nice...but I
think I'll stick with "Don't spinatti!"
Ciao!
And Buon Capo d'Anno!
