Need To See A Man With A Little Pull
Nov 11th, 2005 by Don Ray
Why is it that some tasks are so easy to put off? I keep important dates in my Outlook and Palm Pilot and I see that back in September it was time to go in for my normal teeth cleaning. I think I have an excuse for this one. I had been going to Jeffery Joyner in Boquete. However, now that I am in David, I just can’t make myself want to drive to Boquete just to have my teeth cleaned. Now I think Jeffery is a good dentist. If I were in Boquete, I would still go to him. He uses ultrasonic equipment to clean the teeth as opposed to the scraping tools that I hate, but he is also a little pricy by Panama standards. If I remember correctly, he charged $45 to clean my teeth. And I also now wonder if a little use of the tools I don’t like is also required.
I have been making inquiries into good dentists in David. I figure I will save at least $6.00 by not driving to Boquete (maybe more depending on the current cost of gasoline). I have had three names come up and had multiple give thumbs up on one, another has favorable comments, and a third received mixed reviews. If I can force myself to exercise my digits, I will see if I can make an appointment with the one that has the best reviews.
I am not sure this is a Friday task. Why ruin my weekend. I will put it back on my schedule to call for an appointment on Monday.

What is the guy’s name that you used.
If you mean the dentist in David, I went to Octavio Barraza.
