Episode Run Time: 00:43:07

 

Intro

Today, I talk to Dr. Amir Tahmasebpour who is a popular dentist on Instagram. Originally from Canada, he came to Australia to pursue dentistry. He worked as an associate dentist in Sydney for 2 years where he really developed a passion for oral surgery. He recently moved back to Toronto and is getting ready to continue his practice there.

In this interview we talk about the role of social media in dentistry; what it has meant to him and his career in terms of finding mentorship from around the world. We also talk about our common interest in oral surgery, his move back to Canada, and his future goals.

Headline Quote [26:59 - 27:18] As a person who posts these kinds of content, you're kind of subjecting yourself to a lot of judgment. You're subjecting yourself to a lot of criticism. And... But I'm willing to accept it, you know? If someone's going to criticize me and if they have a valid point, I want to hear it. I want to learn from it. And that here is how you're going to grow as a clinician. Conclusion
