When I got there and said I was healthy and I didn't need a mask, they told me I had to wait outside. So I left. And when they called me to say they were ready I went off and called them out for discrimination. Fuck them.
Update: I filed a complaint with their national website, received a call a little while ago about it, and got nowhere with the person on the other end of the line. At least I got another chance to bitch about how stupid it is that I was being discriminated against for being healthy.
The dentist would Lose ZERO customers if the didn't force people to wear masks in office.
Wholly and utterly false. Sorry brother, I love you but I don't get how we're so disconnected from people outside sometimes. Go examine how many people are still walking outside masked up, in the grocery store with masks on, etc. That is the population that is scared. We are here online in an echo-chamber, go outside in a liberal city like San Francisco and you'll see a world full of sheep still.
I don't require masks in my office now, and I have lost a large % of patients because they are not comfortable in a waiting room with the maskless. Not to mention that some of my referral sources have stopped sending patients (due to vaccine status).
Some things are not so cut and dry man, but keep up the good fight.
