HEALTH AND WELLNESS RESOURCES
The Wellness Program is available to help those in the dental community who are struggling with their mental and physical health. Dentistry can take a toll on our mental, physical, and spiritual health. We owe it to ourselves, our loved ones, and our patients to be in healthy condition. Don’t wait to address problems until you have no other option. Be proactive about your health because you are worth it! Feel free to email Dr. Jack Huebner for additional information.
