Dr. Kassmel shared a story about her dentist growing up, Dr. Hook, who in so many ways was one of the people who inspired her to jump into dentistry. As a child Summer was always curious and asking questions of her dentist, who might have been annoyed at points, but told him she wanted to be a dentist! His response is something she’ll always remember. “You don’t want to be a dentist Summer, you should just marry one.”
