Why Did You Decide to Become a Dentist?
For Dr. Hudson, the decision to become a dentist was an easy one. First of all, he always liked working with his hands, plus he enjoyed interacting with people one-on-one. On top of this, he was drawn to medicine from an early age (his mother was a nurse). He says he knew he wanted to be a dentist by the time he was in high school, and today, he couldn’t be happier with the path he has taken!
