I have been going to the same dentist for decades.  Over the years, I sent many of my colleagues to him because he was both convenient to work and an excellent dentist.  At some point, he thanked me by giving me my first electric toothbrush.

My most recent checkup was four weeks ago.  And one week ago, I moved into my new apartment six floors above him.

There are a few compromises I had to make by being forced to quickly evacuate—my new place is small, it has no parking, I can hear the giggling of the students next door, etc.  BUT, if I have a dentist appointment on a rainy day,

I can get to his office by elevator.
