#43 Adversity and Advantage with Dominic O’Hooley

This week, Prav and Payman explore the meaning of life, the universe and everything with implant dentist Dominc O’Hooley.    In a wide ranging conversation, exploring mortality, longevity, family and more, Dominic talks candidly about turning some of life’s challenges to his advantage.   He tells how a serious cycling accident became an opportunity for introspection and self-improvement, and how autism can give him a cognitive edge.   As someone who’s studied the COVID crisis in depth, Dominic also shares his thoughts on the current state of play and how things might play out for the dental profession.   Enjoy!   “I would have liked to have been a philosopher, with hindsight. A lot of time thinking, writing, being on my own, and irritating a lot of people with my writing.” Dominic O’Hooley In This Episode 01.13 - Early life and diagnosis 15.20 - Choosing dentistry 18.47 - Dental school 20.20 - Pressure 22.23 - Dominic’s accident 33.46 - On mortality 40.45 - A difficult decision 50.16 - Longevity 01.00.02 - Clinical error 01.02.25 - Love of language 01.06.41 - Lockdown and regulation 01.19.57 - Posterity About Dominic O’Hooley Leeds-born Dominic O’Hooley is an implant dentist with over a decade of experience in placement and restoration.
