Phillip’s real impact is somewhat hidden below the surface of a very logical way for any medical professional to give back. He allocates one day a week to provide free dental care to women who have been abused, or who through additions, etc., have very poor teeth. Phillip's service is very meaningful but what makes his story more captivating is that he brings in a rotating group of seniors from University of Tennessee Dental School to help him care for these women. In so doing they learn about complex cases but even more about his heart to care for the patient and not just their teeth. To me it’s a story about leverage and creativity.
