人生歷程 PROFILE
吳佳蓁醫師，高雄醫學大學牙醫系畢業。長年待在國外的她，大學時期回台繼續唸書，並在2011年畢業取得牙醫師執照，並成為IAPD International Association of Pediatric Dentistry 國際兒童牙科醫學會會員。
畢業後選擇待在牙醫診所成為一個全方位的家庭牙醫，以順暢的雙語能力服務本地跟外國病人，也因為熱愛小朋友，約診常常被喜愛她的小朋友給塞滿。
Dr. Jenny Wu is a graduate from the Kaohsiung Medical University in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Having spent a majority of the time overseas, she came back to Taiwan for college, acquired her dental license in 2011 and became a member of the IAPD International Association of Pediatric Dentistry.
After graduation Dr. Wu decided to take the path of a general practitioner at local dental clinics, using her fluent bilingual skills to service both local Taiwanese and English speakers. Her love and patience for children has also resulted her in becoming a very popular dentist amongst kids and families.
心路歷程 WORK
工作那麼多年，發現滿口爛牙的人多到似乎是看不完，為什麼？真的去問病人，很多人會說：因為小時候有不好的經驗，或者被之前的牙醫師嚇到。的確，小時候所受過的創傷會影響人一輩子，就像小朋友在家裡和學校，父母親和老師的影響力一樣，牙醫師的角色也是如此的重要。
After having worked for several years, Dr. Wu realized that she had many patients with poor oral hygiene and extremely bad teeth. Why? It was fairly simple. When patients were asked about their teeth, a lot of their responses were the same: going to the dentist was always avoided because of a certain “tormenting” dental experience that happened during childhood. Just like how parents and teachers are important influencers at home and at school, the “dentist” role is just as important in shaping a child’s attitude and behavior towards oral health.
因為有許多外國朋友，觀察到國外的孩子，竟然是愛看牙齒的，牙醫診所對小朋友來說，不是個有恐懼的地方，而是一個充滿愛跟關懷的地方。如果能把這種氣氛帶到所有上班的地方，如果能讓孩子們安心的看牙和定期檢查，是不是過了二十年後，除了擁有一口健康的牙齒，和標準的潔牙觀念，也不會有看牙焦慮、冒冷汗、手抖這些在診療椅上屢見不鮮的現象了？
Because of Dr. Wu’s unique overseas experience, she observed that she had many friends who actually enjoyed going to the dentist, and felt that the clinic was a place of love and care. If this type of atmosphere could be replicated or created at her own work facility, imagine the difference it would make. The goal is to establish a basis of trust between children and dentist, having them come back for periodic checkups, and teach them about oral hygiene. The impact it could create for the future would be phenomenal, with lessened dental anxiety and most importantly an increased awareness for oral health.
在這些年的工作經驗中發現，跟小朋友認真相處後都能有很自然的互動，其實多花點時間、耐心跟愛心，每個小朋友都可以變成很勇敢、很聽話、不怕看牙的孩子。能經由我的工作幫助別人，是讓我很開心的。
Dr. Wu is a natural when it comes to children, and with just a little time, patience, and love, she believes that every child has the potential to overcome fear. The same applies to adults too, since there is always a “child within” that is scared of going to the dentist. Her mission is to establish trust and spread health awareness to as many people as she can.
社會服務 SOCIAL SERVICES
承襲著這樣的觀念，在沒有看診的時間，吳醫師會支援鄰近國小、國中口腔檢查的任務，因為相信現在的孩子們是我們的未來，所以有能力必定會為他們多做一些。
Dr. Wu also volunteers at elementary schools and middle schools to do oral checkups. She firmly believes that children are our future, and we should do all we can to help them.
個人理念 BELIEFS
吳醫師堅持的一個觀念：Well Roundedness，也就是整體上都要好，所謂的家庭牙科，是什麼都要會做，根管治療，拔牙，補牙等等，因為希望什麼都會做，必須不斷的學習、不斷的進步，畢業後至今，參加無數的演講跟課程來提高自己的知識跟技巧，把最基本的治療做到最好，確保醫療品質。
Dr. Wu also believes in the importance of “well roundedness”, meaning that there must be a balance in everything. As a general practitioner, her treatment includes almost everything, from root canals, fillings, to extractions, etc. To keep up with today’s fast changing influx of technology and knowledge, she attends meetings and seminars to makes sure she can offer the best quality for the most basic treatments.
生活軌跡 LIFE
一樣是Well Roundedess 的概念，除了在艾來牙醫，也有在其他院所擔任兒童牙科特約醫師。工作以外，吳醫師也是多才多藝，會唱歌、彈琴，也會表演，與各式各樣的人跨界交流，豐富的體驗履歷拓寬視野，無形中帶給病人更多特別的感受和感動。
Building on the idea of “well roundedness”, Dr. Wu not only just fixes teeth, but is also very talented, with interests and passions such as singing, guitar, and live performances. Through her charismatic personality unique life experiences, she bonds very well with people, and her passion is both felt by everyone both in and out of work.
