Tufts hosts ‘International Dentist Bootcamp’ Gayathri Shenoy graduated from dental school in India. But when she moved to the United States,her professional accreditation did not travel with her.
I needed to move back to dental school and repeat two years of clinical training,” said Shenoy, or DI17,DG20, during a Tufts University School of Dental Medicine webinar. “I was not prepared for the process at all, or I was starting from scratch.” Shenoy went on to get her second dental degree from Tufts,and continued through a postgraduate residency; she now practices periodontics in suburban Philadelphia.
