And when they do it, they truly need to be seen. And I think to providing their service is a key thing and same day service. If we can't do anything on here, we'll kind of subside a problems as much as possible.

So one thing that I'm really, really into and I think is a key thing for any kind of professional in a medical or dental field, we really need to take care of emergency patients. And we do have that service in here. So I think it's a really, truly important for the patient's life because it's very rare, but people can die. Neglecting their health or swollen faces. And I've seen it and I've seen it and I, coming to my private practice on Sundays, it doesn't matter. I want them to be taken care of that situation. And we do have the services in here.
