I gota loan from a close relative then I opened up a fish business that collapsed after 3 months this happened because we didnt have a regular supplier of fish considering that is harvested about 400 km away.
we also didnt have a storage place how ever the demand is still high especially at the end of the month when nearly everyone has money.
I changed to what I studied,i wanted something that I understand well so I opened up a clinic.
i went back home to harvest my sugarcane plantation got some money to buy a functional unit
i managed to buy a second hand dental chair from an italian dentist who was going back to his home in italy.
it has worked for me,it gives me a good service
after getting some money from my sugarcane plant,a soft loan from my close relative and some funds from a swedish doctor i once worked with i was set to open up a dental clinic since i studied Dentistry and had alot of experience.it took me about 2 months to establish a strategic place with flow of client i finally managed to secure a place west of Nairobi,it is sorrrounded by low income earners who nee proper comprehensive dental services.
i have worked here for one year now future prospect is promising and am planning to open up a branch in the interior where these services are not provided.
our range of services include teeth extraction cleaning teeth replacement,teeth cleaning and emergency dental services.
i use part of the income to educate my children clear a few bills.and save the rest
Thank you very much Zidisha for making allowing me to borrow some cash again.
I would like to purchase an oil free silent compressor that goes for about 25000 if youre talented in bargaining.
in dentistry having a functional silent compressor is a plus in your practice you will be able to communicate with your patients with ease.certain procedures like filling cleaning and complex extractions will be much easier if your compressor is in good shape.
am currently using an old noisy compressor which is not that effective so i would like to upgrade to a silent compressor which i can use in the same room where my unit is.
i also would like to purchase and stock latex examination gloves because when schools reopen I want to start a school based dental care programme..ill visit various schools teach them on prevention of dental caries and gum diseases.ill show hem various brushing techniques etc.
i will then conduct oral examination and advice them accordingly this is one way of promoting dental health.i will therefore need latex gloves to perform this exercise.
i hope and believe that Zidisha will help me in this worthy course.thank you
