"I believe I could improve my written and verbal communication skills as I tend to be longer-winded than I would like to be at times. As a dentist, I know that clear and concise written communication is important. I know verbal communication with patients needs to be educational, productive, and clear with little fluff. I'm currently researching development courses in communication for medical professionals."
