When new members join us, we try to remove the anxiety by greeting them personally and setting up a spot for them. As students hit milestones, we celebrate their progress. At its heart, the studio is about helping people achieve positive change in a supportive environment.SECRET INGREDIENTEmpathyDr. Min Jung "Agnes" SeongREDWOOD FAMILY DENTAL140 Maplewood Avenue, Maplewood973.763.2221 | redwoodfamilydentalnj.comCOOKING TIME: 11 YEARS SERVES: ADULTS AND CHILDRENShowing empathy has always come naturally to me. In my practice, I have found that putting myself in someone elses shoes helps me to better understand my patients and team. By listening deeply to my patients, I can get to the root of the problem and come to a diagnosis and treatment. Paying attention to team mem-bers concerns helps me support them through their challenges and foster team-work. My empathy builds trust so that patients feel heard and my team feels valued.
