Dear Dr. Smith,
My name is Rachel Kaplan and I am currently searching for a position in a pediatric private practice setting. My
clinical skills and experience working with children at Head Start programs in Bridgeport and Tisdale Elementary
School make me especially interested in the position you are offering.
I am a highly trained clinician and have always loved working with children. Additional training and experience
working with children have made my passion for helping kids have positive and educational experiences at the
dentist office.
I would like an opportunity to meet with you to discuss your personnel needs and present some of my skills and
accomplishments. A copy of my resume is attached for reviewing at your convenience. I will follow up next week in
hopes that this can be arranged.
Sincerely,
Rachel Kaplan RDH
