Dr. Tracey Hendler, practicing orthodontist at Forest Hill Orthodontics and Doctor-Partner at Corus Orthodontists, wrote a piece for Oral Health on the “7 Confessions of a Working Orthodontist Mom.”
People often ask me how I “do it all” and if I have any balance in my life. Being a working mom with a busy practice isn’t easy. But I’ve discovered that the key to finding work/life balance is to not do it all.
I’m a partner at Forest Hill Orthodontics – the same practice I went to as a child – and I’m also a partner in Corus Orthodontists, which has evolved as a leading North American values-based OSO in just a few years. I’ve been married to my husband Jonathan Madras, an endodontist, for 10 years, and we have two daughters – Lyla, 6, and Joelle, 4 – who keep us on our toes. I’m also an avid skier and love to travel, pandemic notwithstanding, so the schedule is hectic!
