I am a dental hygienist and have been working through DSS for nearly a year. I appreciate that I can specify my availability and preferences and that they match me up with offices that suit me. The process for accepting assignments, submitting hours and being paid is very easy and straightforward. Definitely recommend them as a dental professional looking for hours and for offices looking to fill positions in their schedule.

I have temped for Kevan over the past two years. He respects my preferences on types of practices Im comfortable working at as well as how far Im willing to drive. I appreciate that he offers details when offering a position - for example, hourly rate, distance, length of prophy, and even type of software used. He is always professional and friendly.
