English Speaking Dentists
We are looking for a crown and bridge dentist who speaks English. We will probably need to stay somewhere for about 10 days to have the work done. We
are retired DoDDS teachers living in Bishop, CA. We would like to have our own car with us. Any help will be appreciated, as we have never been to
Mexico.

Dentists?
There are several in San Felipe. Have good reputations and resonable fees also.

English Speaking Dentists
The only ones I am familliar with is Algodones which is just across the Border between California and Arizona. It is a snowbird town and has dozens of
Dentists most of whom speak excellent english. Stay in Yuma , AZ or Winterhaven, CA and park right at the border and walk 1 block across to all . It
will be crowded starting in September. Parking at the Indian Parking lot is $3.00 a day. Much easier than driving across. I am sure Tecate,Tijuana and
Mexicai have english peaking Dentists also. Also Ensenada has some good ones if you want a good vacation spot.
DOD Retirees should be eligible for lodging at MCAS or YPG both very nice for $40 a day!

marit, They are Marine Corp Air Station and U.S. Army Proving ground, both have motel like quarters available to DOD personnel of all types and are
very nice. MCAS is on Ave 3 E off I-8 in Yuma and YPG is 16 miles N off Hiway 95. Resverations are required at both. MCAS phone # (928)-269-2262 Dos
Rios Inn. YPG main # (928)-328-6533/6189 Allthough YPG is father from Algadones there is a paved hiway directly to Winterhaven/Andrade , Ca which
bypasses Yuma. YPG is on the state line. Hope this helps.

nice dentist
If you feel like driving to La Paz I can recommend the dentist I use. Four years ago she fixed me with two porcelin crowns and they are still tightly
attached in my mouth. She also does regular cleanings and general dentistry. Nice clean modern office in La Paz. Her name is---Monica Donis H.

wrong guy
Sorry but I have never bent the cow guard on the front of my truck. It would take a lot more than a cow to even put a scratch on them. I have killed
a cow that I hit with cow guard, got out and pulled a few pieces of hide off the bars and then drove around it. fishin rich

Dentists-Joke
Sorry, I thought you told me that you had hit a big black bull with it and bent it. We were stopping your fuel tank leak in BOLA Feb/Mar 03 at
Daggets?

fuel tank
Mcgyver---Yes I hit the bull but he was not tougher than my bull buster. The patch we made on the fuel tank lasted long enough for me to return to
the states and have a metal patch welded over the hole. Since then no more holes. Now I carry a bar of ivory soap along with all my other patching
compounds, it's susposed to do the trick and stop the leak. cya---fishin rich
