With a career spanning more than two decades, founded “independently”, the end of 2023 brought an early gift for professionals, family, and friends. Inaugurated on December 2nd, the Raquel Zita Dental Clinic is a multifunctional space that brings together several areas in one place – including the Follow the Red Academy – in a new meeting point between dedication, differentiation, professionalism, proximity, and opportunities.
This project is the reflection of various experiences as a professional over the last few years.
For Raquel Zita, the aim of building this clinic is “to also start bringing people in from outside. One of the things that I think helped me a lot was to start showing my work in professional groups, in other words, sometimes our work is equivalent to us, because there’s no point in having titles X, Y, and Z and then, in practice, not showing anything different from other people,” says Raquel Zita.
One of the fundamental aspects of this transformation is the creation of a multifunctional space that combines clinical and training practice.
In this context, can we say that the Raquel Zita Dental Clinic will open doors for other younger people? The answer is yes: “For me, this issue is very important, more than just the scientific issue, of setting an example for the younger generations, especially for younger female colleagues, because there are no great examples. As I’m a woman in a field that is basically dominated by men, it was difficult for doors to open,” says the dentist.
