Ep. 21 - Patient Interview - Coach Justin

Host Dr. Daniel Noorthoek sits down with Justin, a Done In One® patient and goalkeeper coach at North Carolina Wesleyan University, for a candid, feel-good story of reinvention—on and off the field. Justin shares his Florida roots (Merritt Island), college days at Radford University, a journeyman pro stint with the Orlando Lions and Boreham Wood FC, and unforgettable matches in Scotland (hello, penalty-save heroics at Dunfermline). He traces how journaling through the pressures of pro soccer led to writing—culminating in his memoir Small Time: A Life in the Football Wilderness and novel Thunder from a Clear Blue Sky—plus why he now finds zen repainting classic cars.The heart of the episode is Justin’s decision to tackle years of failing dentistry head-on: the guilt, the financial calculus, and why he chose a boutique, patient-first path over “big-box” chains or medical tourism. He credits community research (including Reddit mentor Paige Menzing) and Done In One’s transparent process—along with an efficient oral-sedation experience and the artistry of restorative assistant Nadia—for an outcome that had him talking, smiling, and swelling-free within 48 hours. Justin offers practical insights on athletic habits (sports drinks and mouth-breathing), what the first night really feels like, and why the zirconia “finish line” is worth the wait. If you’ve been putting this off, his message is simple: do it.Order Justin's book Thunder From a Clear Blue Sky here:  https://a.co/d/9ZeDqS1🎧 Listen now and go beyond the arches with us!💻 Visit the DIO website for more information: https://getdoneinone.com📩 Email questions or comments: [email protected]☎️ Speak to a Patient Care Coordinator: (561) 468-8812📲 FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA AS WE BUILD OUR COMMUNITY! Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/BeyondTheArches TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@beyond.the.arches Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/beyond_the_arches_podcast YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@BeyondTheArches X (Twitter) - https://x.com/beyondthearchesJoin our private, uncensored Facebook Group and talk with other current and future patients 24/7: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/12JXkZuHhkg/?mibextid=wwXIfrThank you for being part of the Done In One® experience!We’re excited to take you beyond the arches, one story at a time.
