The Ritzen Memorial Clinics at Monkey Jungle started in mid-2009 with visiting Nashville pediatric dentist, Dr. David Snodgrass, pulling teeth in the rear of a Dodge pickup truck. By the end of 2009 we finished our small medical and dental clinics. Then I met Dr. Gerry, a retired orthodontist from Canada, and his wife Sandi RDA and Clinic Manager, and with their combined skills the clinics blossomed.
