From the cockpit to the dental chair
Dr. Rodriguez is a licensed commercial pilot and flight instructor.
Prior to attending dental school Dr. Rodriguez flew as a Commercial Pilot
and Flight Instructor.
One of the greatest influences in his life and proudest achievements is to
have been a founding member and pilot for “Hermanos al Rescate”
(Brothers to the Rescue). Through the search and rescue efforts of this
organization he was able to save thousands of men, women and children
from drowning in the Straights of Florida.
“My time with Hermanos al Rescate taught me a great deal about the human condition. I have seen the face of desperation, of pain and mostly of courage. I have seen the great risks that people are willing to take for a chance at freedom. I am moved and grateful for every courageous man and woman who has donned the uniform in service to our great country. I cherish and protect my freedom to honor those who fought so hard to gain it.
