title: Mike Grace talks to Dave Geddes.
abstract: David Geddes is a general practitioner in Portland in Dorset. After seven years in the Royal Army Dental Corps he has been in general practice since 1983 and in his present practice since 1986. His practice is one-third private and two-thirds exempt patients. He was one of the originators of the 'Forum for the Future of Dentistry', and played a prominent role in organising a meeting with Baroness Hooper to try and demonstrate the difficulties local practices were having with the funding of the new contract in November 1991.
