Breanne, You are right about the temporary license! I forgot I even had one in Fla when I started working... ( I guess my memory is starting to fail me...). Thanks for the clarification.

I practiced for about 6 weeks on my temp license (and my temp license was good for 90-120 days. I can't remember which). I can attest that while getting my "R" was a big deal to myself and others who understood what I had to go through to get it, my patients didn't notice a major change in my ability to practice. > > Breanne K.
