Hey guys regarding possible infection in Dr.Doodle's shop. Yeah I worked there on an apprenticeship and there is a great chance of getting an infection there because of cross contamination. His contaminated area is also his area he keeps his cleaned tubes needle bars etc. He has no area that he puts his clean instruments to keep them away from contaminated ones. They are cleaned in the sink then put on the counter and from there he takes them to his reception area and packages them. This is one of the reasons I am no longer apprenticing there. I did not like his procedures, I had mentioned it to him but he said I had a point but never bothered to change it. So worried be worried.
I am now apprenticing with a very reputable artist and am much happier.

Hey C I would really appreciate it if you could email me. I have a few questions to ask you regarding Dr. Doodle sterilization procedures. I did go back to his shop and he did show me the sterilized packaged needles but he could not produce any sterilization records for his chemiclave. And if what your saying is true then I am concerned about what else I may have to be worried about.
well if this is the case then thats too bad and i must lean towards what the doc said about the unsanitairy equipment.thats just really too bad.well i hope the tattoo heals up rather well and all works out for ya best of luck and all
