One of my favorite parts of this job is the relationships I create with our patients. Usually, I am the first contact they have with the office; they depend on me to address their needs, whether it's regarding payment plan, treatment plan, insurance questions, a toothache, or just plain concern. Being in the dental field for over 25 years is very helpful and I enjoy assisting their questions with confidence.

There is nothing more gratifying then turning that apprehensive, scared-of-dentist patient into a relaxed and comfortable one. I truly love my job when I have a new patient walk into the office afraid to smile (because they dislike theirs so much) and then watching them come up to the front desk after treatment, so confident and glowing with their new beautiful new smile. I'm so proud to be a part of Northport Family Dental.

I am a graduate of SUNY Farmingdale and have been with Dr. Rubin for 26 years. I happen to be in a position I really enjoy and have had the pleasure of working with skilled, dedicated, caring doctors and fellow staff. I enjoy the relationships that Ive formed with our patients and their families over the many years we have been seeing each other. I expect to continue enjoying my job and caring for my patients for many years to come.

I have worked as a Dental Assistant for 18 years and have been with Northport Dental for six of those years. What I love about my job is watching our patients walk out of our office with a smile on their face, whether it's because they came in with fear or because they just don't like their smile. As a team, Dr. Rubin, Dr. Quinn and I engage them in conversation, helping themto put their mind at ease.

Dr. Rubin's and Dr. Quinns attention to detail results in great work. People walk out smiling, because the quality of the work makes them happy and loving their smile. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, so working with doctors who won't accept anything less than perfect is my biggest satisfaction. And when our patients are happy, I'm happy.

Northport Family Dental is the current occupant of the Captain Henry Frank Smith house, built in 1890. It had been previously owned by Richard Gildersleeve . Captain Smith married Sarah Gildersleeve in 1870. Captain Smith sailed the 'Helen A. Brown', a L.I. Sound packet as well as other boats, most owned by Jesse Carll of the Carll shipyards.

In 1906, it was purchased by Dr. Frank Quackenbush, who was the leading Dentist in Northport. He opened offices in 1898 and was married to Susan Sammis in 1904. He was President of the Northport School Board and it was through his efforts that 3 districts; Eatons Neck, Northport and East Northport were united into 1 district in 1922.

The building was converted to offices in 1978 and the Fort Salonga Travel Agency occupied the building for many years. Dr. Rubin purchased the property in 1996 and moved his existing Northport dental practice into 265 Main in 1998. An 1100 square foot first floor addition wraps around the original footprint. Although any significant interior architectural details were removed when the building was commercialized, Dr. Rubin restored and renovated with the goal of reflecting turn-of-the-century old world craftsmanship.

As you walk through the office, from front to back, you are literally walking through time. The Reception Area has been restored to reflect a homes' parlour of the time. As you enter the clinical area, you arrive back to the present day and to 21st Century Dentistry.
