Christine
Registered Dental Assistant
The smile on a patient’s face, when they get their braces off and see how much their appearance has changed, is so rewarding! Everyone here, including me, smiles and laughs with them. It’s amazing to work in an environment where everything we do is focused on improving people’s lives for the long-term. I provide chairside assistance during orthodontic procedures, order supplies, and maintain equipment, as well as do anything else that needs doing.
During the day, I help create healthy smiles. In the evenings, I help create healthy bodies by teaching group fitness classes. My goal is to keep people happy and healthy.
Nathalie
Registered Dental Assistant and X-Ray Technician
I’m always thrilled to see a patient’s new smile at the end of treatment. Even though it happens every day here, I’m still laughing and grinning with that person, because I know they’re going to have a healthier, happier life with their straight teeth and incredible smile. In addition to taking notes during consultations and for our records, I also take digital X-rays and provide chairside assistance during orthodontic procedures.
My wonderful husband and I have been married for six years and share a Boxer dog. We love to try to keep each other motivated to stay fit, and enjoy hiking, watching movies, dinners with friends, dancing, and spending time with our families.
Rosemary
Registered Dental Assistant
Our patients are what I love most about my workdays, by far. Their excitement about starting the treatment process is wonderful, and I love to get to know them as they move through orthodontia, and see the end result of that amazing and beautiful new smile. I provide chairside assistance to our doctors, and I also make all clear retainers, nightguards, and sport mouthguards.
Outside of work, I choose to spend my time with my three incredible children.
Adriana
Chairside Registered Dental Assistant
It’s so much fun to get to know each patient and their family throughout the treatment process. I love watching how a person’s life changes and their self-confidence grows, as they begin to see the changes in their smile, and to know I’m part of making those positive changes happen. I deliver chairside assistance to both of our doctors as they care for patients, see patients for care calls, and work in our back office.
Something that everyone comments on about me: I’m always happy!
Leslie
Front and Back Office Assistant
Here, we value the relationships we have with our patients and their family members, and we’re attentive to the smallest details of their treatment experience. It’s essential that each person knows we’re honored to be their orthodontic provider and we’ll do everything we can to make the process fun and enjoyable. I work in our front and back offices as needed, and handle filing and chart maintenance, seat patients, sterilize tools, and assist where needed.
I’m the extremely proud mother of an amazing daughter, a UCLA graduate, with a beautiful smile (courtesy of Dr. Hambleton!). In addition to my involvement with the Huntington Memorial Hospital, the cancer support community, and Mayfield Senior School, I’m an avid reader with a passion for writing and interior and garden design.
Lauren
X-ray Technician
I am our X-ray technician and enjoy meeting new people! I find the dental field rewarding and fun—I am looking forward to meeting you.
When not in the office, I enjoy talking to people and being active!
Kristin
Billing and Insurance Coordinator
I joined Hambleton & MacFarlane in 2019, bringing with me ten years of experience in the dental field. My goal is to make the financial aspect of our patients’ treatment as hassle free as possible. I really enjoy getting to know our patients, seeing their smiles, and creating the relationships with all of them.
I'm a wife and a mother of two amazing kids. When I'm not at the office, I'm either enjoying a game on the soccer field or football field. One of my favorite hobbies is to create handmade gifts!
