Welcome to Our Practice

Dr. Robert S. Albiston received his dental degree from the University of Oklahoma College of Dentistry in 2008, graduating with Distinction. Dr. Rob graduated with a BS in Computer Science from Weber State University in 1998, and worked as a computer programmer for three years before following his heart and returning to school to become a Dentist.

 

Earning his Eagle Scout when he was young, Dr. Rob has always had a love for outdoors, camping, hiking, and mountain biking. His family has loved their move to Alamogordo for the beautiful mountains and many recreational opportunities. 

 

After meeting Dr. Westover, his team, and the good people of Alamogordo, Dr. Rob knows this is where he belongs and feels blessed to work at such a great office.  He and his wife are the proud parents of six children, one girl and five boys. He enjoys spending any free time with his wonderful family.  Go Sooners! 

 

As a Dental Hygienist my focus when a patient comes to our office is providing quality care. I enjoy making appointments a positive experience and educating patients on how to maintain good oral health.  I am devoted to creating beautiful smiles and building strong relationships with my patients.

Growing up helping people has always come natural to me. Being able to help brighten a patient’s smile and boost their confidence is one of the many reasons why I chose dental hygiene as a career. I am a 2012 graduate from NMSU-DACC with an Associate of Science Degree in Dental Hygiene. I am also licensed in giving local anesthesia.  I have been practicing dental hygiene in Alamogordo for 8 years.  I currently live in Las Cruces, NM with my husband and our three kids. I enjoy hanging out with my family, watching movies, running and gardening.

When people ask about how I chose dental hygiene I like to think dental hygiene chose me.  After watching a tv ad for a training school I felt like God himself was telling me “this is it”.  I attended Apollo College for Dental Assisting in Albuquerque, NM.  I started my dental career in my hometown of Deming, NM working as an assistant at Ben Archer Health Center. I worked alongside some amazing people who really cared for their patients.  We frequently visited local daycares to give oral hygiene instructions and pass out toothbrushes.  That is where my love for volunteering and dental hygiene began. 
I quickly knew I wanted to do more, so I started continuing my education at the local community college. I did all I could there and then made the leap to move my family to Las Cruces to attend Doña Ana Community College Hygiene program. With the support of my wonderful husband and the understanding of all three of my children I was able to successfully complete my education. In 2012 I graduated from DACC/ NMSU receiving my associates degree in Applied Science for Dental Hygiene.
I was truly fortunate to find Mountain View Dental. Dr. Westover and his team are so amazing that I jumped at the chance to join his practice. Since then I have been happily serving the community of Alamogordo, NM.  I worked at Mountain View Dental for seven years before I was asked to join the team at Sky View Dental in February 2020. I have been truly blessed to work with such a great group of people.  Outside of work I enjoy gardening, sewing, crocheting, reading, hiking, working out, volunteering and spending time with my family.
