Faber Nathan M DMD PC

What does Kodiak do when the nearest specialist is a float-plane ride away? For routine check-ups and urgent fillings, many islanders head to Faber Nathan M DMD PC on East Rezanof Drive. The clinic sits at 413 E Rezanof Dr, Kodiak, AK 99615, tucked between the harbor and the high-school ball fields, where the scent of saltwater mixes with diesel fumes from the fishing fleet. They handle everything from cleanings and crowns to root canals and extractions, so patients can skip the mainland shuffle for most dental needs. A quick call to (907) 486-3257 secures an appointment without the wait.

Locals drop in for X-rays before the salmon season opens or schedule their kids’ braces consultations during school breaks. The staff keeps the paperwork minimal, knowing that time on the island moves differently. When the ferry schedule changes or the weather grounds flights, they adjust without fuss. For directions or last-minute questions, the map is always up-to-date: find the clinic here. Outside the window, the tide rolls in, a reminder that some things—like healthy teeth—shouldn’t wait for the next boat.
