Meet Kingston, NY

Kingston is one of those Hudson Valley towns that makes life feel more balanced. You get a real community vibe, a slower pace than the city, and plenty to do when you’re off the clock. It’s the kind of place where you can grab a great coffee, run errands without fighting traffic, and still have time left in the day.

If you like getting outside, Kingston is surrounded by easy weekend escapes. Think quick hikes, river views, and day trips that actually feel like a reset. And if you’re in a season of life where routine matters (family, school schedules, or just wanting your time back), Kingston is a great fit.

Why providers like it here:

• Hudson Valley lifestyle with a real “work-life” feel
• Strong sense of community and an easy day-to-day pace
• Tons of weekend options (outdoors, food spots, small-town events)

Meet Dr. Gene DeStefano D.D.S.

Dr. Gene DeStefano is a Cosmetic Dentist who’s been practicing in Kingston since 1992. He earned his DDS from NYU College of Dentistry and completed his residency at Northport VA–Stony Brook Hospital.

Before dentistry, Dr. DeStefano spent three years in medical research in virology at NYU Medical Center, and he holds a Biology degree from Johns Hopkins University. That curiosity still shows up in how he practices today — he’s committed to continuing education and bringing modern advancements into the office so patients receive skilled, state-of-the-art care.
