About me.

Dr. Bergenfeld is passionate about serving her patients with special healthcare needs. She has niche work experience in practicing on a mobile dental van and in the operating room. Dr. Bergenfeld loves musical theatre, pole & tap dancing, and concocting culinary experiments in the kitchen. She is avid about visiting aquariums near and far with her favorite being her very own freshwater tank. When Dr. Bergenfeld is not repotting a plant or in the office, she is most likely making memories with her husband, fellow dentist colleague, and talented musician, Alex.
