The Most Experienced Dentists of Simi Valley
Dr. Herschel Berger
I am proud to be 2nd generation to run our Family Dental Practice — Dental Group Of Simi Valley. My father, Dr. Ivan Berger, started this practice in 1963. Now it continues with my wife, Dr Laura Jen Kin and myself. My wife and I met in Dental School at the University of the Pacific. We were married August 12th of 1989 and moved to Simi Valley in 1990. We have three beautiful Daughters: Sydney, Karli and Daryn. I remember as a child going with my father to Simi Valley when he was called in for Dental Emergencies. This is how I learned first hand the incredible feeling of caring for people. It was these incredible experiences with my father that made me realize that I also was destined for a profession in Dentistry.
Dr. Laura Jen Kin
As a General Dentist for over 25 years, I feel that the best part of being a Dentist in Simi Valley is the opportunity to know my patients and their extended families. I feel as if they are part of my family and I am able to share in their joys and challenges during the many years of knowing them. I value the relationships that I form with each and every patient and it is my desire to treat each person with dignity and respect. It is my goal to have my patients feel that it was an enjoyable and easy visit, that they received quality services in a kind and loving environment. I have been involved in the Simi Valley community in various ways over the years. Serving as a Director on the PTA for over ten years, to being a Director on the Education Foundation.
