Marlene
Registered Dental Assistant
North county has been my hometown ever since 1984. I attended Palomar College where I earned my associate degree in Dental Assisting. I have been in the field of dentistry as an Registered Dental Assistant for over 10 years and I enjoy working in different aspects of dental assisting. In my free time I am usually with my family camping, biking and hiking. We also love eating out and trying all the diverse eateries here in San Diego.
Working with Dr. Wernick is a great opportunity and I am so excited to be a part of his Team. My primary goal is to provide the best dental care and to create long lasting relationships with all the patients.
Victoria
Front Office Manager
I was born and raised in New Mexico and spent a total of 6 years overseas in Guam and Iceland. I have lived in San Diego since July of 2014 and love everything about the area. I have over 10 years of dental assisting experience and with my Associates in Business Management, I was looking to bring my skills to a wonderful office like ours. In November of 2019, Dr. Wernick gave me the opportunity to come work with him and I truly love being a part of this dental family.
I love getting to know our patients and believe we are all one big family. It is my passion to help our patients and bring smiles to their face.
"These guys are beyond amazing. If you need a dentist, just go to them. They are so nice and they do amazing work. I've been going to them for years now and they do great work with not only the regular cleanings, but I've had some major work done and they've done outstanding work and will do it until its 100% correct and to your liking. the entire staff is some of the nicest people around and they know what they are doing."
"Looking for an awesome dentist? STOP right here! I've been going to this dental office for 10 years and I can't fully express into words how much I love this dental office! I used to avoid going to the dentist because of the anxiety I would get. However, I've never felt that way at this dental office! His entire staff are genuine, good people and treat you like family. You can tell that they love their jobs and truly care. I had severe root canal pain during a holiday weekend not too long ago. Dr. Wernick and Laura left their New Year's Eve festivities to help/meet me at the office to help alleviate the pain I was having. The fact that he would be willing to go out of his way on a holiday to help make mine less painful, meant a lot!! That speaks volumes about their character! The office is beautiful and always perfectly clean. The tvs on the wall and ceiling at every chair, are my favorite feature! I'm so thankful a friend of mine referred me ..."

"If you're looking for highly skilled, no nonsense dentist, Dr. Wernick is the one to see- impeccable attention to detail, trustworthy. This office does not try to up sell."
