Board Certified Pediatric Dentist

Hello, I am Dr. Marshall. I was born and raised in Los Angeles. An interesting fact about me is that I am an only child. I assure you that I am only a little weird. I have been a part of the Bakersfield community since 2010. I came here shortly after I finished my residency program in New York. I have been actively practicing to help create healthier and brighter smiles for the children of Kern County. 

In my spare time, I serve on the board of directors for the Kern County Dental Society and I enjoy teaching the post-doctorate pediatric residents at UCLA. I also have a heart for mission work and serve as a mentor for GMMA and other mission-minded college students. I spend the rest of my time with my lovely wife, Jennifer, and our son Max. Thank you for trusting me to care for your child. I look forward to saying hello in person and getting to know you better.

Sanjeeta K. Shergill, DDS

Board Certified Pediatric Dentist

Hello, I am Dr. Sanjeeta. I was born and raised in Fresno, CA with my two brothers and mother. My husband grew up in Bakersfield so I already feel like a part of the community. In my spare time, I enjoy hanging with family and friends, being outdoors, watching and playing sports, and planning events. I am obsessed with HGTV and home décor. Being a mother myself, I understand that it is a great privilege that you trust in me to take care of your child. I look forward to serving all the children of Kern County to the best of my ability. Thank you for getting to know me. I am so excited to meet you!
