Dr. Mark Berenshteyn
Dr. Mark Berenshteyn was born in Brooklyn, NY, and is the son of Ukrainian immigrants. Dr. Mark graduated from the Harvard School of Dental Medicine, where he earned the International College of Dentists Leadership Award and the ASDA Award of Excellence.
He then completed a general practice residency at the Northport VA Medical Center, where he had the opportunity to provide complex care to our veterans in need. Before coming to Fitchburg, Dr. Mark practiced in Keene, NH, where he continued to take continuing education courses to further his skills.
Giving back is also important to Dr. Mark. He recently completed dental mission trips in Guatemala as well as mission trips in Philadelphia and Connecticut in the last year. When he’s not caring for patients, he can be found exploring a new hike, cooking up a storm in the kitchen, or reading a good book. Dr. Mark is an excellent clinician with a heartfelt commitment to care for our community.
