When the sessions end, the fun begins
Beyond the Tables.
A little laughter, a lot of personality, and two unforgettable personalities bringing the Texas Hold ’Em experience to life.
Live Comedy · Oral Fixation
Dr. Bert Walpack
Dentist by day. Comedian by night. Bert brings the humor of dentistry—needles, drills, and all—to the stage.
Meet the Comedian
Bert Walpack is a tall, gray-haired, lanky, WASPy father of three who runs a dental practice during the day but keeps his smoldering comedy career alive at night. Now living in Eugene, Oregon, he performs throughout the country with his “Oral Fixation” show. He likes to tell jokes about what it is like to hold needles and drills in people’s mouths. Bert has performed at the Hell Yes Comedy Festival, the B4Udie Comedy Festival, the Portland Maine Festival, and Don’t Tell Comedy shows.
Born and raised in rural New Jersey, Bert has lived in his second home state of Oregon since 2007. Dr. Walpack graduated from Oregon Health & Science University in 2013 and went on to take advanced training in IV sedation, dental implants, and pediatric dentistry at the University of New Mexico in 2014.
Dr. Walpack recently received his Mastership in the Academy of General Dentistry (MAGD), one of the highest distinctions in general dentistry. He is also a Diplomate of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine.
