I believe that each patient is very unique and has a different weight loss journey and a special story to tell. What works for one person may be completely different for another person. My goal is to provide a holistic, individualized weight management plan for each patient. I enjoy creating relationships with people as well as being able to support them and watch them improve over time.
English
My special interests include obesity and diabetes management. After personally being diagnosed with gestational diabetes (diabetes of pregnancy), I experienced first-hand how difficult the condition is to manage. This allowed me to better relate to my patients with diabetes and the challenges they face.
Outside of medicine, my number one personal interest is spending time with family. I grew up in a tight knit Italian family, and these individuals have still remained my best friends. I also enjoy knitting, crocheting, baking/cooking, and exercise!

Maria makes sure I understand everything & answers all my questions
Maria has always been a fantastic and caring practitioner. During both video visits and in-office appointments, she takes the time to ask about my concerns, review my current plan, and discuss the options that would be best for me. She is incredibly accommodating and consistently uses her knowledge and experience to guide her recommendations and treatment approach.I have always strongly recommended her to others seeking care, support, or weight-loss treatment. Her compassion, expertise, and dedication make her a true asset to the company.
