Maria was amazing. I am grateful that she exists and thinks outside the box. I’ve been working with others and they have been so focused on one lane that the options we are planning to try have not been a possibility for me until Show morenow. Glad to have had someone refer me to her. Mainstream medicine needs to catch up.
Maria has always been there for me when I've needed her, and that is reason enough for a Five Star review.

Maria is amazing. She is patient, informative, and always willing to keep making adjustments with medications to fine tune the efficacy of use. She is also very holistic minded and thinks outside of box for the best care possible. I am a mental health therapist, myself, and it is hard to find such a great PMHNP in the field. Any ADHD symptom-type people should definitely give her a call and set up an appointment.
I had a phone consultation with Maria and it went very well.
Maria has been a great psychiatrist!! She is very caring, easy to talk to and listens to your concerns!!
Maria is very insightful and has helped a lot. I am very happy to be working with her!
It's been awesome so far!! Dr. Pontiero has been great!!
Maria is great. She really listens and works with you to get to a solution
Allie is wonderful. She is experienced working with clients with ADHD, and has helpful tools to make positive change in people's lives! I like her ability to take a logical, organized look at things. But I know she is also good at more free form therapy for those who prefer that.
Maria is great. She listens, considers your full experience/health/well-being, and works with you to develop a plan that works for you. Highly recommend her!
Maria has really helped me live a better healthier life with her help we were able to improve my mental health and quality of life . I can actually say I feel joy in my life now and that's something I haven't felt in many years . So blessed to have Maria as my NP . She truly cares about her patients and listens .
