"My care philosophy is to treat every person with the same dedication and commitment as I would my own family and friends. I chose a career in health care because of my desire to help others and make a positive impact on people’s lives," said Mariana. "I have a special interest in pain management and orthopedics with a focus on caring for patients 18 years and older. I provide chronic pain management services and offer in-office procedures such as knee and shoulder injections as well as trigger point injections. "I chose to specialize in pain management because of its complexity and the significant impact chronic pain can have on patients’ daily lives. Pain can be debilitating and my goal is to help patients by offering treatment options that may improve their quality of life and potentially prevent the progression of pain." In addition to English, Mariana is fluent in Spanish.
