We have consulted Dr. Maria several times, and each experience has been exceptional. She always carried out very careful examinations, paid close attention to every detail. Her diagnoses were accurate, and she supported us throughout the whole recovery process. We are sincerely grateful for her professionalism, care, and dedication!
Хочу выразить огромную благодарность нашему педиатру Марие. Обратились с длительной проблемой — у ребёнка сохранялись высыпания, и мы уже почти два месяца были на антигистаминных препаратах. После консультации и грамотно подобранной схемы питания и поддержки организма мы увидели явные улучшения. Практически сразу после начала диеты удалось отменить Зиртек, и организм ребёнка стал самостоятельно регулировать состояние кожи. С каждым днём высыпаний становилось всё меньше, состояние стабилизировалось. Особенно ценно, что назначения были обоснованными и без избыточной медикаментозной нагрузки — чувствуется внимательный и индивидуальный подход к ребёнку. Очень благодарна за профессионализм, поддержку и спокойствие. Для меня это было огромное облегчение. Рекомендую от души ❤️

Спасибо Вам большое за такие добрые слова и за доверие! Мне очень важно, чтобы лечение было понятным для родителей и максимально щадящим для ребёнка. Я искренне рада, что Вы видите результат от лечения. Желаю крепкого здоровья всей вашей семье 🌿 English: Thank you very much for your kind words and for your trust! My goal is always to make treatment clear for parents and as gentle as possible for the child. I am truly happy to know your child is doing better. Wishing good health to your whole family.

Very good integrative medicine pediatrician explaining well treatment plan in details
Dr. Maria is a wonderful pediatrician! I bring my 4-year-old son to her, and she has been incredibly attentive, kind, and professional. She always prescribes only what’s truly necessary — nothing extra — and explains everything clearly and with care. I’m very happy to have found her, and now my son is under her gentle and thoughtful supervision. Highly recommend!
Dr. Maria was very attentive to my child. She performed an examination, and then, based on the results of a rapid test, they identified a viral cause for her illness. The doctor prescribed treatment, detailing the necessary steps, and wrote a prescription for medication. I would also like to commend the nurses for their careful blood work; they took a blood sample so quickly that my child didn't even have time to understand what was happening, and afterwards they gave her a small gift for her courage. Thanks to her expert care, my daughter recovered quickly. Thank you very much, I highly recommend the doctor.
