Hi, I’m Maria. I’ve been a physical therapist for 16 years, and what matters most to me is making sure every patient feels seen, supported, and truly understood. I don’t just look at a diagnosis—I take the time to listen to your story, understand your goals, and create a plan that fits your life.

My main areas of focus are orthopedics, especially post-operative rehab and total joint replacements, as well as chronic spine and joint pain, balance and fall prevention, and Parkinson’s care. I believe recovery is more than exercises—it’s about building confidence, regaining independence, and feeling like yourself again.

Outside of the clinic, I’m a proud dog mom of three. I grew up in the Philippines, where I earned my bachelor’s degree, and later completed my Doctor of Physical Therapy at the University of Montana. I love traveling and gardening, I’m curious about food and culture from around the world, and I’m an avid Broadway fan—stories on stage inspire me the same way stories from my patients do.
