“I had a wonderful experience during my check-up today! The doctor Maria Cogar was very helpful, thorough, and detailed. She explained everything to me clearly and even gave me examples to help me understand my condition better. I really appreciated how patient she was in answering my questions and making sure I understood everything. What stood out to me the most was how kind, friendly, and accommodating all the staff were. Everyone made me feel comfortable and welcomed throughout my visit. I will definitely come back for my future appointments, and I would happily share my experience and recommend this place to my friends and relatives. Thank you to the entire team for such a great experience! ??”

About Maria Cogar

Appointments are booked with a specific provider, but availability isn't guaranteed. The practice may reassign your appointment to another qualified provider and will contact you directly regarding any changes. Maria is a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner who is committed to providing thoughtful, patient-centered care to adolescent and adult patients. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Seton Hall University and her Master of Science in Nursing from Chamberlain University. A Monmouth County native, Maria always knew she wanted to pursue a career in healthcare. Growing up, she often accompanied her mother, a nurse, as she cared for family members, which inspired Maria’s lifelong passion for helping others. She began her healthcare career as a certified nursing assistant before becoming a registered nurse and gaining experience in the emergency department, interventional radiology, and infusion nursing. She later practiced as a nurse practitioner in outpatient rheumatology, caring for adults with complex chronic conditions. Maria is excited to join National Breathe Free Sinus and Allergy Centers and continue building meaningful relationships with her patients while providing education and help patients navigate a variety of ear, nose, and throat concerns. She believes in taking the time to listen, understand each patient’s unique needs, and help them feel confident in their care. Outside of the office, Maria enjoys reading, baking, taking walks along the Belmar Boardwalk, and spending time with her family.
