About Maria Tejada

My philosophy of care is to provide holistic, patient-centered care that emphasizes health promotion, disease prevention, and the management of chronic illnesses. I believe in building strong therapeutic relationships focused on shared decision-making to empower patients to actively participate in their healthcare decisions and treatment plans. In collaboration with other healthcare professionals, I strive to create a supportive and therapeutic environment that promotes trust, dignity, and respect for my patients. I hold a Master's in Nursing from Monmouth University, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to deliver comprehensive and compassionate care.
