Maura Stefko, MD

What is your patient care philosophy?

I strive to provide whole-person care, aiming to incorporate a person's physical, mental, and social health when making medical decisions. As a provider, I believe that truly listening to my patients is often the best thing I can do during a visit. It is also important to include my patients in the medical decision-making process; they know their minds and bodies best and should be equal partners in their care.

What is the most rewarding part of being a provider?

The most rewarding part of primary care is building long-term relationships with patients; I enjoy watching them progress in their healthcare journey and being there for them in times of need. I also love when patients bring their family members in to meet me.
