Dr. Mariuz is an exceptional clinician. I drive all the way from [...] and currently live in Colorado, yet make sure to see him while I'm back. He provides excellent, contextualized care. Is thorough and thoughtful in his approach. He remembers me and key items about my life, which makes me feel like I'm receiving individualized care.
