Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I would highly recommend Dr. Maria Antonelli to my family, friends, or anyone. Dr. Antonelli is my favorite specialist. She is professional, compassionate, and an expert on Rheumatology. She explains my health situation well without being condescending. I have had multiple specialists in the past. She will be the doctor I will try and keep as long as I can. I have met with her for multiple years now. She is a true collaborator on my health journey. She cares about every dimension of my health as it relates to my biological wellness. She knows when to refer me to other competent professionals to address my various other health and wellness needs. She is also willing to go out of her way to work with those other professionals as a part of my individualized healthcare team. I have nothing but good things to say about this doctor. I feel like Dr. Antonelli truly cares about me. I am so grateful to her.

Dr Antonelli and office staff are excellent BUT watch your bill. I saw her at the Metro Health Brecksville facility and had a simple cortisone injection for bursitis and in addition to her office bill also received HOSPITAL bill for over $800 in addition to over $300 office charges for a simple injection totaling over $1100 - No x-ray, special room, extra staff - just Dr Antolnelli giving me a shot in the hip. They used 2 different account numbers for the same thing to double bill - one for the office and one for the hospital. When I questioned it, they stated this is the way they always do it since they are in a hospital building!!!!!! When this didn't work, I went to my ortho doctor and had a much more involved procedure and was charged less than half of what I was charged here - and this is with Anthem insurance!!

I wish she could be my primary doctor ! She is THE perfect example of what doctors should be like in the healthcare field of today. Knowledgeable, helpful, listens, responsive, professional but has a down-to-earth bedside manner. She is the best in my opinion.

I saw Dr. Antonelli for the first time and she and her nurses and office staff were very friendly and professional. I came from Akron to see her in Brunswick and I was not disappointed. I feel very glad I'm in her care.

For a few years now Dr. Antonelli has been my rheumatologist and she is so informative as to what is going on with my body before she takes any action. This is so helpful to any patient as not too many doctors have time or take time to do that. The most important thing that I have to say is she in her approach she feels the less medication the better (AWESOME). She explains and helps you get through what your body is experiencing and keeps things at a minimal. Very knowledgeable & friendly too.
