About Ellen Pastrano, MD
Patient care is based on a partnership towards a common goal that not only enriches the patient, but also continuously enlightens the physician. Helping others was instilled in me as a growing child and being in the medical field, I believe, is the noblest way to help. I enjoy spending my spare time with my family, dancing and singing karaoke.

Dr Pastrano is very good doctor but after I told her about my heart problem several times, I had two week heart monitor and several tests and they showed negative and normal. It would be great if there would be more research on my heart Once again this dr is wonderful and I hope my heart improves:).
