ABOUT


GET TO KNOW ME

"Taking care of adolescent and young adult patients is the passion of my career. Opening doors to the potential of young persons, supporting them in making difficult health care decisions, or providing insight and guidance around developing into healthy capable adults is the core of our work in Adolescent and Young Adult Medicine. I love my focus on reproductive and sexual health, marginalized populations, young men's health, and supporting adolescent decision-making."

FROM OUR PATIENTS

"Dr. Pasternak was awesome. He made us feel comfortable and was incredibly thorough. He knew exactly which questions to ask and spent plenty of time with us. I didn't feel rushed or like our concerns were "swept under the rug." He was so thorough that, at the end of the appointment, my daughter asked if she could hug him! (After months of getting nowhere, she finally felt heard.)" - A Grateful Family
