About Me
My passion for family medicine began during the time I spent working in an Afghan refugee camp located in Iran. That same passion lives on inside me today.
I now provide care as a board-certified family practitioner here in the United States, and I am happy to enjoy a unique bond with my patients and their families. This allows me to engage in discussions that focus not only on short-term solutions, but also on long-term health goals. I believe health is the most important factor in anyone's life and it's a privilege to help my patients achieve better health.
Preventative services including health screenings and behavioral modification are an integral part of my practice. I treat patients of all ages from a variety of cultures, and tailor treatment plans specifically to each person's unique needs while actively involving the patient in his or her own health.
I enjoy working at The Ohio State University because our goal is to provide the best possible care for all patients. Having the opportunity to work in an academic environment with easy access to different specialties, pharmacists and nurses allows me to provide my patients with the most current diagnostic methods, tests and treatments.
In my free time I enjoy relaxing with my family, reading, cooking, enjoying the outdoors and playing the santoor, an Indian musical string instrument.

Seemed rushed. Did not explain my issues or what I could have after my vacation. Did not fully explain anything or seem to really care as much as I would think
Dr. Behriooz knows her business. She checks our tests and explains to us whether we are fine or need to improve.
Excellent
My care provider is incredibly nice.
Always great seeing her. She treats me like a friend. Very caring.
My care provider is a box checker she just checks the boxes that occur in my chart and moves on. I had asked about a weight loss medication 2 months ago and was told no she would not put me on one and now at this visit she was like have you ever considered weight loss medications.
Dr. Behrooz is quick and efficient but always manages to address all my concerns and to have an identified next step for care.
Dr. Behrooz has been my General Practioner for 8 years, she has helped me immensely in many ways restoring my health with her knowledge, referrals to other doctors specializing in various areas within the OSU Wexner Medical staff. She treats you as a friend, as her patient, with care not as a number on her chart. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!
Dr. Behrooz has been my provider for almost 14 years. I can't imagine seeing anyone else for my medical needs.

The past few times I've seen Dr. Behrooz she seems pressed for time. I don't feel as comfortable discussing my questions as I would like to. I do feel my care is adequate but I'd like to feel more comfortable sharing my thoughts without being challenged so abruptly.
Very helpful
Provider was very friendly and knowledgeable about my conditions and past medical history. Provided helpful information for going forward.

My care provider, Dr. Behrooz, is awesome. She always listens and has great advice for me when I have health questions.

Dr. Behrooz was able to use the limited time for my physical to be fully engaged in my visit. She was able to ask about my health, reference our past visits, discuss two issues that she immediately made referrals for, and explain information related to my questions and health outcomes.

Never had a bad experience with my doctor
Nothing bad
Dr. Behrooz is the best doctor I have ever had, and I have had a lot of doctors. She listens and genuinely cares about your well being.
Dr. Behrooz is always friendly and professional. She reviewed my records, asked questions about my current physical and mental health, completed the yearly Medicare survey, refilled prescriptions and ordered followup bloodwork. She also recommended the new pneumonia vaccine which was administered before my appointment concluded. I thought she was quite thorough.
I travel 1 hour from my home to see my provider. She was going to refer me to a physician close to my address. I am more than happy to travel the distance to see her
My doctor is very attentive, she remembers me, offers perspective, and is importantly firm when appropriate. (I'm hesitant about medication.) I really trust her (and like her!).
She has been my provider for the last at least 7 years very knowledgeable very thorough both of my children also are patients we love Dr Behrooz!!!!!
Dr. Behrooz is an excellent physician who has really helped me get my health back in the right direction. I trust her and she trusts me. She is warm, caring and knowledgeable.
All good
She's the best!!!
Behrooz is awesome. My mom, sister, and I have been seeing her for a long time and I like that she remembers me and doesn't come across like she needs to review my notes every time I come in. The only issue is that it seems like not enough is being done to diagnose my health issues.
I'm amazed that Dr. Behrooz seems to remember me when I hadn't seen her in a year!
Listens well, asks highly insightful health questions, make you feel very safe and well cared for by their prompt professionalism.
She remembers all facts related to my health and personal experience
All good
Dr. Behrooz has been my primary Dr. For many years and I can trust her to be caring and complete in the care she gives.
I have never had a bad experience regarding Dr. Behrooz's care. If a new health problem comes up, she does not leave 'a stone unturned' to get the appropriate care; either with her or with a referral. She is kind and always ends the visit this an encouraging word.
Dr Behrooz is the best PCP I have ever had.
LOVE Dr. Behrooz. Cannot say it enough. She is SO kind and caring.
She is the best provider. She is very caring. Very smart.
Really liked her
Knowledgeable
She is very nice but not a great steward of resources. She orders tests that are not required. Example, I wish she did not order pregnancy test when prescribing birth control or require liver function tests for topical retinoid.
Dr. Behrooz always remembers me, she listens to my concerns and assesses when I'm anxious. She's fun and spirited!
Best PCP always concerned about my labs and how my health is great provider
My care provider is the best.
She was thorough and respectful but occasionally seemed to rush me/cut me off to get to the point.
Very good - excellent.
Dr. Behrooz listens, responds with knowledgeable advice & is positive about the way I am trying to eat more healthfully as well as exercising more.
Normally, I have excellent experiences with this provider. This time, I felt like there was a rush to get me out of the office. She spoke at me rather than with me, and I had to stop her from rushing out the door so I could ask her questions concerning my health.
My doctor is always respectful and kind! No issues whatsoever!
My care provider, Anoosheh Behrooz has provided services for me for many years. She is the reason I continue to utilize Ohio State family care services.
