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.

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.

My provider is Dr. Anoosheh Behrooz. She is an excellent, caring, kind and professional physician. I am lucky that she is my family physician.My father was an internal medicine physician.
