Patient Reviews
Apr 03, 2021
I and my permanently disabled son have been with Dr. Behnam for almost 15 years. Although not a urologist or endocrinologist, she told me things which these specialist learned only about a year later (about my prostate and diabetes). She is not only very knowledgeable but supportive, caring, offers help of which I would not even think myself, gives free samples, makes sure that I remember my tests, offered a letter to help me get Covid vaccination. She keeps abreast with scientific developments. She sent me to ER when I had preferred to listen to a Stanford full professor when I was in danger of sepsis and that guy disregarded the symptoms; by which she most probably saved my life or at least prevented permanent damage. GREAT DOCTOR.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
