Darien H. Behravan, DO

Dr. Behravan is the worst Doctor I have ever come across. He is unprofessional, rude, condescending and unhelpful. I would stay away, far away from his practice. My experience during the one and only time I had the displeasure of meeting him was simply shocking.

I was referred to Dr. Behravan by my primary care doctor for a consultation. I must say he is a very busy man but his staff was wonderful and accommodating. My first appointment with him was very extensive. He exceeded my expectations to say the least. He explained and answered every question I had and was very knowledgeable. He did a series of injections for me which have relieved my pain tremendously. I also have seen his assistant Ridi Patel who is very gentle and well informed. I would definitely recommend him.

This is, by far, the worst medical experience I have ever had.
I was a patient of Dr. Behraven’s for several years. He runs a pain management clinic in an office which looks like it hasn’t been decorated since the 70’s. I have had to wait for up to three hours to see someone, even though I had a scheduled appointment. Dr. Behraven seems to think it’s okay to see you initially, get you set up, and then pass you off to one of his PA’s. I wouldn’t know what he looked like if I ran into him on the street; it’s been years since I’ve actually seen him.
His PA’s are little more than prescription writers. They don’t listen to your pain level problems and won’t go talk to him to adjust your medication. I was actually dressed down for saying one swear word which wasn’t even that strong, by a woman younger than my daughter. She is no longer with the office, which is a real benefit.
His office staff is rude and incompetent. They seem unable to make any decisions without talking to someone «higher up» and can’t even keep appointments straight. When I left the office, I needed to have my records faxed to my new doctor, and they were less than helpful in getting that accomplished. The office manager basically told me that it was nice knowing me and to get lost when I transferred. The behavior of the staff — including the PA’s — is unacceptable and unprofessional.
I think that Dr. Behraven really needs to take a close look at his office and staff to see what can be done to streamline things, get some competent and polite people in there, and perhaps not worry about how much money he can make by cramming people on his schedule. It would be nice for future and current patients to go to an office which is inviting, well-​run, and actually have access to the actual doctor instead of a bunch of drones. I would NEVER recommend this office to anybody. It was a terrible experience, and I’m really glad I’m out of there.
