I'm Dr.Bs patient roughly 8yrs. Im a handful. I can't not talk 1M miles/min. I aggravate nearly everyone that doesn't know about my illnesses upon meeting. Dr.B has fought to care for me not just that month, he's Show moreconcerned about me at 75 y/o. I trust him even the times of distress. They don't make Physician's like Doc Bahnassi. He is the Unicorn! Dr. B YOU'RE THE GOAT! THANK YOU KINDLY. Jennifer Gervais

About Mohamad Bahnassi, MD

Amjad Bahnassi quite literally could not have gotten out of Syria any sooner. Born and raised in the capital of Damascus, Bahnassi graduated high school at 16 and finished medical school at 22. The day after graduation, he left. "I was ready," he said. Bahnassi came to Worcester in the early 1980s for a residency program at UMass Medical Center as a psychiatrist and never left. After completing his residency, he started Behavioral Healthcare Services, a practice he still leads after more than 25 years.​

BEST mental health care provider ANYWHERE. Kind, compassionate, extremely knowledgeable with psych meds and tx. Cannot say enough about the excellent care he’s provided.

Cherie R • April 15, 2026

I have had great experience with doctor Binasi. He is downt to earth. Honest and does his job with great skill and compassion. More importantly he believes in the least amount of medication possible. My life has dramatically improved since I have been under his care. Also taking the psyc meds as prescribed is when I do my best.

John M • April 15, 2026

I have been a patient of Dr Bahnassi for quite some time. I have used both personal visits as well as virtual sessions and both are effective . We have a friendly conversation about my condition and if it has changed and needs attention. However, I have been stable mentally for quite some time except for a couple of adjustments to my meds. I am very satisfied with our sessions and overall mental health. I consider that to be a goal that has been well met.
