Biographical Information
“I have always had an interest in serving others and being involved in my community,” says Dr. Barzin. “As a physician, I have the opportunity to work with families and their loved ones to improve their well being, provide support and be an advocate for them. I approach every patient interaction with the fundamentals of my osteopathic training in mind, and look at how the mind, body, and soul impact one’s health. Outside of work, I can frequently be found running around the streets of Chapel Hill and enjoying UNC athletics. My wife and I enjoy traveling, trying new food and spending time with our two children.”
