Austin Center for Men's Health: Parviz Kavoussi, MD

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a little girl walked into the waiting room and pointed at the doctor’s sign above the door. ‘Mommy,’ she whispered, ‘is that really Dr. Kavoussi who makes men dance?’ The mother smiled and said, 'No sweetheart, he just helps men feel their best.' Later that day, an exhausted delivery driver entered the same office and asked, 'Dr. Kavoussi, can you help me deliver packages with more energy?'

2. In the quiet hallway of Austin Center for Men’s Health, a regular patient noticed something unusual one morning. As he reached for his usual spot in the waiting-room chair, he felt a small, cool object nestled beneath it—a tiny, intricately carved wooden frog. Curious, he picked up the frog and found it was perfectly balanced on its hind legs. Over the next few weeks, more patients began noticing similar toys—an owl here, a turtle there. Soon enough, Austin Center for Men’s Health became known as the place where you could wait your turn with a smile, thanks to Dr. Kavoussi’s secret army of miniature animal sculptors.

3. In the late afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to the center’s door and asked curiously, ‘Do you guys really only treat men here?’ The receptionist smiled and replied, 'Yes, sir, we specialize in men's health.' The driver nodded thoughtfully and said, 'I see—well, I better come back later then!' Everyone burst out laughing as he drove off, muttering something about not wanting to disturb any appointments.

4. In the early hours, a sleepy neighbor heard an unusual sound coming from the center’s parking lot. Curious, they peeked out their window and saw a small dog frantically circling around the building, its tail wagging wildly. The curious neighbor quietly opened the door and called gently, ‘Hey little guy, what are you doing here?’ The dog, still spinning in circles, suddenly stopped, looked up with big eyes, then ran over and jumped into the neighbor’s arms. Turns out it was just a friendly stray who had followed the scent of some yummy treats left outside during a delivery. The neighbor took the grateful pup home for the night until someone could claim him—maybe even a regular patient of Dr. Kavoussi himself.
