About Me
"Born and raised in Southern California, it is a true honor and privilege to take care of my fellow Californians. To be able to do this in one of the best cancer centers in the country has been one of the greatest opportunities in my life.”
 
Arya Amini, M.D., says his patients are “the strongest and bravest individuals I have ever met.”
 
The winner of multiple awards and author of over 100 peer-reviewed publications, Dr. Amini specializes in all forms of radiation treatment and their associated, ever-more-sophisticated devices and instruments, including image-guided radiotherapy, brachytherapy, stereotactic radiosurgery and stereotactic body radiation therapy.
 
He is also a skilled researcher who scours databases to learn more about treatment patterns nationwide, evaluate outcomes with combined modality therapy and uncover areas where disparities exist. He is the recipient of several grants and leads multiple clinical trials in lung, skin, and head and neck cancer. Dr. Amini was selected as one of the top doctors in Los Angeles in 2020 by Los Angeles Magazine.
 
Dr. Amini received his medical degree from the University of California Irvine and continued his training with an internship at UC Irvine and residency at the University of Colorado.
 
A firm believer in the collaborative, multidisciplinary model of medicine, Dr. Amini is thrilled to be working at City of Hope, surrounded by “great colleagues in surgical oncology, medical oncology, radiology, pathology and supportive care.”
Patient ratings
Star ratings and comments are only available for medical, radiation and gynecologic oncologists. Gynecologic surgical offerings are not included at this time due to a different survey tool required to evaluate these services. CTCA uses a validated Press Ganey® survey, which captures patient experience feedback for the primary oncology services of chemotherapy and radiation therapy at our comprehensive care and research centers. Following industry best practice, star ratings and comments are only published for physicians with a minimum of 30 completed patient surveys.
