About Me
Michael Zourabian, M.D., is associate clinical professor in the Department of Medicine and medical director of the Evaluation and Treatment Center (ETC). Dr. Zourabian was born and raised in Russia, where he received his medical degree from the Yerevan State Medical University in 1983, and his postdoctoral training in thoracic surgery at the Moscow Medical Academy in 1990. He was a resident and fellow in thoracic surgery in Armenia and in St. Petersburg, Russia.
 
He served as chief physician of the Evaluation Treatment Center Pulmonary/TB at Tuberculosis Hospital #7 in Moscow, and in the Department of Surgery at Pulmonary Hospital in Abovian, Armenia.
 
Dr. Zourabian then moved to the United States where he completed a residency in family medicine at Presbyterian Intercommunity Hospital in Whittier, California.  During his residency, Dr. Zourabian was a hospitalist at City of Hope and then he joined City of Hope Medical Center full time in 2012.
 
Dr. Zourabian has published several peer-reviewed papers focused on thoracic surgery.
 
He speaks fluent Russian and Armenian as well as English. He has been an outstanding, hard-working and committed physician for City of Hope for a number of years, and we are fortunate to have this well-trained and experienced member of our faculty.
 
Dr. Zourabian works in the ETC, which is staffed from noon to midnight, seven days per week by a rotating group of three City of Hope physicians.
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.
