About Me

Ashwin Kashyap, M.D., is a medical oncologist and hematologist at City of Hope® Cancer Center Duarte. Dr. Kashyap was inspired to become a physician by his experiences with a childhood doctor who treated him with exceptional kindness. 

“His care made a profound difference for me and my family,” Dr. Kashyap recalls. “He inspired me to pursue medicine and extend that same compassion to others.” 

Patients now speak just as highly of Dr. Kashyap, praising both his clinical expertise and his warmth and empathy and genuine concern for people’s health and overall well-being. Originally from the United Kingdom, Dr. Kashyap earned his medical degree and completed his internship at University College London. He went on to a residency at Williamstown Hospital in Australia and another at the University of Rochester in New York, where he also pursued fellowships in both hematology and medical oncology. 

Dr. Kashyap is excited to return to City of Hope, where he was previously a valued member of the hematology and stem cell transplantation team. In addition to his academic and clinical roles, he has worked in the private sector on the development and evaluation of innovative cancer therapies.

Patient reviews
The patient ratings and comments on this page are obtained from an external Press Ganey® outpatient survey provided to all eligible City of Hope patients within one to two weeks of their treatment occurrence. Raw data from the answers to the survey questions about our physicians are calculated by Press Ganey into a one- to five- star rating. In the spirit of transparency, all patient comments are posted as written by the patient, whether they are positive or negative. We only exclude comments if they are deemed to be slanderous or libelous, contain profanity or vulgar language, or do not relate to the patient's experience with the doctor involved. As a result, the comments are the views and opinions of the patients surveyed and are not endorsed by, and may not necessarily reflect the opinion of, City of Hope.

"My blood test results are sent to me to review quickly after the draw and although I do review them, the doctor always explains them. Luckily my last cancer surgery & treatments were in 2017 but it's always a concern and then comforting to hear you are doing well - great staff & physician"
