About Me

Eric McCormick joined City of Hope® Cancer Center Atlanta in September 2021 as a Physician Assistant in the Urology Surgery Department, bringing with him more than 20 years of experience working in several specialties, including surgery, gastroenterology and interventional radiology.

At City of Hope Atlanta, McCormick provides comprehensive care for patients diagnosed with a range of urological cancers, including prostate cancer, bladder cancer and renal cancer. He assists in follow-up treatment and performs consultations for other urological issues, including hydronephrosis and urinary retention. In addition to overseeing patient care, McCormick also prescribes medications and performs preoperative evaluations.

“We must make connections with patients, supporting them, educating them and keeping them informed during their treatment,” he says.

McCormick earned his Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Georgia State University in Atlanta before completing his Master of Health Sciences in Physician Assistant Studies at the University of South Alabama in Mobile. Licensed by the Georgia Medical Board and certified by the National Commission on Certification of Physician Assistants, he is a member of the Georgia Association of Physician Assistants.

Outside of City of Hope, Eric enjoys attending church, reading, watching sci-fi movies with his family and going on walks with his dog.

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.
