About Me

Hadi Mohammad Khanli, M.D., was inspired to dedicate his career to understanding the nervous system after watching his grandmother struggle with Alzheimer’s disease. Today at City of Hope® Cancer Center Duarte, he provides care that is centered on each patient’s needs — helping them manage both the physical and emotional challenges of illness while respecting their cultural and spiritual values. 

Dr. Khanli earned his medical degree from Tehran University of Medical Sciences and completed a four-year neurology residency at Tabriz University in Iran before moving to the United States. He began as a research fellow at UCLA, where he studied age-related neuromuscular conditions, then continued his training with an internship at New York Metropolitan Hospital, a neurology residency at George Washington Hospital and a fellowship in clinical neurophysiology at the National Institutes of Health. During this time, he also consulted on neurological complications of blood cancers and their treatments. Over the course of his career, he has published widely in respected medical journals on common neurological disorders. 

Fluent in Farsi and Turkish, Dr. Khanli enjoys traveling, skiing, swimming, playing tennis and spending time with his family.

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.

"Dr. Khanli is extremely knowledgeable and new exactly what disease I have. I have seen other doctors and providers over the past 8 years or so and none of them had a clue what I had. In fact many of them had never even heard of my disease. Dr. Khanli immediately identified it."
