If I are dealing with cancer, there is no place else I'd rather be.
Youram Nassir, MD, is a world-renowned hematologist and oncologist serving patients at Cancer Care Institute in the Mid-Wilshire district of Los Angeles, California. With 22 years in practice, Dr. Nassir applies his unrivaled understanding of cancer care to the effective treatment of brain, lung, liver, pancreas, prostate, ovarian, breast, leukemia, multiple myeloma, colon, stomach, head and neck cancer, and lymphoma. His multidisciplinary, collaborative approach and persistence have helped save countless lives over the last two decades, winning him recognition within his community and the medical field.
Many people discover their passion later in life, but Dr. Nassir has always been firmly devoted to the science of healing. From the early age of fourteen, he knew he would pursue a career in the medical field.
His formal post-secondary education began in Canada at the University of Toronto. After completing two years of undergraduate studies, he moved to the United States to finish his degree at UCLA, one of California’s top research institutions. Dr. Nassir’s time at the University of California, Los Angeles, was integral in his future success as an esteemed physician. His passion for the healing arts fueled his studies, earning him acclaim among his peers and educators.
By the time Dr. Nassir graduated magna cum laude from UCLA in 1992, he was well-traveled, steeped in the knowledge of medical research, and eager to continue pursuing his passion for healing. Upon completing his undergraduate studies at UCLA, Dr. Nassir enrolled at the prestigious Cornell University Medical College in New York, one of the country’s most renowned medical schools. Here, he received the highly respected American Foundation for Urological Disease Research Scholarship for his outstanding performance in the program.
Dr. Nassir’s academic career at Cornell University was reaching new horizons when his father was diagnosed with terminal stage 4 prostate cancer. To be near his family during his father’s final months, Dr. Nassir made the difficult decision to transfer his medical schooling to UCLA. As he supported his father through his cancer treatment, he witnessed the vital role that oncologists play in the lives of cancer patients and their families. Through this pivotal, first-hand experience, Dr. Nassir realized his calling in the field of oncology.
After receiving his Doctor of Medicine from the UCLA School of Medicine in 1996, Dr. Nassir continued his medical training as an intern and resident for the next three years at UCLA Medical Center. In 1999, he chose to attend USC Medical Center and Norris Cancer Center as a hematology and oncology fellow, where he completed his hematology/oncology fellowship under the guidance of world-class mentors in both fields.
Dr. Nassir has been in practice for more than twenty years. He currently practices at his private practice, Cancer Care Institute, and is independently affiliated with Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. His success in his field can be attributed not only to his exceptional medical training and unshaken persistence but also to a deep and personal understanding of cancer and patient care.
Dr. Nassir understands that there is no such thing as “standard cancer,” so there shouldn’t be a standard approach to treating the disease. Instead, he takes a highly individualized, collaborative approach to patient care, offering novel therapies that are uniquely suited to your needs and circumstances.
As cancer is a chronic disease, Dr. Nassir provides long-term care to help ensure the most positive possible outcomes. He has a unique understanding of the disease and stays with you and your family every step of the way, offering therapies, treatments, and dietary advice to help you make guided, well-informed decisions about your care.
Today, Dr. Nassir’s reputation is widely celebrated in his community. Ratings from his patients and their families consistently spotlight his expertise and unyielding, compassionate approach. He is known as a gifted doctor and a compassionate man who strives daily to deliver hope and save lives.
In regard to his life mission and work, Dr. Nassir notes, “My hope is to continue to improve the quality of life for cancer patients, to turn incurable cancer from a death sentence into a chronic, manageable disease where people can live much longer and have satisfying lives.” Dr. Nassir is fortunate and humbled to have the opportunity to bring hope to cancer patients through individualized care and targeted cancer therapies.

Excellent!
Dr Nassir and his team are caring kind and diligent. They really fight for your life. i had a consultation with another doctor, and I felt like there was no urgency or real care from their team. The day i walked into Dr Nassirs office, all that changed. I am on my 7th chemo out of 10, and couldnt be happier with my decision to go with this office. My labwork shows constant improvement in my health and so do my scans. the team is so friendly and patient, always willing to answer questions and quickly help. Every team member here is smart and kind, which makes a big differenxe in patient experience. i came in with stage 4 colon cancer spread to my liver. recent scans and bloodwork have shown significant shrinkage in tumors, and improvenent in my liver levels. i am full of hope and gratitude, and that kind of progress encourages me a lot. Dr. Nassir took his time with my appointment and was so thorough. His suggested treatment plan saved my life and i recommend him to everyone.
The visited is always good everyone is always polite and nice you waited a little but it worth the wait DrNassir very good what every going he will get to bottom of he will find out the problem to your situation .
