After completing his undergraduate degree in chemistry, Dr. Peyman Kabolizadeh was accepted into the combined MD/PhD program at Medical College of Virginia. He was then recruited to the Radiation Oncology residency program at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, where he gained extensive experience in advanced techniques including Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy, Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy, and Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SBRT/SRS). Dr. Kabolizadeh then completed fellowship training in Proton Therapy at Harvard Medical School/Massachusetts General Hospital.

Dr. Peyman Kabolizadeh is joining us at the Memorial Radiation Oncology Medical Group from Oakland University William Beaumont School of Medicine. At Oakland University, he was the director of the Beaumont Proton Therapy Center, Proton Therapy fellowship program director, and also the associate director of radiation oncology residency program. Additionally, he was the chair of gastrointestinal and sarcoma tumor boards, and a member of both the Wayne County Medical Society delegate body and Wayne County Committee on Legislation and Community Affairs.
