Residency: Adventist Health Glendale Family Medicine Residency

Dr. Asryan was born in Armenia and spent the early years of his life there before immigrating to Glendale, CA. He grew up in the beautiful city of Glendale, where he has now returned to practice medicine. As an undergraduate, he attended UC Santa Barbara, located right along the coast in Southern California. He then pursued a Master’s Degree in Physiology at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. It was during his time in D.C. that he realized he preferred the warmer climate of California, leading him to return for medical school in Sacramento.

Dr. Asryan chose to specialize in family medicine because he found all the subjects he encountered during his medical education fascinating. After completing his residency in Family Medicine at Adventist Health Glendale, he was thrilled to join the faculty in the summer of 2024.

Currently, Dr. Asryan practices family medicine with a passion for mental health and serving underserved communities. He focuses on all aspects of family medicine, with a particular emphasis on Mental Health Disorders and Management. To further enhance his expertise, he will complete a fellowship in this area from 2024-2025, sponsored by the University of California, Irvine. His goal is to empower his patients to make informed decisions that support both their physical and mental well-being.

In his free time, Dr. Asryan loves to travel and learn new languages. He is proficient in both Armenian and Spanish. Understanding the vital role physical health plays in overall well-being, he is a strong advocate for staying active. He enjoys lifting weights, playing sports, and hiking in the Los Angeles area with his friends and family.
