Meet Stuart Burri, MD, SERO’s February 2022 Provider of the Month

At SERO, we are committed to fostering relationships that go beyond just providing care. It’s important for us to build connections with patients on a deeper level so our physicians can deliver exceptional personalized service. We believe the first step is getting to know our physicians outside of the office.

This month, we are excited to introduce Dr. Stuart H. Burri. Dr. Burri is one of our radiation oncologists serving the Levine Cancer Institute where he is also the Chairman of Radiation Oncology.  In 2000, Dr. Burri joined the SERO team after serving as the Chief Resident of Oncology at Emory University School of Medicine.

I have been married for the better part of three decades to the amazing Amanda Hoyle Burri. We have three children, Emma, who is graduating from law school and will be working as a Federal Judicial Clerk, Graham, who is starting his career as a software engineer for Amazon, and Audrey, who is studying English and Marketing while rowing crew at Notre Dame.

We enjoy travel as a group, but that took a bit of a detour during the pandemic. Our collective favorite trip was a safari to Kenya several years ago.

I chose radiation oncology as a specialty partly because I find it very intellectually interesting – and it involves working with a highly expert team which suits my personality. I also really appreciate that radiation treatments are highly effective and can have a very beneficial role in the care of patients.

Graduating was really my most memorable moment from medical school. I do not come from a medical family and it really felt momentous to walk across the stage. I still have a photo on my desk from that day to help remind me what a privilege it is to have the chance to practice medicine and play a role in such an important time in the life of someone else.

My first job was bagging groceries at a Kroger

My favorite movie is probably Good Will Hunting.  I recently finished reading Ride of a Lifetime by Robert Eiger.

I already “play” golf, but I dream of playing it well…
