Stuart Louis Cramer, DO

Stuart Cramer, DO, joined Prisma Health in 2017 as the medical director of the Children's Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders. Originally from Florida, he received his medical degree at Nova Southeastern University College of Osteopathic Medicine and completed his pediatric hematology/oncology fellowship at the University of Alabama Children’s Hospital in Birmingham, where he was the director of developmental therapeutics.

As part of his honors thesis while in college, Dr. Cramer pursued three years of scientific research, which provoked his appreciation of merging basic science with clinical medicine. His fellowship training solidified his interest in cancer cell biology, and afforded him the opportunity to expand his research experience focusing on novel therapeutics. With his research background, he has developed a broad knowledge of drug resistance within pediatric solid tumors and the role of novel therapeutics in the treatment of pediatric solid tumors. Cramer’s current focus is on developing a therapeutics program based in Columbia, enabling pediatric patients access to novel therapies developed both nationally and locally.
