Overview
I am a radiation oncologist specializing in the treatment of cancers involving the brain, base of the skull, and spine. I discovered my passion for studying brain tumors as an undergraduate at Harvard College, where I worked in a neurobiology laboratory at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. In medical school, I realized that a career in oncology would allow me to combine this passion with my deep love for clinical care and the longitudinal relationships I build with my patients and their families. As a former patient at Boston Children’s Hospital, I bring the unique experience and perspective of knowing what it’s like to trust a doctor with my life. I am proud to be a member of the Duke Cancer Institute and the leading brain tumor center in the world, where our world-class clinical team, researchers, and technology come together to make a difference for our patients every day.
His top areas of expertise are Primary Lymphoma of the Brain, Brain Tumor, Glioblastoma, Astrocytoma, and Tissue Biopsy.
His clinical research consists of co-authoring 33 peer reviewed articles. MediFind looks at clinical research from the past 15 years.

Duke Cancer Center
I'm a radiation oncologist, and I specialize in treating brain, base of skull and spine tumors, as well as tumors that arise in the body but go to the brain or the spine, as in certain cases of lung, breast and kidney cancer and melanoma. When I meet with a patient, it’s important for me to introduce them and their family to our team of doctors, therapists, nurses and treatment planners. The patient and their family will also become members of this team – truly the most important part - so we can work together to tailor care based on their wants and needs. At Duke, we’ve developed techniques to precisely and accurately treat small, complex lesions and tumors. We can minimize the amount of radiation that goes into normal tissues and at the same time maximize the amount of radiation where it is needed. Our team is geared to delivering every treatment to each patient exactly as planned, especially in complicated and difficult situations. As a patient or a physician, I think there’s no better place to be than Duke. I love my work, feel honored that my patients place their trust in our team and me and work hard to earn that trust. Dr. Kirkpatrick is highly rated in 41 conditions, according to our data. His top areas of expertise are Brain Tumor, Meningioma, Glioma, Astrocytoma, and Gamma Knife Radiosurgery.
