Sherry Stringfield

It's TV’s top rated prescription for heart pounding tension and tear jerking drama. Now, as "E.R." enters its eighth season, a familiar face is returning for a second dose of the Emmy-winning drama.!

Sherry Stringfield is making rounds again, reprising her role as Dr. Susan Lewis. She says, “I wanted to be back, there weren't any issues."
But "E.R." wasn't always good medicine for Sherry. Despite the awards and accolades, Stringfield shocked "E.R." fans by bowing out of the hit series in the third season. The reason: she wanted a life.
Sherry says, “Just because you're on a number one show, doesn't mean your life stops."
What did she get by leaving the show? She says, “I got a life. I mean, I married, I have a baby. Wow."
And Sherry says being a mom actually inspired her "E.R." comeback. She says, “This is true. I was so moved by the birth experience, and kept telling my husband, ‘I wish I’d been an obstetrician, I missed my calling.’ And I was sitting there nursing, and I was like, ‘You know, I’d love to play a doctor.”
A few phone calls later and Sherry was sporting a lab coat and stethoscope again.
