Very knowledgeable about Fitzpatrick type IV-VI skin. Excellent products but extremely pricey. She does not accept insurance outside of medicare and the office visit is ridiculously expensive. her proprietary products are very effective but also extremely expensive. I would make her my primary dermatologist if I could afford to see her regularly.

I have eczema and Dr. Burgess treated me with a non-steroid. After 17 years of several medications, it's subsided. She also educated me on the importance of not being treated with steroids because I'm in my child bearing years. Dr. Burgess is a 5 star doctor!

Dr. Burgess has been providing excellent treatment to me for a heretofore intractable skin condition, which hadn't been helped in the past by four board-certified dermatologists. Under her care, my improvement is rapid and apparent. Dr. Burgess has a wide ranging knowledge of both established and cutting-edge techniques and medications, and tailors treatment to each patient's individual problems and concerns. And she listens. Dr. Burgess was referred to me by two board-certified physicians. And her staff? Gracious, knowledgeable, caring, and patient-focused -- always.
