I am a HUGE fan of Dr. Burney’s I love how involved, understanding, and committed she is to her patients. I began seeing her at the abingdon location and followed her to the forest hill location because I loved her so much. I have recommended her to all of my family and friends and they all love her as much as I do. I can’t say one bad thing about her she is the BEST simply amazing!! Love my Dr. Burney ??

Dr. Burney answered all my questions and made me feel at ease with my issue. Also made a referral to a specialist to address the issue. She and her staff were terrific!

Most physicians and practices are interested in performing a "biopsy on your wallet", versus treating you or a loved one. Dr. Burney is a pleasant surprise. She is focused, actively listens, and clearly communicates with you or your loved one. She will fight for your rights, and ensure you receive the highest quality care and expertise. She's been a strong advocate for me, as well as my children, and extended family. When you need to fight for the right to heal, or take care of your health needs, it's best to have her in your corner! Amen!
