  Dr Kelly Burgess had her staff call me after she received a report from Humana Insurance practitioner who came to my home for the yearly well visit. After she saw me she referred me for a test at Georgetown Hospital. Dr Burgess also noticed I was coughing and checked my breathing and prescribed prednisone which is helping
