With a multifaceted focus encompassing maternal mortality, complications, and comorbidities such as obesity, diabetes, chronic hypertension, preeclampsia, and health inequities. Dr. Burgess brings a wealth of expertise to her field. Her academic pursuits are complemented by a personal interest in nutrition within clinical settings, reflecting her holistic approach to healthcare. 

Born in New York with Guyanese heritage, Dr. Burgess spent her formative years living in various countries including Nigeria, Guyana, and England. Educationally, her journey began with an undergraduate degree in Developmental Biology and African American Studies from The University of Rochester, followed by the completion of her medical education at New York Medical College. Her dedication to research, while significant, is surpassed only by her fervent desire to effect transformative change within the healthcare landscape.

Passionate about her profession, the doctor is board-certified in maternal-fetal medicine & obstetrics and gynecology by the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ABOG). The mission of the ABOG is to define specialty standards, certify obstetricians and gynecologists, and facilitate continuous learning to advance knowledge, practice, and professionalism in women’s health.

Maternal-fetal medicine (MFM) is a subspecialty of obstetrics and gynecology that focuses on managing the health concerns of the mother and fetus prior to, during, and shortly after pregnancy. Maternal-fetal medicine specialists are physicians who subspecialize within the field of obstetrics. For pregnant women with chronic health problems or other complications during their pregnancy, MFM specialists work to keep them as healthy as possible while their bodies carry a pregnancy. They also care for women who face unexpected problems that develop during pregnancy such as early labor, bleeding, or high blood pressure.
