Infectious Disease Doctor - Nashville, TN

"Dr. Byrge was called in to consult on my case. I was admitted to the hospital with sepsis and cellulitis. My surgeon did not know what to do and brought her in to find out what was wrong. She discovered it was due to a MRSA infection in my surgical site. She explained everything to us and was very patient and kind. She never seemed rushed or annoyed that we had questions. Dr. Byrge continued to communicate with me via the patient portal after I was discharged. I believe she quite possibly saved my life. "

"From the feeling of above “being on top of the world” January 2020, with an extremely rare and unforeseen LATE to the game (counted on multiple hands) diagnoses mid July… in and out of the hospital, and on my literal death bed(s) more by 36 years old than most would see by 100… Dr. Kelly is one of my very few saving graces and why I’m on this Earth today. I’ll never forget going from one week of in a few weeks “you’ll be much better” to chemotherapy within the next week without warning. He was there not only cheering me on, pulling and tugging along the way, but has never let me forgot to this day, especially when I feel down and out, that’s it quite the exact opposite. If slow and steady won the race…. Then the phrase “turtle-turtle” is my motto for 2024! Dr. Sean Kelly is not only so educated and understanding, but charming enough to make you seem like you still might have a chance in the world. I owe my life to him!"
