    • September 17, 2020Kirsten has always been very good with making time, listening and giving us the answers we are looking for. She is great!!!
    • September 15, 2020Kirsten is the reason I selected this practice and always gives excellent care. I believe she truly cares about my boys' physical and mental health.
    • September 15, 2020Kirsten is the reason that I originally selected the practice for my children and she is always amazing and caring to all of us.
    • September 14, 2020Kirstin is absolutely amazing!!! I can not put into words just how much she means to me, my sister Kara, and my brother Brodie. We love her and never feel awkward to talk about things on our minds. Every time we leave her office, we always talk about how awesome of a provider and person that she is. We tell everyone about her!
    • July 8, 2020Kirsten is one of the best providers we have ever seen- ANYWHERE. She is knowledgeable, and covers all bases when treating my children. I am 100% confident in her diagnoses, and have a lot of respect for her. She listens thoroughly to my concerns, and explains things in a way I can understand- however is not condescending. I think she is one of the smartest and up to date providers at the practice.
    • June 19, 2020Kirsten is amazing!!
    • May 24, 2020Dr Goolesby is a tremendous asset to the Pediatric community. She is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and cautious, yet proactive and innovative. My daughter had a debilitating migraine and Dr Goolesby addresses not only her current condition, but involved any issues with current medications and foods that could trigger future migraines. Unfortunately, the injections did not allow my daughter's migraine to break. We called Dr Goolesby and she called us back within an hour. She instructed us to go to Cone Pediatric Hospital, which was truly amazing. In light of the current conditions, Dr Goolesby made sure that Olivia was in the absolute best environment to find a cure as quickly as possible. All of the doctors in this pediatric practice are second to none. I will definitely rely on their guidance when Olivia is no longer considered a pediatric patient. Dr Goolesby has and will always have our utmost respect and gratitude for the tremendous role she has played in my daughter's exceptional health.
    • April 9, 2020I love *Kristen Goolsby, she genuinely cares for and professionally treats all of 5 of my children.
    • March 7, 2020Kirsten is absolutely fabulous. when I have to bring in my kids for sick visits, I am grateful when we get appointments with her because she is knowledgeable, thorough, and know my kids' history. I trust her judgments 100% and have the utmost confidence in her diagnoses for my boys. she's one of the reasons I stay at cornerstone PEDS
    • February 26, 2020Kirstin Goolsby is a wonderful doctor. My son has been seeing her since he was 2. She not only concerned about my son health but also how he's progressing in school. That means a lot to me.
