ObstetricsBio
“Family and obstetrics are major themes in my life. My husband and I are both obstetricians and we have three young children, two daughters and a son.Empowering patients with information about their healthcare is one of my main goals as a physician. I love to use handouts, charts and diagrams to help patients understand the biological process. A good physician takes time to really listen to her patients and I believe that it is extremely important to develop a relationship with each patient that fosters communication and trust.”“I am married to a physician and we have 3 young adult children. We attend Church of the Highlands and I am active in several small groups. I am an avid reader and I love to exercise, travel, and cook.”

If you're sitting there reading a bunch of patient reviews, trying to find a right doctor for you, scared about the news that you need a surgery, know that you are not alone. I used all of the tools at my discretion and asked all my friends to find the right gynecologist for me. Thankfully, I found Dr. Rupa Goolsby! She is a rare gem of a physician. Run (don't walk) to go see her! Due to her exemplary level of expertise, she can offer what others can't. Currently, I am recovering from my surgery faster than expected. No complications at all, average blood loss, no post-surgery bleeding, no infections and I attribute that solely to Dr. Rupa Goolsby’s high level skill and care. Besides being an incredibly competent doctor and expert in her field, Dr. R. Goolsby is an extremely genuine and warm person. Thank you, Dr. R. Goolsby!!

The most amazing woman/Dr. I have ever had. She treated me like I was her only patient and helped ease my fears of a high risk pregnancy. I delivered a beautiful daughter on my due date with no complications. I love Dr. Goolsby.
