    Dr. Go makes my children enjoy going to the doctors. She connects with my kids in ways no other providers have in the past. I appreciate how easy it is to talk with her about difficult topics like my child's mental health. She is informed and compassionate. We always feel comfortable with her.

    Kathleen has a great bedside manner and made my son feel at ease. Explained things to me clearly and had my son's best interests at heart. He was there for just a physical but also checked his mental wellbeing, which as a mom, I truly appreciated. Would highly recommend Dr. Go and the West High clinic.
