About the Founder

Built by someone who has
done every job in the room.

Deborah Foster Kirkpatrick didn't come to Epic from IT. She came from the floor. Before her first go-live, she had already managed a Cardiology and Internal Medicine clinic, run front and back office operations, earned a degree in Healthcare Administration, and completed business school for billing and coding. For the past 15 years she has trained, implemented, and led go-live teams across countless Epic deployments. She built Go-Live Sidekick because she knew exactly what consultants needed. She had been that consultant.
