Meet Dr. Cynthia Guadalupe Keator

Cynthia Keator, M.D., has dedicated her career to the field of pediatric epilepsy, in part because there is always something new to learn, and especially because great strides are constantly being made in the medical treatments available to kids who are diagnosed with this condition. These advances make profound differences in the lives of children and their families. On a daily basis, Dr. Keator witnesses children outgrow the condition, go into remission or find effective treatment.

"I wanted to go into medicine my whole life. And I also knew I wanted to help children. Most kids change their minds a million times but I didn't. I always knew I wanted to do this," says Dr. Keator. Today, she is proud to doctor at Cook Children's and an integral part of a neurology team that is making such huge difference in the lives of children.

Her study of pediatric epilepsy and dedication to those who have it extends well beyond one-on-one interaction with patients. Dr. Keator is active in the Epilepsy Foundation of Texas, a program that offers children statewide support and education, and even provides summer camps for children with epilepsy.

All children want to be physically active and that is a common ground she shares with patients. Having spent her residency in Colorado she has become an avid skier.

Dr. Keator holds another unique distinction: she competed in the Miss America Pageant, and while she could have played the piano for her talent portion of the competition, she chose instead to perform a ventriloquist act. She is married and is a mother of 1 (as well as mother to two dogs)

Dr. Keator took her time, really talked with us, answered all our questions and never once seemed put out or impatient. I wanted to cry after our appointment- it went SO WELL. From the beginning, everyone was kind, smiled and genuinely seemed to want to help. They ALL SMILED. I know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but when you spend so much time in doctors offices and hospitals, its those little things that make a massive impact. In the five years and six months of my sons life, we have never had a better experience. We will continue to make the drive to see Dr. Keator, and should we need to add any other specialists to our roster, I'll be requesting Cook Children's as well. With all of this special needs mama's heart, Thank you. – Patient family

Your hospital is beautiful. The people are what is most important and they were all courteous, but coming to such a nice place makes an appointment like this more enjoyable than it would otherwise be.
August 16, 2024

Dr. Keator was a good listener. Our visit felt like a collaboration in terms of deciding next steps for our daughter. I appreciated that she didn't push or even bring up an EEG. She respected us and seemed familiar with our daughter's genetic doctor and his research. She went out of her way to allow us to schedule a follow up on a day she would not normally be seeing patients.
August 08, 2024

Very good experience overall!

Nurse Amy and Dr. Keator they are truly amazing and Amy is a life line in my scariest times.
June 18, 2024

Dr Keator is amazing! We had an eeg scheduled directly before our appointment. The eeg showed new seizures and she got us in almost an hour before the scheduled appointment. She immediately put my mind at ease and gave me a clear diagnosis. She quickly had a plan and I left feeling confident I knew how to help my daughter.

May 25, 2024

She answered all the questions I had and gave me solutions that best fit my child
May 20, 2024

Cooks Children has been my son's provider since the age of six. He has had nothing short of exceptional care throughout his time there. Neither my son nor us, his parents, ever want him to leave Dr Keator's care. Unfortunately, that day will come at some point and that will be a very tearful day. Everyone he has ever had contact with, whether in the clinic or the hospital, has provided exceptional care. You are very fortunate to have such exceptional, caring personnel. Bravo!!
April 25, 2024

Everyone I have spoken with at Cook's is very helpful from the receptionist/schedular, the nurse and of course Dr. Keator.
April 21, 2024

Dr. Keator has really helped to lessen [...]. When calling the office in San Angelo to schedule, reschedule and request medication refills, everyone I speak with is very helpful. This is such a great attribute to Cook Children's because parents of a sick child don't need any unnecessary barriers so it's always a joy to speak with helpful people. Thank you for the care my daughter receives.
