Austin Regional Clinic (ARC) doctors, staff, and leadership are committed to providing our community with high quality convenient care. One of the ways we demonstrate this priority is through our online transparency.
You can review our provider ratings and comments on our web site with the confidence that they are all based on verified visits. We post all patient feedback relevant to the entire visit and only refrain from posting comments that are libelous, profane, or those that risk the privacy of our patients.
The below guide provides details about how we collect and share our patient feedback.
ARC partnered with Press Ganey to collect patient feedback about their doctor’s visit. We gather feedback from text surveys that are sent after the visit. Press Ganey is an independent third party customer feedback company that provides the technology to collect the feedback and display ratings and comments on our web site. All ratings are submitted by actual patients and verified by ARC.
Patients for whom we have a mobile phone number receive a text survey within two hours of checking in for their visit. Patients are asked to complete the survey and provide ratings and comments regarding their experience at different touch points of their visit. We use this feedback to recognize doctors and staff, identify issues we can correct, and enhance our care.
ARC posts all positive and negative patient feedback that is relevant to the entire visit. We refrain from posting comments that are libelous, profane, or those that risk the privacy of our patients.
ARC asks questions that touch on the overall patient experience related to their visit. Anyone seeking detailed information about each question can view the ratings for each specific question on the Reviews tab on the provider bio page on the website. We calculate our provider star ratings based on the responses to question number six below. We calculate our location star ratings based on the responses to all the below questions.
Since more recent data provides a more accurate picture, we require a minimum of 30 patient surveys per doctor in the last 12 months before we post a physician’s rating.
ARC physicians and staff review all comments and act to rectify issues. Since the purpose of the feedback is to allow us to improve the overall patient experience, we display the last 90 days of comments which are the most relevant for the practice.
No. Only patients having an outpatient visit by an ARC physician receive a survey. The results are based entirely from patients who have actually been treated by the physician in our clinics.
Comments are reviewed and approved prior to being published to the website. If a comment contains any personally identifiable information, that information will be removed from the comment.

Dr. Dollar currently has long wait times for new patients. Please see below for physicians she recommends to new patients wanting to transfer or establish care at ARC.
If Dr. Dollar is your primary care physician, please book your appointment via your ARC MyChart account or call 512-ARC-INFO (512-272-4636).
Dr. Dollar enjoys spending time with her family, including three children, especially when it can be outdoors! She says their two Bengal cats provide lively company as feline members of the family.
My decision to practice medicine comes from a deep desire to make every effort to care for a person both medically and spiritually, as I would hope someone would care for me and my own family. Medicine is not just my job, but a desire to recognize each person’s individual needs. Everyone deserves that level of personal attention – I try daily to provide it.

Liked the nurse. She was very professional, and caring at the same time. ,
Staff is a little above average. Dr Dollar is the best Dr I’ve ever had. She truly cares for her patients and always takes the time to answer all my questions and concerns and provides the best quality of care.
Everyone was friendly and answered my questions. I liked that my doctor took time to find out what I felt about the possibility of using medication and respected my right not to use any if I wish. She also gave me options of ways to handle my situation.
Dr Dollar and Nurse assistant were both great. I had a number of issues to ask about and they took their time. As always!
Dr Dollar is a delightful lady, has performance that lives up to her reputation and is a great benefit to ARC.
Dr. Dollar’s Nurse was excellent as she always is (especially on my and my husband’s My Chart questions). It is always so nice to talk with Dr. Dollar about any concerns I may have. She is very quick with the results from the lab work and any referrals I may need.
