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.

I chose Endocrinology for its complexity and dynamic nature, which allows for a deep understanding of hormonal systems and the challenge of diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders. My personal journey from Pakistan to the United States to pursue medicine and further specialization in Endocrinology has instilled in me a deep appreciation for the diversity of patient populations. I strive to provide comprehensive and compassionate care while positively impacting each one of my patients’ lives and their overall well-being.

Rating based on "Did the healthcare provider or doctor provide the care you expected?"
There was nothing that needed to be changed about the visit. I was well informed about my health conditions and what I needed to do to make adjustments.
Love them!
Excellent, attentive care!

Dr. Yousuf, Farheen (Endocrinologist) I became her 1st patient at center street. I couldn't talk with my voice due to vocal box injury. She was compassionate and with her big heart she found ways to help me communicate with her and didn't rush me in any of my visits with her. She didn't judge me but poured into me with her heart and skill to help me in my process of getting better. My spouse is a Dr. & we both attended the appointments &she has always communicated with both of us. I visited Dr. Yousuf, recently & She realized in our visit that my voice is back and that was the 1st time she heard my voice since I've been in her care. She was so EXCITED, that she brought it to my attention. My voice is 40-50% back but only she knows my struggles/journey w my health and lost of voice. She never turns me away and she recently fit me in her schedule when there was not open slots. She makes time for you and truly care about you. She was so excited to see me and give me my good results with my health in her care and she still came up with a plan to help me succeed in my health. She is also keeping a watch on my voice. She is a blessing to me & my health. To know that I have a real human heart of a Doctor on my team that wants to see you win, is a BIG WIN! Cheers to Dr. Dr. Yousuf, Farheen (Endocrinologist)
Dr. Yousuf was great!
