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.

Medicine has allowed me to fulfill all my passions – science, education, and serving my community. Ob/Gyn offers the unique opportunity to develop a long-term partnership with my patients and care for them during all stages of their lives. I care for my patients as I would my own family members, listening to their concerns, understanding their values, and individualizing their care. Each patient has a unique set of concerns and goals, and no treatment option is right for everyone. I strive for patient autonomy, shared decision-making, and establishing trust. I also believe it is important to educate patients regarding their health and empower them so that they may play an active role in their own health care.

I get the best care ever from Dr.willamson and her nurse they are amazing and always make me feel so comfortable and taken care of
The wait was too long. Waited one hr for the Dr’s call. I didn’t expect to wait that long for a phone visit that lasted less than 5min. Which makes sense because it was just to get a medication. Wait times for call visits shouldn’t take that long.
Dr. Williamson makes me feel so HEARD. I know she's so busy. I know she has 50 other people to see, but when she's with me, she's focused on me. I feel like I will see her until she retires. I truly value professionals like her and want to evangelize how amazing she is.
Dr Williamson is extremely knowledgeable and takes your feedback into account when providing personalized care. Every time I leave more informed about my health and the many options available to me. I always leave feeling supported and valued.
Dr. Williamson and her assistant are fabulous!! She takes her time and listens, explains well so that the information is easily understood. I highly recommend her.
Love the doctor. Wait time and setting expectation would be helpful. Front staff should call if the doctor is running 45-60 min behind instead of having people wait in the waiting room.
We are happy to announce that McKenna A. Williamson, DO, Ob/Gyn, has joined the team at ARC South Ob/Gyn.
