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 love helping, caring for, and empowering other people and thrive on challenges, so medicine is a perfect fit for me. I am passionate about preventive medicine and guiding people to live their best lives, whatever those goals look like for them. I collaborate with my patients, spending as much time as needed to understand each other, answer questions, and educate them. I work hard to balance efficiency and warmth with the goal that every patient leaves feeling seen, heard, and reassured.

Rating based on "Did the healthcare provider or doctor provide the care you expected?"
The doctors at ARC seem well schooled, thoughtful, thorough and genuinely caring. As are the nursing, lab and the administrative staff.
Michelle M. is the best! She’s the reason I come back to ARC.
Very quick and easy from booking appt to getting labs done
It was a pleasant visit
My previous PCP (who has since passed) had his own practice, I had him for years and years. I had family and friends who would tell me I should go to ARC I never thought I'd like having a doctor at a clinic. But my experience with ARC along with my chart app has made it easy to schedule and view previous appointments, view medications, notes and anything else I need. MA is exceptionally nice and tentative to my needs. And as for Dr. Meystedt she is an excellent wait amazing doctor she takes care of my needs as I give them to her or before I give them to her. I love my caregivers at this location.
I felt listened to and like my symptoms mattered. I liked that a lot.
