About Ricky C. Mehta, MD

  • When he is not working, Dr. Mehta enjoys working out, running, trail hiking, being on the lakes, sports, spending time with friends and family, and then, “good old Netflix!” Being relatively new to Central Texas, Dr. Mehta looks forward to exploring all the area has to offer.

I chose Rheumatology because it’s an evolving field of medicine that has made great strides in treatments available for various rheumatology diseases. It is a very rewarding, but at the same time, very humbling specialty, where I make very close connections with patients. I practice good patient care by listening to patients, followed by a thorough physical exam, labs, and imaging studies to support a diagnosis and treatment plan.

    Dr. Mehta is a very personable, professional, and caring! He prepares for each visit by reviewing all my lab results and visit summaries with other physicians. He is an awesome physician.

  • October 8, 2026

    Dr. Mehta was very helpful, giving me some information about treatment I had never received before, and I am very happy with his plan for treatment, as I was hoping to have the medication on hand for gout in the future and he provided that with better instructions on proper usage than I had ever received before. I’ve had multiple good experiences with the person who helped me at the front desk being quick and thorough, as well.
