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. Broberg loves good food, travel, and spending time with family, which now includes the joy of grandchildren. Music is his primary hobby/passion - singing in his church choir "forever" and, for the last 15 years, playing electric bass in the praise band. He also plays upright bass in a small traditional music group called Buffalograss, which plays for fun and the occasional gig. Dr Broberg also loves trains and has one running in his office -- "for the kids, of course!"
It is a joy to help parents raise healthy children and to watch my patients blossom over the years. Working with kids gives a unique blend of challenge and fun to every day.

We love Dr. Broberg. We’ve been with him since my son was born and absolutely feel like he knows and understands our kiddo.
Visit was not on time, DR was impatient and forceful with strep Covid flu test sticks in my sons nose and throat
My sons PCP wasn’t available on the app for an appointment so I made it with another physician. The doctor I made the appointment with called me and placed my son on his PCP schedule. This was a very kind thing to do because his PCP knows my son and his condition and it’s very helpful not to go through a new person.
We love Dr. Broberg and Nurse! I’ve trusted them with my children for years. Great quality of care and service.
I love how thorough our doc was. Answered all my questions. Did the swab himself! Thank you ARC
Visit went great as always. Dr. Broberg and nurse are the best.
