June 28, 2021 – Eight Austin Regional Clinic (ARC) physicians representing six specialties are featured in the July, 2021, issue of Texas Monthly in its list of Texas Super Doctors®: Rising Stars Edition 2021. The publishers of Texas Monthly and Super Doctors® released this list of Texas Rising Stars, recognizing medical professionals who have shown excellence in the healthcare field and who are already making an impact early in their careers. The doctors were selected by their peers and verified in a process that combines peer nominations and evaluations with independent research.
"ARC is justifiably proud of our eight ‘rising stars'," said Dr. Anas Daghestani, ARC CEO, "especially since they were nominated by their peers. They and their more than 350 ARC colleagues provide Central Texans with the coordinated, accessible, high-quality care for which ARC is known and respected, even throughout the challenges of the past year."
Thousands of medical professionals in Texas were asked to nominate one or more doctors, other than themselves, from 45 specified medical specialties, asking who they would choose in seeking medical care. The research team identified newer Texas doctors who have been fully-licensed approximately 10 years or less. The "Rising Stars" distinction, now in its 10th year, specifically recognizes younger physicians for Texas Super Doctors, which publishes its main list in December. Only 2.5% of all active Texas physicians are selected to the Texas Rising Stars list.
