Tips for patients

The following physicians and APC remain in-network at ARC, and you may continue seeing them without any changes to your coverage:
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.

ARC South 1st Specialty and Pediatrics
Dr. Coelho was born in Brazil and moved to Connecticut at an early age, growing up in both places. When he’s not at work, he enjoys salsa dancing, crossfit, and exploring the city. Being new to the area, he looks forward to recommendations of places to enjoy in Central Texas.
I chose medicine because it was a challenge. Being an immigrant, I did not want to take my parents’ hard work for granted. I’ve always loved working and being around people, and Pediatrics has allowed me to be an advocate and a healer. I believe that every person in my exam room has a voice, and I try to make sure that the parents and children have all their concerns addressed before leaving the room. In addition, I use my patience, warmth, and humor to connect with the children and really make sure that they feel comfortable in the exam room.

Everyone at ARC are so friendly
Dr. Coelho is our favorite doctor we have seen at all of the ARC locations. He really takes his time and I never feel rushed during my childrens’ appointments, even though I know Dr. Coelho has a busy schedule. He explains things in a way that’s easy for me to understand and remember, and my kids love him.
Staff is always friendly and professional.
