If you have received a letter from UnitedHealthcare (UHC) stating that any of the providers listed below are out-of-network, please be informed that refers to their former practice.

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. Winful-Acquaye grew up in Accra, Ghana, and came to the U.S. for her residency in Pediatrics and fellowship in Pediatric Infectious Diseases. She has over 20 years of experience working with pediatric patients. When she is not working, she enjoys spending time at home with her husband, walking her dogs, listening to music, exercising, and supporting church activities. She and her husband have two grown children.
As far back as I can remember, I have wanted to be a physician. My love for children was the driving force behind my choice of Pediatrics. Every smile and hug, every innocent glance from a child, every sick child made well is worth it! I believe in treating all patients with empathy and excellence, using evidence-based medicine. I also believe that every staff member, as part of a team/family, has unique strengths and needs that, when recognized and appreciated, foster unity in achieving our common goal of patient and staff satisfaction.

Rating based on "Did the healthcare provider or doctor provide the care you expected?"
Dr. Winful is super responsive and always makes me feel my children are well cared for. Her follow up calls are really appreciated!
She was very helpful
great service by all involved very happy with my experience
Front desk staff makes all the difference
Both Dr. Winful and her nurse/ medical assistant were exceptional! The nurse did an amazing job of engaging with my kids, and she was a delight to chat with. Dr. Winful called after hours to give us test results and submit a prescription to the pharmacy so that my son could get started on antibiotics right away. I’m so grateful that we have such wonderful, dedicated medical professionals so close to home!
Fue excelente servicio
