Austin Regional Clinic (ARC) doctors, advanced practice clinicians (APCs), 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 doctor and APC 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 or APC’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 doctor or APC bio page on the website. We calculate our doctor and APC 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 or APC receive a survey. The results are based entirely from patients who have actually been treated by the physician or APC 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. Pyron grew up in San Antonio. When she is not working or serving as Team Physician for various sports, Dr. Pyron loves being with her dog, Clarabelle, who loves to go for walks, play stick or ball at the park, swim, and search for items based on scent. Dr. Pyron also enjoys the outdoors, “except when it’s the middle of summer heat in Texas!” She also loves her musculoskeletal medicine practice – whether working with an Olympic athlete or the average person who has an injury, it is all fun for her. Among her favorite area locales are Barking Springs in the summer – a great place to cool off and play with her dog in the water. She also loves the parks around Austin, year-round.
I was doing well in studying biology and chemistry, but I knew I did not want to be in a lab all day. I wanted to use my skills to help people (or animals). When I was a child, I wanted to be a veterinarian, then changed my direction in college. I truly believe the best way to practice medicine is to listen. And then apply up-to-date knowledge and skills to devise a plan that suits the patients’ needs.

Rating based on “Did the doctor or advanced practice clinician (APC) provide the care you expected?”
Felt rushed and clarification questions were curtly answered - it felt like I was bothering the doctor.
I was disappointed with my experience at this appointment with Dr. Pyron. I felt that the visit was very impersonal and that my concerns were not fully heard or addressed. The doctor seemed rushed throughout the appointment, and at one point she specifically stated that she could not elaborate further on my other concerns because she did not want to get behind in her day. I also felt that I was not given adequate time to answer the questions she was asking. She would ask a question and, before I had a chance to fully explain or formulate an appropriate answer, she would move on or redirect the conversation. This made it difficult for me to communicate my symptoms and concerns accurately. I understand that appointments are time-limited, but I believe patients should be given enough time to answer questions thoroughly, particularly when discussing their health. The overall demeanor of the appointment also made me uncomfortable. The doctor did not smile or display much warmth or engagement during the entire visit. When I had difficulty immediately following one of her instructions, she appeared visibly annoyed, which made me feel as though I was inconveniencing her or wasting her time. Rather than feeling comfortable asking questions or explaining myself, I felt increasingly rushed and hesitant to speak. When I asked what I should avoid, what activities I should consider, I was given a very vague response to simply not do anything that causes pain. I was told that I would need to schedule another appointment to discuss my other concerns which were also orthopedic related. I understand that doctors have busy schedules and that appointments have time constraints. However, I expected to feel heard, respected, and given reasonable guidance about my concerns. Instead, I left feeling rushed and dismissed, with several of my questions unanswered. I hope future patients are given more time, patience, and individualized communication during their appointments.
In general every thing was great.
Dr. Pyron does not seem to care about me. She seems like she wants to get me out of there as fast as possible and doesn’t give me time to come up with questions.
Excellent care by Dr. Pyron and staff. Clear treatment plan and follow-up evaluation. Thank you, Dr. Pyron!
Everyone was awesome, they knew exactly what I needed.
Whether it is an injury from routine activities, exercising, or playing sports, our ARC Sports and Musculoskeletal Medicine team is here for you!
