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. Nolan grew up in the Chicago area and moved to Austin with his wife, also a Midwesterner, over 17 years ago “to find a warmer spot.” In his free time, Dr. Nolan enjoys playing music and building musical instruments, as well as other woodworking projects.
I chose medicine because I was inspired as a child by my pediatrician. I found my specialty while doing research in neuroscience as an undergraduate, which eventually developed into a PhD thesis. Neurology is a field of medicine that involves a holistic approach to the health of the patient. I enjoy approaching the care of my patient and their often complex medical issues by trying to understand their problem and improving their systems.
An EEG is a test that detects abnormalities in your brain waves, or in the electrical activity of your brain. The test is used to help detect neurological issues.

Electromyography (EMG) measures muscle response or electrical activity in response to a nerve’s stimulation of your muscle. The test is used to help find nerve and muscle problems.
ARC neurologists and advanced practice clinicians (APCs) provide care for a variety of neurological conditions, including stroke, seizures, Parkinson's disease, migraines, and dementias.
A stroke, or brain attack, happens when blood flow to your brain is stopped. It's an emergency situation. Stroke symptoms may happen suddenly and each person’s symptoms may vary. Symptoms may include weakness, drooping, or numbness of the face, arm, or leg, usually on one side of the body, having trouble reading, speaking or understanding, problems with vision, such as dimness or loss of vision in one or both eyes, dizziness or problems with balance or coordination.

All ok
I really appreciate Dr. Nolan,‘s patience, knowledge, and personal warmth I think would be the best way to express it. He listens carefully. He has learned to explain things clearly to me because I’m not someone who does what I’m told unless I understand why I should do what he says.For example he wants me to take my blood pressure whenever I feel queasy which might be the beginnings of vertigo.So now I do it since he explained his concerns if it is gets too low.
The wait for the appointment was longer than I would have liked. However, the team was wonderful.
Dr Nolan’s nurse went above and beyond to secure this much needed appointment. Nurse was outstanding as always. Dr Nolan showed deep care and concern. Thank you all.
Dr Nolan and his staff are excellent and run the office like a well oiled machine. I specially like that. You’re not sitting out in the waiting room for half an hour to an hour past your appointment time. The only negative I can say is that Dr Nolan is so popular that unless your visit is determined to be medically, urgent, it can be a very long time before you can get an appointment with him. That being said whenever the situation was considered medically urgent, they got me in fairly quickly. I rate Dr Nolan and his staff is at 10.
Today I was to have a nerve test for my hands & fingers but Dr.Patrick Nolan saw a more immediate situation. I told him about a pain in my groin from a fall I had a few days earlier. So he had my hip x-rayed. I didn’t have a broken hip but he saw a greater need & took care of it for me. He has helped me through the years finding issues of mine as I’ve aged. I followed him when he came to ARC. Proud to call him my neurologist!
