About Ricky C. Mehta, MD

  • When he is not working, Dr. Mehta enjoys working out, running, trail hiking, being on the lakes, sports, spending time with friends and family, and then, “good old Netflix!” Being relatively new to Central Texas, Dr. Mehta looks forward to exploring all the area has to offer.

I chose Rheumatology because it’s an evolving field of medicine that has made great strides in treatments available for various rheumatology diseases. It is a very rewarding, but at the same time, very humbling specialty, where I make very close connections with patients. I practice good patient care by listening to patients, followed by a thorough physical exam, labs, and imaging studies to support a diagnosis and treatment plan.

    Dr. Mehta is extremely supportive and attentive. He listens to you, which is a valuable trait in any provider. He is a partner in your care. I appreciate him and believe he will do the best he can for me.

    Kind and helpful, from the Dr to the nurses and the lady who put me the shot I needed. Always kind, efficient and helpful. I'm in good hands at my ARC!!!

    Dr. Mehta and his staff are excellent. They take the time to check in and listen to what is going on with you and your needs. The compassion for care is remarkable. I have been with them for over a year now and can speak nothing but high praises. I had a horrible experience with a previous provider that was beyond unexcusable. I am so glad I decided to no longer be treated by them and come to Mehta and his staff. He has truly helped me substantially and helped me have a better quality of life. And for him and his staff, I will forever be grateful.
