    I saw Dr. Cowan today for the first time ever and felt immediately that he was genuinely concerned with my well being. I recommend him!!

    Cowan is very personable, and yes he can be touchy-feely, and a close talker, lol, not in a bad way at all.

Her bedside manner is impeccable, she listens, she cares and she is such a wonderful doctor. I am now recommending all of my friends to her and hope they are lucky enough to become patients as I know her practice is becoming very full. Could not recommend her enough!

She listens, takes her time with you, follows up, etc. My husband and I both felt extremely comfortable and at ease with her from the moment we met. Second, she's a great doctor. All our visits were informative and through, and she sent us to a specialist once when there was a potential possibility of a complication, as a precaution. Furthermore, and perhaps more importantly, is that she really cares. I know there are some doctors who push c-sections, inductions, cord banking, etc., but Dr. Mileur was all about "let's deliver a healthy baby". My delivery ended up being quite complicated - the baby was too big to come out vaginaly, but Dr. Mileur by NO means jumped to a c-section as a solution, until literally everything else was explored. She did end up performing my c-section, which was as smooth as could be, and the stiching was great - have been healing very well. My baby ended up in the NICU for a little while after birth, and she even went to visit him there (babies have a different doctor once they are born, so she literally went just to see how he was doing). She's definitely my doctor for all my future pregnancies.

They do a really excellent job, the office feels calming and welcoming to me (which is not something a lot of medical offices can boast).

    Like other women on yelp... if I could give Dr. Abikhalid 6 stars I would too!…read more Office is clean, beautiful. Staff are nice, her appts run pretty much on time. Im a GenXer, entering perimenopause at 49yrs old. I just moved to TX fm Southern California where I had access to some of the best medical in the world HOAG, UCLA, USC medical centers. Looking back I was prob in peri around age 44-45 with heavy cycles, brainfog, back sweats, major insomnia. She was one of the ONLY MD's who actually listened, saw and heard me. Its NOT normal to "deal with our next phase female symptoms". I went for a second opinion on a hysterectomy after seeing another gyn who I felt was treating me like a paycheck vs a patient. I was also gaining weight at a rapid amt which has never happened in my entire life. Dr. Abikhaled listened to me, explained why I am indeed a candidate for a hysterectomy based on my labs, ultrasound, biopsy, symptoms. She was also transparent sharing if I didn't feel comfortable or confident with her, she had 2 other colleagues she could refer me to. THIS is the type of medicine I need for me. Dr. Abikhalid is also a very clear communicator. She is very frank while having a nice bedside manner which I appreciate. Fast forward to pre-surgery consultation, based on my case I discussed keeping my ovaries bc Im not in full meno yet and didn't want to slam into meno like some of my friends did. She agreed that was a good option for me. I had my hysterectomy, preserving my ovaries via robotic surgery. It was 90min, outpatient. She was sure to have my pain meds ordered ahead of time. I had 4 small incisions from the surgery. No bleeding. I was off oxy on day 3. Managed pain with Tylenol/motrin. 1 week out I felt pretty strong, an ab binder would have been useful for the 1st 2 weeks esp for sleeping so buy 1 ahead of time (amazon has tons). Helps for ab core support. 3 weeks I was doing short walks outside yet still got fatigued pretty easily. Got back on my hrt patch and no more brain fog, no more insomnia, no more swollen hands and ankles. 6weeks I felt strong and fatigue finally was gone. I was cleared to do light weights again. Im at 8weeks. Im back exercising. Lifting up to 30lb. Back to weight training. Feeling strong, clear headed, no more swelling in my feet/ankles, insomnia is very little and i still get "mild" back sweats around 2/3am. Nothing like pre-hysterectomy where i was sweating through my shirt. If you have peri symptoms and painful or super heavy cycles like I had that is NOT normal. See Dr. Abikahlid. She is one of the best in womens health.

    My 19-year-old daughter was seen today by an ARC Nurse Practitioner at the North Austin Ob/Gyn -…read moreRenfert Way, Suite#250 location for a possible medical issue. As expected, she was led to an exam room and asked to disrobe in preparation for her medical exam. While she was awaiting the Nurse, an individual knocked on the door and asked to enter. Believing it was part of her ARC medical visit, she agreed. It was not. An individual entered and presented my child with a printout asking if they wanted to take part in a gender related study involving mental health issues that may or may not involve compensation (per the printout). Per my child, they pressed her to sign up and participate. Caught off guard by this unexpected intruder, my child responded they would speak with their mother first and took a picture of the handout to be polite. Again, my child was disrobed in the exam room awaiting an ARC medical professional when this individual entered on a completely unrelated matter and solicited them to take part in a study that had NOTHING to do with their medical care. How is ARC allowing this to occur? No one should be allowed to solicit disrobed patients inside an ARC exam room. These actions unnecessarily confused my child and made them extremely uncomfortable. If ARC wishes to setup a table in the office lobby for outside solicitors to attract interested parties, then so be it, but to allow them to enter exam rooms with disrobed patients is unacceptable and should be stopped immediately. Again, this solicitor had nothing to do with the purpose of my child's medical visit and was simply seeking applicants for their study. The printout in question showed "ROC - Reach out and Connect" on the front. ARC should not allow solicitors into the exam room under any circumstances! **Response to Annie A's reply: I attempted to send this complaint via your online form on the ARC contact page you're referring to, but it failed to accept my submission. Too many characters? Don't know - it did not provide an error message. Why not share your work contact email here so I, and others, may reach out to you directly with our concerns? Isn't that the purpose of "customer service"? Also, why not share your reply to my review here so possible future ARC patients may better understand how this issue is being handled moving forward? Resolution for me will be ARC acknowledging exam room solicitations (such as my child experienced) are unprofessional and will be prevented moving forward. Thank you.

I have never had such a quick pelvic exam in all the years I have been seeing a gyno (since I was 17 and am now 46) so I know what an exam is supposed to be. You blink and it's over. He asked me zero questions about what I was there for and I had to ask the nurse to send him back in so I could ask a question about my irregular periods since I am starting perimenopause. During my first appointment I appreciated that he asked me about my other health issues, but during this appointment he literally gave me medical advice about it - suggesting I try GLP1s for my heart failure! Even my cardiologist (who focuses on the "plumbing" won't give me medical advice on the "electrical" side because it isn't what he is trained in. Upon some basic online research, GLP1s can be very harmful for someone with my condition and EF number Every time I go in he is also pushing that I get other things done there like my mammogram. They frame it as convenience, but after the GLP1 suggestion it all feels like a money grab with very little concern for women's health. My mother died of ovarian cancer so I cannot continue seeing someone whom I feel is not thorough. Not for me.

    Do not go here. This…read moreclinic is a completely different place than it was when Dr. Debo was there. They lost their only truly excellent fertility doctor years ago, and now they have OB-GYNs without fertility board certification providing care at the same premium price. The approach is completely one-size-fits-all. Patients are pushed through the system like cattle. There is no individualized care. When I tried to discuss what had worked for us previously--the protocol that resulted in the birth of our son--I was told that this new doctor (a sub from the Dallas clinic) does things the same way for everyone. Apparently personalized fertility treatment is no longer a priority. After our transfer failed, they called to tell me I was no longer pregnant. Less than an hour later, I received a $5,500 bill for the next cycle. There was no discussion about my loss, no conversation about next steps, no attempt to understand how I wanted to move forward. Just an invoice. I am now transferring to a smaller clinic in Austin that actually provides individualized care, and Kindbody has made the process unnecessarily difficult. I completed all required paperwork, yet I am being told I must wait nearly two months for a 10-15 minute "protocol call" simply to give permission--again--to transfer my embryos. I find it hard to believe that a phone call requiring a simple yes or no cannot be accommodated sooner. One employee even told me there are "so many people transferring their embryos to other clinics right now." When I responded that this didn't seem like a good sign for Kindbody, she immediately tried to walk it back. That interaction spoke volumes. The lack of personal care became especially obvious during my second transfer cycle. Patients are literally referred to as "batches." You'll hear staff talk about your batch and how many women are in it. The waiting room is packed before 7 a.m. because they continue taking on more and more patients without providing the level of care those patients deserve. At the end of the day, Kindbody feels like a business focused on volume, not families. Fertility treatment is one of the most emotional, vulnerable, and expensive experiences a person can go through. Patients deserve compassion, communication, and individualized treatment. I experienced very little of that here. Save your money, your time, and your emotional well-being. There are far better fertility clinics out there.

    For starters, their communication sucks, relying solely on messages through their internal system…read moreinstead of contacting me directly. On top of that, when my wife was going through a two week long procedure, I had to take off of work to care for her during and after the procedure. I requested Kindbody to fill out FMLA paperwork to cover me for being out to take care of my wife and they refused to do so, saying that "the male gender is not eligible for FMLA." So, what I am getting from this is that I am not going to be covered for taking care of my wife during the time she is going through any medical treatment from this company. Do NOT use Kindbody if you do not have someone else that can care for your spouse during treatments in your absence.
