Insurances accepted
Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.
Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice.
Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Patients appreciate
Patients consistently praise Dr. Justin Dowdy for his thorough, patient communication style and caring demeanor. Many reviewers highlight that he takes time to explain diagnoses and treatment options clearly, often using visual aids like a plastic spine model, and welcomes questions with detailed, understandable answers. Several patients specifically credit him with helping them avoid unnecessary surgery by presenting alternative options first, while others praise his skill and attentiveness during more serious interventions, including one patient who credits him with saving their life during emergency brain surgery. The office staff are also frequently described as courteous, friendly, and professional, contributing to an overall positive and comfortable patient experience.
Patients also share
While the overwhelming majority of feedback is positive, a few reviews point to areas for improvement. One reviewer described a visit as feeling rushed or dismissive, noting that Dr. Dowdy seemed to brush off their concerns and made an odd comment about human spinal anatomy without fully addressing their specific issue. A couple of other reviews were brief and neutral, simply noting the visit was "swift" or "to the point," suggesting that for some patients the interactions felt less personalized or thorough compared to the majority experience.
