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
Dr. Justin Dowdy receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients, with the vast majority of reviews awarding 4.5 stars or higher. Patients consistently praise his thoroughness and willingness to explain diagnoses, conditions, and treatment options in clear, understandable terms—several reviewers specifically noted his use of visual aids, such as a plastic spine model, to help them understand their condition. Many reviewers highlighted his attentive listening skills, patience in answering questions, and caring, compassionate demeanor. His office staff and the overall care team were also frequently commended as courteous, professional, and efficient. A few patients described particularly significant experiences, including one who credited Dr. Dowdy with saving their life and another who praised the care received during a serious health crisis involving brain surgery.
Patients also share
Opportunities for improvement were rarely mentioned, as the feedback is overwhelmingly positive. However, one reviewer described an experience that stood out as an exception, noting that Dr. Dowdy seemed dismissive during their visit, made an unusual comment about human anatomy, and appeared not to fully engage with the scans they brought. A couple of other reviews, while still rated positively, used brief language like "swift" or "to the point," which may suggest that some visits felt shorter or less detailed than others, though these reviewers did not express dissatisfaction.
