Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

It’s only been 2 1/2 weeks since surgery and I feel 100% better than I have in months, I highly recommend Dr Clark

Dr. Clark was wonderful. She spent time listening and reviewed my MRI with me. I would recommend her without reservation.

Dr. Clark's Reply –
Hi, thank you for your rating!
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Clark?
"My 17 year old son herniated a disc. It was leaning on his sciatic nerve causing him terrible, constant pain. He had no will for a social life and could barely even sleep. He was only able to walk very short distances, like from his bedroom to the kitchen, which would result in him panting and needing a break. He walked like a question mark. It was painful for us as well, just to see him like that. We were all helpless and nearing hopelessness. It took us a year, 3 different chiropractors, and four other doctors before we found Dr. Clark’s office. After 2 visits, she decided to perform a lumbar laminectomy. We really feel that it saved his life. Today, nearly 7 weeks after his surgery, he is walking perfectly again. He tells me how grateful he is everyday. We’re all grateful. Dr. Clark is a hero to us. Her work is absolutely amazing and we are immensely impressed and forever appreciative!"

If you have any back/nerve/hip issues, Dr. Clark should be your healthcare provider. She listens, before any type of surgical option, which was very important to me. With less invasive measures (not PT, that did nothing for me) I was able to put off surgery for almost 18 months. During that time I was able to enjoy golf, travel, family. I am now post surgery 6 months. I am following Dr. Clark’s orders, and should be swinging a club later this season. Thank you Dr. Clark!!!

Dr. Clark seems very competent. I took my mother to see her for the second time. My mom has herniated discs in her back and is in a lot of pain which she shared with dr. Clark. Response was sorry for your pain, but I don’t give shots, I’ll give you a referral to the same doctor as last time, who gave you a shot that didn’t work, and you need another consultation with another copay , so maybe we can relive your pain in a month. These doctors have no compassion for patients that are suffering.

I have suffered from severe scoliosis since I was a kid. Since having children, my scoliosis progressed rapidly and became unbearable. My doctor recommended Dr. Clark. At my first sit down with her, I knew I couldn’t have asked for a better surgeon. She did a level 4 spinal fusion, not an easy task! She did an absolutely incredible job. Even my 15 inch incision is flawless. I will barely have a scar! I could not be more grateful for Dr. Clark. She truly changed my life!

I came to Dr. Clark as a fairly complicated case with severe spine & leg symptoms, who'd already had one major spine surgery done in another state. The level of care and understanding she showed was outstanding, and after performing a major lumbar surgery on me in September 2016 she continues to treat me, answering all my questions, listening to my concerns, and making certain that together we come up with the most viable options for the treatment needed as I battle my ongoing condition.

After waiting two months to see Dr. Clark, I wound up seeing an assistant. I have extreme back and knee pain that severely limit my mobility. I told the person I saw that I had to lie on the floor twice when I made my dog's dinner. That's about a two minute task. The assistant didn't even check my mobility. They just said to go to physical therapy and take over the counter pain meds. My brother dove me an hour to get there. It was a complete waste of time.
