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.
Love Dr. Clark, have been using him for years. Would not use anyone else as long as he is available.

Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Clark III?
My last appointment with Dr. Clark was in August (?) of 2021. I have since had some health issues that I need to let him know about but cannot get past the answering service that refuses to transfer me to the Nurse to provide the information regarding my health and how Dr. Clark wants to proceed.
I was supposed to have a series of Epidural Injections but my blood pressure has been dropping to the point where I have to take medication to keep it up...it is my Dysautonomia. Due to my blood pressure dropping without notice and randomly I am not allowed to have the Epidural Injections. So I need to be able to get a message to Dr. Clark that I need to try a different treatment but I just cannot get in touch with them!!!
Dr. Clark is a great doctor!! The phone service isn't now!!!!!!
