Center for Weight Loss Success, PC Bariatric Center
My first impression of Dr. Clark was, Wow this guy is really handsome and has such a caring look about him. He was very informative in the support group meeting I attended. My initial office visit was very informative, Dr. Clark answered all my questions, and was very thorough and knowledgeable.
His staff was very friendly and I'm looking forward to working with them in the future.
Dr. Clark recommends that after the surgery you listen to your body, and get as much rest as you feel you need if you need to take 6-8 weeks do it.
The risk of surgery was addressed in a very honest and clear manner.
So far I think I've made an excellent choice with Dr. Clark.
Dr. Clark is very knowdgeable about the procedure. He is a very caring physician before and after the surgery. Not only did his staff send me the info before going to see him but after I got there he went over every thing that was in the booklet. He is a cutie-patootie. He was very professional though and I liked that. The staff was very informative and Jamie was very much in tuned with his rules and procedures. I had my surgery the 25th of Sept. 00. I came home Friday and I feel fine not 100% but it will come. I go back to him this Friday and get my staples out. I can't wait until then and see how much weight I have lost. What ever you do after and before walk walk walk. It will be much better on you.
It has been 4 months and I have lost 100 pounds and feel good. I am so thankful for Dr. Clark, if he wasn't married I would marry him myself. Thanks!!!!!

I met Dr. Clark for the first time today. He was wonderful. He
took all the time I needed to describe the surgery to me and answer
all my questions. Very straight forward.
I found his staff to be very supportive as well. Before I left the office
his insurance gal called Healthkeepers to see if they cover the
operation, and they do.
I had already met Dr. Clark at a seminar I attended, and also at a support group meeting. He is very knowegable and seems to understand the suffering obese people go through in their daily lives.
So, I was happy to call and receive an appointment date of February 15th. Dr. Clark was very friendly and explained the procedures...both the good things and the possible problems. He was very down to earth and spoke as a friend, rather than an authority figure. He really put me at ease...and I went away with all my questions answered.
The next thing to do is to get that Insurance and the surgery date !!!
Dr. Clark seems to be very caring and understands what an important decision this is. He took lots of time with his explanations. His office staff has been very helpful. So far I haven't seen anything to dislike. He has gone into post-op details quite abit and has an extensive aftercare program. The risks have been explained in detail.
DR.CLARK SEEMS TO BE A VERY CARING DOCTOR AND HE TAKES THE TIME TO TALK AND TO LISTEN TO YOU WHEN YOU HAVE YOUR OFFICE VISIT. I WENT TO ONE OF THE SUPPORT MEETINGS ON WED.THE 9th AND HE WAS THERE AS WELL AS HIS NURSE LYNN. I WAS VERY INPRESSED WITH THAT. HE LETS YOU ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT ANYTHING AN HE WILL ANSWER EVERYONE IF HE CAN. TRACY WAS THERE TO TALK ABOUT SOME OF THE THINGS YOU CAN EAT OR NOT,AND ABOUT SUPPORT PEOPLE WHEN YOU NEED THEM. IF ANYONE HAS THE CHANCE TO GO TO A SUPPORT GROUP YOU NEED TO GO.
Very nice man who is truly interested in the improvement of his patients' health. His office staff is friendly especially Lynn. The support group was formed last night and will meet monthly. 11/5/99-called his office yesterday and spoke to Lynn who gave me info about self-pay process and hospital numbers to arrange payment plan.
Update-1/24/00- 1 week post-op-Dr. Clark came to see me everyday I was hospitalized. This made me feel that he really cares about his patients. The hospital staff was very nice also and they liked the fact that my roommate and I walked around the halls excersizing without being told to do so. My 1st post-op appt is on 1/28/00. I will update after that.
My first impression of Dr. Clark was that he is very intelligent and thorough. He wanted to make sure I understood everything, good and bad that had to do with the surgery before I committed to having it. Now, 7 months after my surgery I have come to know him as a very caring provider. I am so glad I chose him to be my surgeon.
His staff was equally caring and nice. Lynn and the others are such a pleasure to see each time. They do anything they can for you.
I didn't find anything I could say that I don't like. I would recommend Dr. Clark to anyone considering this surgery. If I need anything or have any concerns between post-op appointments I feel I can call him at anytime. He has a set schedule for aftercare appointments but like I said, if anything comes up inbetween I know I can let him know.
I would give Dr. Clark and excellent rating. he knows his stuff and cares about you at the same time. I really do not have anything negative to say. My whole experience was made better because of Dr. Clark and his staff.
