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.
i had my consult today, oct. 6,
with dr. clark. he was very
thorough, understanding, and a very
nice man. he put everything in
terms i could understand. He explained the risks very thoroughly and the benefits as well, and he listened to me and answered all my questions. Very patient oriented. We talked for at least an hour and a half.
he made sure i understood everything
we discussed. his office staff seems very
kind and caring. especially his insurance
person (lynn). i will go back and see her for "before" pictures and more info and I will see a dietician. so far so good and i am looking forward to my surgery.
