I have never had a doctor who showed so much concern and compassion as Dr Clark did. She was so willing to answer questions for me even after hours to help me get through this miscarriage. I am and always will be so grateful I had her to help me through this.

Dr Clark was amazing and understanding of our situation. I was not a fan of the fellow over our case and felt that she was judgmental to the fact that we had concerns over finances and was not willing to take finances into consideration.

My only comment is that at both of my postpartum visits, I have felt rushed by the provider. I have rather like a number/statistic and less like a human patient.

Doctor Clark is great and I really like her. However, she said she would put in for some additional lab test and turns out they never did so I would have to get blood drawn twice instead of just once for that mistake, which was a little annoying as I don't love needles.
