Great doctor!
Dr. Clarke explained and discussed all medical concerns with me, she listened and responded in a manor that helped me understand what might be going on with me. The other staff in the office was very organized even through they were moving offices at the time.
I received the best care possible. I could not be happier with the change this provider made in my health and my future.
Always good experience with Dr. Clarke she is very thorough.
[...] I know that I am in the right hands with Dr. Clarke.
