Dr Clark is very compassionate and friendly extremely knowledgeable. And he listens to your problem explains things thoroughly is very prompt but does not rush you. His staff is polite well organized and very friendly. My surgery went off without a hitch I couldn't be more pleased with the results and my follow-ups were prompt and all my questions were answered. I would recommend Dr Clark to anyone without a moments hesitation. He's a wonderful man and an excellent surgeon

I have had seven orthopedic surgeries. My most recent performed by Dr. CLARK in 2013. He and his staff are thoughtful, kind, informative both pre and post surgery, and readily available to answer the patients questions. It is good to know that there is a surgeon in Yuma who appears to want the patient to know that he or she is important to him. He doesn't rush patients through his office like they were cattle.

Dr. Clark was a great doctor and found the problem with my knee. Dr. Clark performed surgery and fixed my knee. The surgery was performed at Pinnacle Hospital in Crown Point, Indiana and I would rate Dr. Clark 5 stars but they only go to 4.
