Tara A Clark

I went in for a well-woman exam which is covered 100% by my insurance, but Dr. Tara Clark charged me for a regular visit and listed a bunch of codes that she didn't address at all. I arrived early & was in the waiting room for about 30 minutes. Dr. Clark spent very little time with me. She listened to me for a 5 minute appointment and just typed in what I said as a billing code without actually addressing any of my issues. She didn't run the labs I requested & said, 'I'm going to talk with my nurse and be right back.' However she never came back. The nurse came in and said 'Thanks, we'll see you later.' and I said 'The doctor said she'd be right back.' The nurse looked surprised and said, 'She's onto the next patient.' This happened 3 times to me. I came back to Dr. Clark because she was recommended by one of my friends. I had such a different experience and I'm not sure why. I am always polite and well-spoken, friendly and warm. I didn't have any pain & didn't want any medication.

This Dr is nice and listens but doesn't have very good clinical skills. If you just want a friend then go see her, but if you want a DR, find someone else. I have had nothing but issues with this provider for the last couple years. She is horrible with the portal. Every time send a message in the portal, the response is that I need to make an appointment. She doesn't address pain very well either. I have had kidney stones and I was having pain a few years ago that felt like a kidney stone. An ultrasound was ordered and it said possible kidney stones so I requested a CT scan. She told me no. She didn't order one until I contacted a Urology office and they called her and told her to order a CT which she finally did. It really shouldn't be that difficult. I just went to her the other day for pain in my side. The nurse Britney was horrible. Such an attitude and acted like I was an inconvenience when I asked questions. Dr Clark ordered a CT to rule out kidney stones. She didn't offer… anything for pain and I totally forgot to ask. CT showed no kidney stones but ovarian cysts and I am still having pain. So I sent a message in the portal requesting something for pain even if it's just a muscle relaxer. They told me no and if my pain if that bad then go to urgent care or the ER. This Dr is not an effective Dr at all. I am already looking for a new Dr at this point.

Dr. Clark is amazing. I love her ability to interact with me and she is very easy to talk to

Excellent in listening and implementing your request and concerns

Just seems like they whole process has changed since she been with fair mount family care. It takes them too long to respond back. They lose important paperwork and blame it on the office staff. It takes a long time at least 1 month to get follow up appointment after serious illness and she does not call herself to follow up with questions instead has the nurse call and it is hard to explain to them about your concerns.

Dr. Clark cares about her patients it shows in how she talks to you. She takes her time with you and explains everything. You don't feel rushed like she has to run to another patient. You feel that she truly cares about your health.

Dr Clark is very compassionate about the concerns of my health, she takes her time to listen to what I have to say. Dr. Clark does not rush with me. I really love the fact that she and her staff are concerned and are very compassionate about me. Dr. Clark and the staff knows me and addresses me personally. I would recommend Dr. Clark to all my family and friends. Thanks for being my Dr.

Best Dr I have ever seen. She is so nice and her staff is fun and polite. I really appreciate the time she spends when I come to see her....she is never in a hurry and shows compassion every time I see her.

I will change my primary physician Dr. Clark because of her nurse. If you have a question or a request from her nurse, you need to call at least 3 times during the week. She never answer phone. If you left a message, she call you after one day or two days. If you missed her call, you need to call her again and wait another 2 days. I have this experience three times. Each of them took one week to get call back. It is really frustrating. First time l am writing a review for doctor office.

Dr. Clark takes her time in listening to her patients, gaining a clear understanding of their needs and then provides complete explanation of the how to address the problems. She is an excellent physician!
