Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Clarke
Three years ago, I had a regular examination with Dr. Clrake. In my retina, he discovered a suspicious mole or melanoma. He was correct; it was melanoma. He saved my life, but I lost my eye. He saved my life, and the doctors at Wills Eye and the University of Pennsylvania hailed him and were in awe of him. Before seeing Dr. Clarke, I saw my usual ophthalmologist, but he missed it because it had been there for a long time. Doctor Clarke's attention to detail is astounding.

Unique experience with a true caring physician.
In my seventy-two years of life, Dr. Francis Clark is without a doubt one of the greatest physicians I have ever encountered. He is calm, upbeat, thorough, attentive, adaptable, and personal in his demeanor and bedside manner. I went to see him for a routine physical examination of his eyes. In an unprecedented move for a doctor, Dr. Clark made me feel at ease and inquired about my leisure activities. We also talked about the effects of my medications and supplements on the health of my eyes. I've never seen an eye doctor be so concerned and open to considering the whole picture. In my experience, doctors are typically hurried or preoccupied when seeing patients, but not Dr. Dot Clark. In addition to the fact that I needed an eye exam, I felt that this doctor genuinely cared about my overall health. Furthermore, I could see that Dr. Clark has a broad medical background and treats his patients holistically rather than using the standard medical 'fix it and get rid of it' approach.

I am thrilled with the cataract surgery conducted by Dr. Clark. He employs advanced technology that I did not encounter during my first procedure at a different facility. His innovative AURA technology enhances the precision of the outcomes. With his surgery, my vision has improved to 20-15, while the other eye, operated on elsewhere, is now legally blind. The entire procedure lasted approximately five minutes. The results achieved by Dr. Francis Clark are truly remarkable.

I have recently started receiving care from Dr. Clark, and I am extremely satisfied with the quality of attention and service I have experienced. Dr. Clark possesses excellent communication abilities and dedicates ample time to address any concerns I may have. I felt recognized as an individual rather than merely another patient. It is evident to me that Dr. Clark is genuinely committed to the well-being of his patients and thoroughly fulfills his responsibilities. I have never met a physician quite like him. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a doctor.

Tops in his field!
Dr. Francis Clark, a wonderful specialist surgeon at Wills Eye, recently removed my cataract and performed glaucoma surgery. He is an excellent, kind, understanding, and highly skilled physician.

The absolute best
It's hard to find a doctor who combines such expertise with genuine care and compassion, so we are very grateful to have Dr. Francis Clark as our eye doctor. My family has been seeing him for many generations, and we couldn't be happier with the care he provides. He is extremely thorough, knowledgeable, and attentive, always taking the time to listen and make sure we receive the best treatment possible. If you're looking for a doctor who genuinely puts patients first, I highly recommend Dr. Francis Clark.

He did my cataract surgery & ruined my right eye. Left me with a wound in my eye that won't heal & requires stitches. Left with low eye pressure, when it was fine before the surgery. He wrote it off as 'normal for me'. WRONG!

I could not be more happy to be now under the care of Dr Francis Clark. I was prepared to have cataract surgery by a previous eye surgeon as my cataracts “ were urgent”, also requiring extra charges for special techniques. Come to see Dr Clark he found my cataracts were small, but found I have macular degeneration and glaucoma, both for which I am now being treated. He sent me to 2 specialists to have treatment. Just a great doctor.
