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 Clark is great!
Dr Clark helped me through a very difficult day. He took time to look for any solution that might help with sever Meniere's disease. I liked him a lot

Saved my life. Very interesting experience.
I rushed to the ER with severe pancreatitis, and Dr. Clark was the doctor. He was informative and intelligent and I genuinely liked speaking with him. He seemed to have the weight of the world on his shoulders and I can see why. I was in a dangerous spot, a complicated spot. With levels of lipase that were lethal, and short staff (nurses, paramedics, etc) he had some hard decisions to make about flying me to Bend or finding a way to save me. After a few days of no sleep, he came in to let me know that it wasn’t in my hands anymore - they were going to fly me to bend so I could have an ERCP surgery there. It saved me. As soon as I got to Bend - that night the surgeons there gave me an ERCP, found my problem, and solved it. It was amazing. I went from the most extreme pain in my life to only needing a little for pain relief. I’m grateful he made the decision he did. The reason for stars is that his staff had bad attitudes. Seemed like they didn’t know pancreatitis pain.

He didn't take time with us and didn't tell us what was actually wrong with our daughter. We also heard him saying unkind things (not quietly) about us down the hall.

The only reason this guy gets 1 star is because I cant go lower. The guy don't even recognize severe dehydration or heat stroke signs. Accuses people of being a drunk because they have one drink after a days work instead of getting to the root of the problem. HDH has really dipped the bottom of the barrel when they hired this wacko.
