Dr. Clarke is not only knowledgeable and helpful, but has a wonderful bedside manner. His commitment to ethics and kindness is quickly revealed in the way he treats his patients with respect. My contact with him has been through his work in Obstetrics (although he is a Family Practice physician), and it doesn't matter to him if you're a wealthy, married mother, or a young, single mom, he treats you with respect, gentleness, and kindness. If I were to find myself pregnant again, I would absolutely use him for my prenatal care and at my birth. He also teaches in our hospital's residency program, and I am thankful that the next generation of doctors has doctors like him to set an example.
