Patient Reviews
Dr Clark and everyone that's in the Ora office are very caring
I got right in for my appointment. They took xrays then meet with Dr. Clark. He showed me the xrays. I have some arthritis in my knee which has damaged the meniscus tendon. He explained all my options and treatments. If my condition worsens I be back to him for replacement surgery.
Fine experience, friendly and professional. On time and I recommend this doctor and ORA .
Doc was great with terrific insight, options for treatment and an explanation of issues. Further, Doc was excellent to sit with and his bedside manner was excellent !
Went for a cortisone shot, it was so painless I didn't realize that I had gotten it.
I was taken in to the examining room right away. Dr. Clark was very nice and solved my problem. Thank you!
Wonderful, efficient staff. Very thorough explanation of my injury and what I can expect regarding recovery. Dr. Clark was an active and compassionate listener. I highly recommend him to anyone with a shoulder injury.
Dr. Clark is always great with the athletes. Always have a great experience and I’m really thankful.
Dr. Clark at ORA has provided outstanding care for both my son and me. We’ve each seen him for separate foot and athlete related issues, and every experience has been consistently excellent. He is thorough in his evaluations, takes the time to explain everything clearly, and always listens carefully to our concerns. What truly stands out is his kind and patient approach, he never makes you feel rushed and genuinely cares about your well-being. He helped our son get back to his sports safely and confidently. We’re very grateful to have found a specialist we trust so much. We highly recommend Dr. Clark to anyone needing expert and compassionate orthopedic care! ⸻ Let me know if you’d like to include specific conditions or treatments he helped with.
Dr. Clark was on time, friendly, and professional. He explained the procedure very well. I would highly recommend him .
Everyone was so nice and polite and caring
Having previous rotator cuff surgery and then my arm quit functioning I was referred to Dr. Clark at ORA for evaluation. He said the only option I had was a reverse shoulder replacement. He performed the surgery with great success. I’m now 6 months post surgery and have a range of motion surpassing his expectations. He is a very kind person who cares about his patients and their recovery. I highly recommend Dr. Clark for anyone needing an orthopedic doctor. Thank you Dr. Clark!
I was very pleased with my appointment with Dr. Clark. He understood my condition and is the first doctor in several years who is attempting to find the cause of my pain in my right leg. Looking forward to subsequent appointments. Dell Wagner
Dr. Clark at ORA stepped in to review my progress after multiple foot surgeries performed by a specialist who is no longer available! What a delight he was! He x-rayed and reviewed my mobility and explained any and all my questions! I truly appreciated his kindness and professionalism. Thank you kindly! Theresa
Very efficient with my time and took the extra step to explain the issue I was having and let me know my options to help me. Great experience and I thank Dr Clark for his professionalism and help.
Great doctor
Very attentive listen to what I had to say tried his best to solve my problems
Dr. Clark was very informative and talked to me as a person and used terminology I understood about my issue. The staff was kind and helpful.
Dr. Clark takes time to listen to cause of injury and examines the affected limb. He explains findings of the Xray and physical examination and prescribes the appropriate treatment.
Staff was friendly and efficient. Very well organized. Thank you!!
Very to the point and knowledgeable.
Dr. Clark took the time to listen to me regarding my symptoms. He did a very thorough examination and explained my condition and the options that were available to me.
Great job by Dr.Clark and his staff. They were friendly, professional, and did a great job of explaining my issues and the treatment options available moving forward.
Appointments and care with Dr. Clark are easy and positive. There is little waiting to start with. After trying many ways of caring for my shoulders, it became clear that it was time to do a replacement surgery. Dr. Clark is so knowledgeable that he explains the pros and cons-and the decision was truly mine. The surgery was straightforward and went without any problems. I am still working on strengthening my shoulder, but I can do almost everything. It has been a pleasure to work with such a kind, skilled, caring and respectful doctor and staff. I totally recommend Dr. Clark at ORA.
(Translated by Google) He is the best in his field with a lot of experience and he takes his time to listen in order to offer solutions. I highly recommend it for your health. (Original) Il est meilleur dans son domaine avec beaucoup d’expérience et il prend son temps pour écouter afin de proposer des solutions. Je vous recommande fortement pour votre santé.
I was so impressed on how fast I was as able to get in to see Dr. Clark for my knee pain. I was thrilled to receive a cortisone shot. I feel SO much better.
Excellent care!
Dr Clark really listens to you. My husband and I think he's the best
Dr. Clark is wonderful, busy guy though! He has a pleasant personality and I felt like I was in good hands. The day of my shoulder surgery he made me feel comfortable and at ease. It’s time now for my other shoulder and I have no worries or fear.
Dr Clark is very good at listening to my symptoms and excellent at explaining what they mean then giving me options and remedies.
Great personality makes you feel very comfortable and explains everything
Great guy did my tight shoulder few years back. Works great.
I had been to my regular doctor several times over the course of 6 or 7 months for the same issue with lots of tests and no answers. She finally sent me to ORA to see Dr Clark and he found the issue in just a couple of minutes and was able to explain exactly what was needed to resolve my knee pain. Thanks to Dr Clark the pain is slowly going away and I'm now able to walk without limping, even after my 12hr shifts at work.
I absolutely love the fact that when I go for a visit, I am never in the waiting room for more than five minutes and it seems like I never have to wait more than five minutes when I get to the room. And the reason I keep coming back is because when I have a problem, it seems to get fixed the first time because of the knowledge and experience and that’s very important to me!!! Dr. Clark and his whole staff are very caring, kind, professional, and I appreciate everything they have done for me!!!
Good communication among team and staff. Dr. Clark took time to explain causes and procedure and answered all my questions.
Dr. Jason Clark and ORA have been excellent to work with. Very thorough and skilled.
Dr Clark listens well. Conducts a thorough exam, makes a diagnosis and then recommends appropriate treatment options
Very well-run organization, ORA and Dr. Jason Clark have provided excellent care. I highly recommend.
The ORA people were very efficient x-rays done and Dr visited and recommended an MRI. I agreed and soon I’ll get a estimation of my problem.
It's only been 24 hours and I feel great I worked 1 and 1/2 hours over time and I didn't hurt at all. It was a great feeling not going home hurting .
Very very helpful!!
Dr. Clark treats my husband and I both. He is compassionate and very smart. He has treated shoulders, knees, and got me the help I needed on my neck. He is a truly amazing doctor! His staff is equally amazing.
Nearly injury free my whole life,I was now facing complete tear rotator cuff surgery.I had a lot of questions for Dr.Clark and he answered them all making sure I understood everything.Dr.Clark and his staff did a great job on my shoulder and I am recovering very nicely.With that,I give him my highest recommendation.
Dr Clark is excellent in communicating on joint injury and repair options and pain management. Great to dialogue with if you’re an active person and would like to continue that lifestyle.
Entire staff is always courteous, professional and very attentive to my needs.Dr Clark is very knowledgeable and always explains things to me.
All very good!
Dr. Clark listens, answers questions, and offers solutions. Very efficient, and pleasant demeanor.
Explain the test results that had already been completed. Dr. Clark saw me for second opinion. He ordered additional test and explained to me why. He gave me hardcopies of test results which resulted in finding an additional health concern.
I had to go to ORA after a mishap with my knee! I was seen by Dr.Clak. I was pleased to have him as my doctor since he was my doctor in 2018 when I had a knee mishap also!(my other knee) He is very good and asks questions…but most of all..he listens! I like the fact that when he talks to you he looks right at you instead of looking at a computer or reading from a paper.
Dr.Clark and his staff were all wonderful. No wait time. Courteous and professional. Answered any and all questions. Highly recommend ORA and Dr. Clark!
Dr. Clark is a great doctor, takes time and asks/answers questions and explains things to you.
Dr.Clark did a wonderful job explaining everything to me. He was very polite and didn’t rush.
Thank you, Dr. J.C. Clark, for your dedication and compassionate care. I highly recommend ORA to anyone seeking quality medical attention.
Dr Clarke is very informative and compassionate. He listens to your concerns and addresses your issues. I would highly recommend going to ORA Services. They treat their patients with the care and concern. Very friendly staff as well.
I was called in for my appointment a bit early. Dr. Clark came in right away and examined my shoulder. He is very caring and thorough.
Dr Clark is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience. My options were very carefully explained with the pros and cons. Great bedside manner. My surgery for rotator cuff was flawless and far better than the same surgery I had 17 years ago. I highly recommend Dr Clark and his team.
Dr. clark is very kind and a great surgeon
Dr Clark did more X-rays and had pictures to show my problem and explained all options available. Cortisone was injected with no pain. Highly recommend Dr Clark
I have no pain since Dr. Clark gave me a steroid injection in my left shoulder.
Dr. Clark was knowledgeable, caring, efficient, attentive, and amicable!! He took time to answer any questions that I had concerning my condition before and after surgery.
I was very happy with Dr. Clark at my first visit yesterday. He's friendly, looks you in the eye, listens, and explains things well.
Quick and efficient
Dr. Clark was awesome. He’s very experienced and professional. He took the time to explain everything to me and has an excellent bedside manner. He did a spectacular job repairing my meniscus in 2015 and is currently treating me for a running injury. I would definitely recommend Dr. Clark!!!
Excellent doctor and staff.while I was having X-rays I felt light headed and his staff made sure I was ok and offered some snack or drink thought maybe my sugar levels were low. Thank you all so much
All the employees are very nice and Dr. Clark a great doctor and would recommend ORA to anyone.

Staff on this Monday morning was not friendly or much responsive. Totally out of character for all my previous many visits. Dr. Clark was fantastic as usual.
Great guy! Thoughtful gives you insight for future concerns that may arise.
Very efficient. Dr Clark takes his time with you and explains so I understand. I would recommend him to everyone!
What struck me the most about our visit with Dr. Clark is that he directly addressed my 3 year old (the patient) while also including us (parents) in the conversation. He was thorough yet quick! I certainly wish my kid’s arm wasn’t broken, but I’m very confident and happy that he will be well taken care of here.
Dr. Clark and his team are always caring, knowledgeable and efficient. Been a patient for several years and I highly recommend him.
Dr. Clark is easy to talk to. He listens to what I have to say and communicates at my level. Dr. Clark did my rotor cuff surgery which I'm very satisfied with. I had 2 complete tears and 3 or 4 partial tears. 6 months after surgery I'm pain free and back to 90% full movement. I highly recommend Dr. Clark, ORA and his team.
Awesome experience. Dr Clark and staff efficient and thorough
Fast. Friendly. Knowledgeable. All of my options were explained and the Dr let me decide what was best for me. I will never go to any other orthopedic facility.
Awesome experience. Dr Clark and staff efficient and thorough

I have had many orthopedic surgeries performed by many surgeons.! I must say that Dr. Clark answered all of my questions, offered solutions and thorough explanation as to what to expect before, during and after my upcoming shoulder replacement. I feel extremely confident and in good hands with Dr. Clark.
Dr. Clark is a very down to earth man. My questions were all answered clearly. My treatment that day was explained so that I knew what was happening and that it was going to be uncomfortable. I appreciate the care he gave me.
Dr. Clark was very attentive to my problem and was helpful in my problem.
Throughly investigated the cause of my symptoms. Presented solutions for correction on both of my shoulders. I frequently refer others to Dr. Clark.
Very thorough with diagnosis and plan for treatment.
Very nice doctor to work with.
Dr Clark was very informative, cared and was understanding of what I wanted. Now Dr Collins, different story. I saw him for a different reason in the past and he said that it was impossible that I have scoliosis only ?% of the population has that. This Dr didn't even look at my chart before he walked in because I was getting seen to get curvature in my spine measured.
Very professional and caring.Thank you
My experience with ORA and Dr.Clark was very helpful. He explained my options, made a drawing right there on the table explaining my situation and gave me a range of options to address my recovery. He didn’t push, took the time to address my ailment, and I left feeling confident and comfortable with a game plan for treatment.
Dr. Clark is the best!
Very sore right now. Trying new drug so far not to good, give it a few more days. Thank you Jen 😊
Dr Clark did a great job with me. He explained my options with some recommendations. I chose what was needed. He explained everything before he did the Procedure. Helped my pain I would recommend him to my friends and family.
