Jill E. Clark, MD, FASCRS

My practice philosophy is driven by my own experiences as a patient and as the family member of a patient. Regardless of how invincible any of us might seem at times, when we become a patient, we are at our most vulnerable and sometimes unable to advocate for ourselves.

As a surgeon, my first aim is to make my patients feel seen. As I become a part of their healing journey, I become a guide, an advocate and a technician. Whether my job involves giggling through an embarrassing hemorrhoid exam or courageously confronting a new cancer diagnosis, I consider my professional responsibility both a privilege and an obligation. I will offer my patients both the best of my humanity and the best of medical science. In every case, I aim to help patients with the least invasive, most effective treatment method available.
