I wanted to extend my condolences to you. Dr. Clark meant so much to Virginia and to me, especially during the difficult times when we needed his guidance the most. His dedication to helping us find the right specialists and surgeons gave us hope when we felt lost. I’ll always be grateful for the care and kindness he showed during those challenging moments.

Terese, I also want to thank you for everything you did to support us. Your compassion and unwavering help were truly a comfort, and I will never forget the way you worked alongside Dr. Clark to ensure Virginia’s well-being.

I also want to thank you both for the times we met at the office and for the dinners we shared together. Those moments were more than just professional interactions; they were opportunities for genuine connection and support, and I truly appreciated that.

I’ll always remember Dr. Clark’s generosity and expertise, and I feel fortunate to have known him. Please know that the love and care you showed during those times will always be deeply cherished. I feel so fortunate to have had you both in our lives during those moments. You not only impacted Virginia’s journey and health  but also touched my heart with your compassion and commitment to her well-being. You are both in my thoughts during this difficult time.

With deepest sympathy,

What a loss.  Dr Clark had a way of dealing with me.  I was not interested in taking any form of meds for my blood pressure.  I even told him, when we first met, I would rather take witches bat wing brew than any meds!  He just patiently explained to me the need for the meds and being sensitive to some of the prescriptions, he worked with me until we found the right combo.

I always, after that, looked forward to meeting with him since I was proud of his persistence, kindness and patience with me.  I will so miss him.  RIP Dr. Clark.

Dr. Clark was always there for me and I got such good care from him and my stanford doctors. Sending my warmest condolences to his family and staff.    He will be missed.

He diagnosed my aortic root aneurysm, a large one, and sent me to Stanford where they fixed it.  He saved my life.

I can’t believe he is gone.

My brother Gary was lucky enough to have Dr. Clark as his Cardiologist, the 2 of them would chat about Gary's favorite football team, Dallas Cowboys and other sport related topics. Dr. Clark was so nice, his office environment was comfortable, his team wonderful! He was my brother's utmost favorite Doctor! I'm so sorry to hear of his passing! He will be missed by so, so many people!

Dr. Clark will be deeply missed. He was my cardiologist for the last two years, and I will forever be grateful for the exceptional care he provided. His dedication, compassion, and unwavering commitment to my well-being were truly remarkable. Dr. Clark was not only a skilled physician but also a kind and attentive listener who never gave up on my case. His decision to refer me to Stanford Medical Center proved invaluable, and my surgeon there commended his keen judgment. His passing is a great loss to all who knew him. My heartfelt condolences go out to his wife, family, and the staff who worked alongside him. May his legacy of care and kindness live on in the lives he touched.

My mother was Dr. Clark's patient for about 16 years until now. She will miss him dearly, as he was a very helpful and patient professional. She expressed that she was surprised to know of his passing, as she was scheduled for a next appointment with him. She is saddened that she won't be able to see him again. Our deepest condolences to his family.  We pray so that he may rest in peace.

Dr Clark will be missed by many in Monterey County. He was an incredible, inspirational doctor whom I thank everyday for helping me over the last 10 years. He referred me to Stanford for a heart transplant in 2023 which saved my life. He told me many stories of the team he was on that developed heart transplants at Stanford in the 1960’s. I’ll never will forget how he calmed my nerves by telling me not to worry that a heart transplant was like “changing a tire” on a car. I was thinking of that advice as they were wheeling me into the operating room.  Being a heart patient, I saw Dr Clark 6-8 times a year. He was always honest and kind. I appreciated his patience and persistence helping me throughout the most difficult moments of my life. Our last conversation morphed into his interest in the NFL. Seems he loved pro football. I will miss him dearly. May he rest in peace.
