How likely are you to recommend Dr. Clarkson?
Dr Clarkson treated my mother’s breast cancer. She thought the world of him. She went to him when initially diagnosed and it went into remission for over 10 years. He moved away for a few years and she had to see someone else who would not listen to her about thinking something was wrong about not feeling well and would not run required tests. it was put down to muscle soreness or something like that. She saw that Dr multiple times about it and other non oncologists about it to no avail. So when Clarkson moved back she went to him, and he ran the appropriate tests and found out that her cancer had come back as stage 4. He treated her until she passed away about 5 yrs later. Everyone in the office treated her and my dad with kindness and respect. She might still be with us if the other doctor had bothered to do the appropriate tests.
