welcome to the family
Clark Family Medicine is excited to provide Direct Primary Care to the Pocatello, Idaho area. We care deeply about helping people, but found that the traditional models of healthcare don't do that. The purpose of my practice is to be there for patients when they are sick, but also to improve their health and well-being long-term.
​
We provide better, more affordable medical care while cultivating personal relationships with our patients and devoting time to their individual needs. By doing so, patients will enjoy a more fulfilling lifestyle.

My Story
2012
Medical School
Doctor of Osteopathy
I attended Touro University Nevada College of Osteopathic Medicine. People often get confused that I am a doctor of osteopathy (DO) and not an MD. A DO can become any specialty of physician there is. The philosophy of osteopathy enhances a primary care physicians skills because it focuses on the patient as a whole. My education was truly focused on creating lasting relationships with my patients and creating a passion for preventative healthcare.
2015
Graduated ISU
Family Residency
I graduated from ISU Family Medicine Residency in Pocatello, ID where I had a comprehensive full spectrum family medicine education that only enhanced my passion for creating health and long-term well-being for my patients. I served as chief resident during my third year of residency.
2023
Clark Family Medicine
Direct Primary Care
During my years in traditional medicine, I have served on various committees and truly tried to advocate for improved patient care. I have found that because of the way our current medical system works, there are so many administrative tasks to complete which adds to overhead and takes away from the patient. I have continued to grow my knowledge in all areas of medicine. I specifically find myself enjoying helping people find wellness in different stages of their lives.
