                      Merit Health Medical Group Adds Physician to Vicksburg Clinic

                      10/10/2017

                      ClarkMerit Health Medical Group recently welcomed surgeon Christopher Clark, DO to the medical staff. Dr. Clark will practice at the Merit Health Medical Group clinic located at 2100 Highway 61 North in Vicksburg.

                      Dr. Clark specializes in minimally invasive general and thoracic surgery. He routinely performs colon, gastric, small bowel, complex para-esophageal and abdominal hernias and problem gynecology in the abdomen laparoscopically or robotically from small port incisions. His procedures involving minimally invasive diagnostics and treatment of lung cancer include lung resections, lymph node dissections, chest wall reconstruction and removal of the lung cancer through small port incisions.

                      Dr. Clark serves as a national robotic surgery trainer, preceptor and proctor for surgeons throughout the country. Dr. Clark is also a member of the teaching faculty for three medical schools and is involved daily with the training of students, residents and physician assistants.

                      Dr. Clark is a native of Madden, Miss. After graduating high school from Leake Academy, he spent ten years in the U.S. Army in Special Operations as a team sergeant, Active and Reserve, as well as a paratrooper. He received his medical education from the Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences in Tulsa, Okla. Dr. Clark received his core hospital training from Integris Southwest Medical Center in Oklahoma City, where he performed rotations in internal medicine, nephrology, obstetrics and gynecology and general surgery. He also performed elective rotations in obstetrics, gynecology and plastic surgery at five additional facilities.

                      Dr. Clark completed his medical residency at William Beaumont General Hospital’s Botsford campus in Farmington Hills, Mich., a 400-bed Level II trauma center. He has extensive experience in endoscopy, vascular, endocrine, pediatrics, breast, gynecology, colon surgery, skin and wound surgery as well as extensive trauma and critical care training and experience at Level II and Level I facilities.

                      Dr. Clark comes to Merit Health Medical Group from Wayne Memorial Hospital in Goldsboro, N.C. Prior to that he was in private practice with The Surgery Clinic, LLC in Gadsden, Ala. Dr. Clark is committed to the patients of the Vicksburg area and he and his wife look forward to being an active part of the community.

                      For more information, call (601) 883-6300.
