Dr. Clark is originally from western Pennsylvania and obtained her undergraduate degree from the University of Pittsburgh where she graduated summa cum laude and was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. She then received her medical degree from the Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine where she established a medical student-run free clinic in Tyrone, Pennsylvania and was elected to Alpha Omega Alpha. She subsequently completed residency training in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery at Georgetown University and was awarded several teaching awards for excellence in medical student education. As a resident, she developed a quality improvement initiative geared towards augmenting knowledge of and comfort with caring for patients with surgical airways among physicians in Anesthesiology, Internal Medicine, and Emergency Medicine. Following residency, she completed a two-year fellowship in Laryngology at ÈÕ±¾avÉ«ÇéƬ’s Sean Parker Institute for the Voice during which she concurrently obtained a master’s degree in Clinical and Translational Science at ÈÕ±¾avÉ«ÇéƬ.

Dr. Clark pursued Laryngology because it afforded the opportunity to address basic functions (swallowing, voice, and breathing) that are tantamount to the human experience and have tangible impacts on patients’ quality of life. Her clinical expertise is in the evaluation and treatment of swallowing, voice, and airway disorders.

Her research interests include chronic cough, laryngeal hypersensitivity, and benign phonotraumatic vocal fold lesions.

She is dedicated to providing evidence-driven, compassionate care to each patient.
