Dr. Clark attended public school at Worthington and the Iron City Business College at Pittsburgh, being graduated from the latter institution in 1889. He then devoted himself to the study of medicine, and with this end in view entered the Western University of Pittsburgh, graduating therefrom in 1896, following which he established himself in practice at Worthington. Later he took a special course at the Polyclinic in New York City, graduating in 1904. He belongs to the Armstrong County Medical Society and to the Pennsylvania State Medical Society. At present he is serving as trustee of the Presbyterian Church in which he holds membership.
In 1896 Dr. Clark was united in marriage with Floda M. Reed, daughter of Hamilton Reed, of Armstrong county. Dr. Clark has built up a large practice at Worthington and firmly established himself in the confidence of his patients.
