Dr. Clark
Board Certified Dermatologist
Dr. Clark is a board certified dermatologist who has been serving her patients in the panhandle since 2016. She is a diplomate of the American Board of Dermatology and specializes in general adult, pediatric, cosmetic and surgical dermatology.
Graduating Summa Cum Laude from The University of Texas at San Antonio with a Bachelor of Science degree in Community Health, Dr. Jessica Clark received her medical degree with honors from Texas A&M in 2008 and received the distinction of AOA.
Prior to moving to the panhandle, Dr. Clark was an academic dermatologist at Tulane University. During her tenure at Tulane she was involved in clinical trials with chronic skin conditions such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and cutaneous T cell lymphoma. She was an attending physician at several clinics teaching dermatology residents and students while taking care of patients. She was also the supervisor of the resident cosmetic clinic teaching dermatology residents neurotoxins, advanced filler techniques, and a wide range of lasers. She continues to attend and teach lectures on advanced aesthetic dermatology techniques.
Dr. Clark enjoys taking care of the whole family. Prevention is key for some skin conditions and she firmly believes in taking care of your skin with regular self checks as well as in office skin exams. She offers a variety of options for surgical procedures including skin cancers and works closely with a board certified plastic surgeon for those patients concerned about appearance of the scar.
Dr. Clark is lucky to have most of her family here in Panama City Beach. She participates in local events and annual free skin cancer screenings in the community.
Patient Testimonials
I’ve been seeing Dr. Clark for over 5 years, and she caught two different issues that could have been very serious. Her skill, kindness and patience make her the perfect choice for anyone, especially those with doctor anxiety. I’ve referred so many friends to her, and every one of them feels the same way. She listens to you, really explains everything, and genuinely cares about finding the root cause of your issue. I brought my kindergarten-aged son to see her, and she was fantastic with him and made him feel so at ease, explaining every step of his treatment. Dr. Clark is a gem!
As someone who spent decades sunbathing before we knew the risks, I’ve had my share of skin cancers. Dr. Clark has been a lifesaver in managing my basal and squamous cell issues. She catches problem spots early, and I trust her completely with my care. Her experience and knowledge of sun damage are top notch!
I’ve been seeing a dermatologist regularly for years, but after switching to Dr. Clark, I was impressed by her attention to detail. During my first visit with her, she immediately identified a suspicious spot on my skin that had been missed by others, which turned out to be melanoma. Thanks to her prompt action, I had a successful surgery and am now cancer-free. She also helped me with a bothersome skin issue that I’d struggled with for years, and didn’t quit till we had it controlled. We grateful for her expertise and care!
I’ve been seeing Dr. Clark for 5-6 years now, and I have always been very satisfied with her care. I appreciate how efficient her office is — I’m always in and out quickly, without sacrificing quality care. The office is always spotless, and Dr. Clark is thorough and professional. She takes the time to explain everything. I highly recommend Beach Dermatology.
Great staff! Kim, the receptionist is so pleasant and helpful. I had stopped in a couple of weeks ago and she set an appointment for me. The office is very upscale and comfortable. Tracy, the nurse was very nice too and did a complete interview with me. Dr. Clark then came in and I liked her personality too. She was so thorough and used a magnifying glass to find all of the "birthday presents" I receive as I age. Thank goodness they are not a threat! I am so happy to have found a great physician and staff. They make an awesome team!!! Thank you so much.
Lisa Garrison is the best aesthetician I have ever had! She explained all of the procedure before she did it. She was gentle and very personable. She even called me the next day to check on me and answer my questions. She is a valuable asset to your practice. She made me comfortable and allayed all my fears about the procedure. I had a micro needling done perfectly
Dr Jessica Clark and her entire staff provided excellent care, displayed professionalism, and were congenial and pleasant. My patient experience was by far superior, compared to my experiences with other dermatologists in the area.
Everyone was very friendly, and cordial. Dr. Clark was extremely thorough with my exam, and was very informative. Loved the visit!
I visited the Panama City Beach location with Dr. Jessica Clark. I cannot begin to say how much I appreciate them. Dr. Clark and her staff are welcoming, informative and made my visit stress free. I would very much recommend them.
