Clinical Biography

Dr. Irish-Clardy grew up in Costa Rica. She came to the United States for her last year of high school, later earning her undergraduate degree from Russell Sage College in Troy, N.Y. She returned to Costa Rica after college and obtained her doctorate of medicine from the University of Costa Rica Medical School.

Being fluent in Spanish, she worked for four years at Sparks La Clinica Del Pueblo in Fort Smith, serving the Hispanic population in Fort Smith and the surrounding area. During that time, she was part-time faculty at UAMS West. In 2005, she joined the faculty full-time.

Dr. Irish became the Program Director in December 2014. She completed the AFMRD National Institute of Program Director Development (NIPDD) Fellowship in March, 2017.

She continues to see patients in clinic, along with her duties as faculty. Dr. lrish-Clardy also maintains a close relationship with our affiliated hospital, Baptist Health-Fort Smith, serving on several hospital committees.

As a mother, I like it when they check the children well, that they don't just say it's normal, it's going to go away or because they see it on their face and they say it's fine, they should examine more about what the mother He mentions them about his son, thank you, do tests to see if they are well inside and outside. And when they weigh children if they could put a digital scale for children from newborn to 1 year
