I would totally recommend Dr. Allen. We were struggling to conceive. Dr. Allen took the time and ran all the necessary test. Now we have 2 perfect boys.
Dr. Allen and his staff rock. They are there for anything I need. As for the wait time, I understand because most of the time he is with another patient who is in labor or might be needing an emergency c-section. Its good to know cause I know he'll be there when I need him too. I plan my appointments accordingly making sure i'm not needed somewhere asap. I highly recommend Dr. Allen and his staff.
I had a partial robotic hysterectomy through Dr. Allen. I was eager to have the procedure and was told that the recovery time was minimal and that I would resume normal activities in no time. The procedure typically lasts 2 hours so my husband was very concerned when my 2 hour surgery ended 6 hours later. No one told him what was going on. What had happened was that Dr. Allen knicked my bladder during surgery, he thinks while removing my uterus. Was not aware prior to surgery, but apparently, it is very common for the surgeon to knick the bladder during this procedure. He sewed up the bladder and in doing so, he damaged some other parts inside of my body including the ureter. I had to wear a catheter for two and a half weeks which led to UTI and other discomforts. Not to mention the bloating I experienced for days from all of the gas they pump inside of you for this robotic surgery. So, fast forward. Just had an outpatient surgery with a Urologist to put in a stent to help some of the healing from Dr. Allen's handy work. During this outpatient surgery, the Urologist found that Dr. Allen had wrapped stitches around my ureter. The ureter is the tube that connects the kidney to the bladder. My kidney function is not 100% with the stitch around my ureter. So now I have to have MAJOR surgery to fix that. Total time out of work -- approximately 3 months. I had not prepared for any of this and furthermore, I am responsible for paying for all of this -- yes, I have insurance but the co-pays, medication, seeing specialists is overwhelming. He said this hasn't happened in 5 years. OK, I buy that but I am the statistic and want to let you know my experience.
I've been seeing Dr. Allen since I was 19 and I'm now in my 30s. He delivered my first child. He is absolutely wonderful but his current staff lineup could use some help in the friendliness department.
He delivered my last 2 children. Love the staff. Been going to see him for years. Excellent
Long wait times, disorganized staff, one of the nurses is abrasive, difficult to get an appointment if that nurse answers. The doctor is ok, although he seems to rush through visit.
Never got my results back. 30 to 45 minutes waiting time for my appointment.
I just wanted to say he is awesome doctor, i had my kids back in-2004-2006 want to says keep up good work,,
