Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Good listener. Good diagnosis.

I worked with Dr Allen as a wound and ostomy nurse for 12 years at Mills Peninsula Medical Center. He is kind, caring, compassionate and exceptionally skilled in surgical technique and makes the best perky stomas. You all have a real gem at your facility now. I miss him very much???? I wish him well??

Dr Allen performed my surgery to treat my Diverticulitis in 2014 after many bouts of it and many hospital stays. I am now 4 1/2 years symptom free. I even have a photo of my excised section of sigmoid colon.
