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.

Many years of experience!
Dr. Allen comes across as a little dry on some days, and he can be comical on other days, but what's important to me is his experience. I would rather have an experienced doctor who doesn't talk much than to have a comedian doing his first surgery. He performed my surgery, which was a minimally invasive, laparoscopic, total hysterectomy, with fallopian tubes and ovaries, and I was confident that I was in good hands because he has done hundreds, if not thousands of these surgeries throughout his career. He also smells really good because his wife picks his cologne. I definitely recommend him.

Did not introduce himself, I was clearly very very nervous about getting the IUD and he did not care just wanted to get in and get out. [...]

Doesn't care about your pain
Expressed that I had pain during sex. All he did was the normal exam and said I'm fine. I asked what needs to happen so that I don't have pain during sex. Again, he said "I examed you. You're fine." Clearly I am not fine!
