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.

Lumbar epidural injection
Dr Allen was very nice!!! When I first got to the SURGI CENTER ( hugheston orthopedic) NASHVILLE,tn I was nervous a little, but when he (dr.Allen)came in and talked with me, I was ok then!! He explained everything, and was caring AND the procedure was not bad at all with no sedation! The nurses were nice too!

Dr Forrest Allen is excellent physician. Yet, dealing with Marina (office) on very important procedure was rock-bottom. i was given her name as main contact and left several voice mails over 2 weeks for much needed assistance and no callback. Frustrating!
