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.

The BEST!!!!
I’ve been to several podiatry offices over the years and couldn’t find anyone to treat me. I wish I found Dr Allen back then. I had pain for years that he treated with a 15 min surgical procedure. He’s absolutely the BEST!!!

Who's the Doctor?
On my first of 3 visits with him, he showed great concern after viewing my x-rays and scheduled an MRI. By my third visit he finally suggested a boot (should have been done on 1st visit) and when I asked questions about my situation his response was, 'Well, we'll do whatever you want to do' - leaving ME greatly concerned with my decision in choosing him. This response caught me totally off guard and pushed me to find another Dr for a second opinion.

I went to Dr. Allen in October 2017 thinking I had broken it. He told me it was something else for 3 months before he did an MRI and found it was fractured. Examined my foot one time (first visit) and never looked at it again. Wore a boot for months then a brace. Released me when my foot was 90-95% better. I told him I was still having pain. My foot is still fractured. Now I'm going somewhere else for a 2nd opinion. Make sure you pay and keep all receipts from your visits. They overcharge!

I couldn't have had a better experience! Dr. Allen was very thorough in his examination and the two surgeries I had were wonderful. He operated on each foot and the results have made a huge difference in my comfort in walking. I wouldn't go to anyone else!

The only reason I went to see Dr. Allen is that I had a wart on my toe. He had my feet x-rayed and fitted for orthotics? Then after his whole talk with me about my feet, I finally was able to get him to explain the real reason I was there, the wart on my toe. He acted like it was no big deal. He treated me 5 different times. The wart would not go away. I felt like he just wanted the return customer more than really helping me. I went to a dermatologist. He froze it off in one visit. Gone.
