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.

I have been seeing Dr. Allis for over 20 years. The is the most wonderful doctor. I can't say enough wonderful things about her. She is calm and so knowledgeable. She completely solved my problem and has been monitoring me since. I wish more physicians were like her. I highly recommend her.

Went to Dr. Allis because of two weeks of burning headaches. After thinking the worst and fearing what the pain was indicating, within 20 minutes my blood pressure dropped 40 points and my headaches felt better with her CARE and explanation of the possible (not life threatening causes) of the pain! Cannot thank you enough for easing my pain and for CARING for me during a stressful time, You are a true example and I will recommend you to anyone who can use your care,understanding and expertise!

I find Dr Allis to be thorough, knowledgeable and extremely compassionate. I have multiple herniated disks and she has steered me to treatments with caution and wisdom. My son has had migraines since he was young and experienced seizures in high school. She applied the same calm, patient care to him.

HORRIBLE DR!!!! SAW HER FOR A YEAR, GAVE ME PRESCRIPTIONS THAT HELPED MY PROBLEM TREMENDOUSLY AND I HAD AN APPOINTMENT AND HER RECEPTIONIST CALLED AND SAID WE CANCELLED IT AND SHE WON'T BE SEEING YOU ANYMORE. DIDN'T EVEN HAVE THE DECENCY TO CALL ME HERSELF. SHE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT HER PATIENTS. SHE IS A DISGRACE TO DOCTORS!!!

Dr. Allis is by far the most caring, thoughtful, and proactive Doctor I've ever seen. She spend time with her patients and is great at listening between the lines. She helped me sort through my symptoms after I was in a very bad car accident and gave me the treatment I needed to feel like myself again. She's very honest, explains things, and helps you manage your emotions during the healing process. She is honestly phenomenal I would trust her with my life.
