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 was terrified to learn I had breast cancer! But Dr. Allen put me at ease; reassured me we could deal with this. She heard my concerns and considered my needs in the decision process. She allowed me to be part of the surgical decisions as well as radiation afterwards. I've had no issues with the surgery; and her guidance for after care has been wonderful. She is compassionate as well as competent! Cold hands, warm heart - that's Dr. Allen. If you can get her to care for you, do so! Thank you again, Dr. Allen

I am horrified of Dr. Allen. She performed a mastectomy on me 3 weeks ago, the wound immediately started disintegrating before I left the hospital.Her staff was not impressed but sent me to visiting nurses to treat the wound. I have not seen or heard from Dr Allen since the surgery 3 weeks ago. now visiting nurses suggested Wound Clinic as the area has totally disintergrated. Wonder if I'l get any follow up care for my cancer.

I am so glad i chose Dr. Allen for my surgeon. I had breast cancer and was scared to death. I could not even look at it for 4 day's and when i did i was shocked it actually looked better than my other breast other than bruising,scar and swelling the swelling and bruising went away after 3 weeks. I have been using vitamin E oil and lavender oil on scar and it is 60% better after 7 weeks. Listen to what Dr. Allen tells you she is a awesome surgeon and artist. I saw several other surgeons for more consult's and am so fortunate i found her. My right breast after partial mastectomy and 5 lymph nodes removed looks better than before and my left breast. Thank You Dr. Allen Vena Premru in Palm Harbor,Fl-Oct.31, 2019
