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.

Dr. Allred and his staff at the Columbia Basin hospital and family medicine clinic are truly terrific. They've been so helpful, understanding and patient with us during our parent's hang struggles lately. I feel we're all treated extremely well and I highly encourage others to trust in his care.

I know he is a bit rough around the edges for some, but I personally like that as I know he is going to give me answers that I may not like to hear. He focuses a lot of diet and exercise for solving health issues, with a general distain for using drugs to solve problems. I really appreciate his candor and I like him as my family doctor.

Someone said he's "not very good".. I'd say that he's without a doubt the WORST doctor ever. I have a long medical history with multiple surgeries, but he didn't listen to a word I said, just labeled me as a drug seeker. He says that there's "nothing wrong" with me. Now, no doctor in this area will even see me, so I'm left with constant, intense pain with no relief. I will never understand why other doctors around here think he's a god. He is HORRIBLE.

Went to him about injuries received on my job. I have MRI showing tears in shoulder and knee. He said go back to work, there is nothing wrong. He was rude, rough and basically mean. He wouldnt listen to anything I said nor answer any questtions. He is beyond a doubt the worst i have been too ever. I am still looking for an Attending Physician for my case

I'm a new patient. I have extensive back issues with a long history. Allred didn't even look past my name and assumed he knew all about. I told him I have used 5 ultram a day for years. All he heard was addict. Now I'm treated like a drug seeker and a criminal. I went to Allred because I bought a house here in Ephrata from Desert Aire. I have never been treated like this. I have severe chronic pain and prone to in predictable spasms and suffer continued pain. Allred isn't very good.
