Dr. Abigail was very nice, she kept contact with the patient when was asking question while the physical exam. For many years no one explained to me what happens to my child, she was the first to name it. Thank you for that! Now we know how to proceed. Much appreciated!

My son and I liked her, but the wait was way too long. She was apologetic for the wait, so I would give her another chance.

Dr Allen was very thorough and responsive. I liked that she was not an alarmist and did not want to immediately send my daughter for unnecessary tests. She listened to my daughter, she asked follow up questions and she made sure to answer questions that I had as well. I would highly recommend her.

Absolutely wonderful experience: outstanding bedside manner, friendly, professional, reassuring. Went out of her way to identify with my son as a patient and athlete. From the first minutes of the visit (our first) we felt like we had known her for years.
It would be impossible to recommend her more highly.

I highly recommend Dr. Allen for your children. She is very compassionate, patient , nice , and an excellent doctor. My 3 yr old daughter was freaking out and crying a lot when she realize she was at doctor office as she has white coat syndrome but Dr. Allen made her so comfortable and she diagnose and treated her condition in such a pleasant manner that my daughter gave her a big hug and was so happy .
I am so thankful to Dr. Allen for the care

My son has seen Dr. Allen before this appointment. What I admire, as well as my son, about Dr. Allen is she is intentional about the welfare of her patients. In addition, she is equally interested in what my son’s thoughts about his condition in order to determine the right treatment.

July 26, 2022Bryan H.Verified patient
Dr Allen is fantastic. She dealt with my son a few years back for a horrific arm break and I was thrilled to see her again for another issue. She is no nonsense doctor. Says it how it is. Such a nice person and amazing at her job.

Dr. Allen is great! She was quick and thorough and very kind. My 16 yo loves her. I hope we don’t need to see an orthopedist again, but if we do, we would always come back to see her.

June 15, 2021Chloe M.Verified patient
Great bedside manner with my 5yo child. Excellent energy and provided clear suggestions.
Although waiting area on floor was well organized for social distancing, it was more crowded than I would have preferred, especially with a young child. The team was very good to create a separate place for her.

Disappointed. Doctor was friendly but did not seem to take my daughter's dislocated shoulder very seriously, so we wasted time getting physical therapy. Eventually we had to go to another physician. The office was not responsive when called repeatedly regarding miscodings which led to headaches with insurance company.

Dr. Allen is a very professional and friendly doctor. Cares to make sure the patients understand what is going on and is patient in explaining the issues and plan of action
