“Best! I’ve seen a handful of Doctors for a long time. My Psychiatrist left his last job and I was searching for someone who could help with my RX refills. I initially planned on trying Allen once then finding where my Psychiatrist went. After my first appointment with him I decided to hold off. He’s super down to earth. Really listened to all my concerns and made me feel at ease. He also has a secretary you can text anytime. That’s also a huge plus! My last Dr at Clarity Clinic I had to email them and then he would get back to me. It took forever and wasn’t super comfortable having someone else read my emails to him. If you’re looking for a super great and reliable Dr Allen is your dude!! He also does only zoom which is soooooo perfect for these types of appointments. Thanks Allen and your Secretary! She is so patient, sweet and understanding. ”
