Most important and professional to me was that I was treated like I mattered as much as the professional athletes he has treated. I say that because HSS is know worldwide for big name sports stars. Dr. Allen was affable and smart. I felt like I was in competent hands. He gave me a thorough exam, outlined the procedure and sent me to get authorized by an HSS doctor for my general health. I was approved and scheduled for the procedure in a timely manner. His staff was kind and proficient. Dr. Allen came to see me before the pr... read more
He did my ACL. No issues healed nicely. He’s professional and explained the procedure. His staff is great, helped we get setup with imaging, therapy, and called to check up afterwards.
Dr. Allen did arthroscopic surgery to repair my torn rotator cuff and clear up some arthritis in the shoulder of my dominant arm back in 2004. He told me at the time he couldn't promise the arthritis wouldn't return over time, and 17 years later I do get a twinge now and then, but other than that I've gone about my frequently athletic activities, including equestrian ones (lifting hay bales, vigorously grooming all the various angles on big horses, and heaving saddles to and fro, for example). Have never even given the shoul... read more
Avoid this physician at all costs, I had an ACL construction that he botched. As a result I have had 5 corrective procedures to undo the damage he did during his initial procedure. He was extremely unprofessional and told me the cause of my issues post surgery were a result of "tight hamstrings" turns out he had drilled the screw too far into the knee causing even more damage. I'll avoid the gory details but he is lazy and upon questioning him about the issues he became evasive. He ignored issues I brought up that were signs... read more
DR ALLEN, DID AN A/C JOINT REDUCTION, ON MY SEPARATED SHOULDER. HE DID SUCH A GOOD JOB, THAT I FORGET WHICH SHOULDER HE DID !! GOING TO SEE HIM FOR KNEE REPLACEMENTS...
Dr. Allen repaired my ACL and I have returned to my normal exercise routine. His office staff is professional and curteous. Very little wait time. Each post operative appointment, I have seen Dr. Allen and he answered all of my questions.
I had a very difficult repair to my shoulder. I’m perfect since he fixed me. Just had my 2nd surgery with him
My experience with Dr Allen was outstanding, I have recommended him to my friends and family. I now need an orthopedic for a new condition, I will be making it with Dr. Allen.
He repaired both my distal bicep ruptures 7 years apart. Both were complicated and the second had to be shorter. I am now 53 and lifting 90lb dumbells on incline pess etc.. I am more fit then before my surgery's! He is the best. I am a former college baseball pitcher and club football & basketball player. I am just glad o got lucky and found him!
