Dr. Christina R Allen

I have never left a bad review for anything but I feel compelled to share my experience. My child tore her ACL and Dr. Allen came highly recommended. From the beginning Dr. Allen was difficult but I overlooked bedside manner for surgical skills. She was rude , dismissive and deferred everything to her staff. Although her underlings were capable it was clear that they were stressed and afraid. Recovery was not smooth and an infection occurred months afterwards and because Dr. Allen was not available it developed into a serious situation. Almost 2 years later my child still has pain and is limited in her activity despite physical therapy and a commitment to fitness. I would not recommend this surgeon to anyone.

Dr. Allen did the ACL reconstruction surgery on my left knee. All pre-op and post-op visits were great, she explained almost everything and also patiently answered all my questions and concerns, face to face or through my chart.

We trust Dr. Allen in her diagnostic and treatment assessments of our daughter's soccer-related injuries. She and her staff carefully assess the conditions presented and approach treatment conservatively, which we fully appreciate. She is very engaging, open to discussing issues and available for questions and concerns outside of scheduled appointments. We highly recommend her!

Dr. Allen is one of the finest physicians I've come across. Not only did she do a perfect ACL reconstruction on my 'older' non-athletically inclined knee (I was 55 at the time) but her level of follow up was amazing. She listens (really), she addresses every concern and has a great staff too. If you have a knee issue, this is absolutely the person to see.

Dr. Allen and her team were amazing. Very professional and personable, and incredibly responsive via phone and email. Dr. Allen really took the time to help me understand my treatment options and recovery process. She saw me through two surgeries and I wouldn't think of going to anyone else for orthopedic issues.

Dr. Allen is extraordinarily competent and confident. She earnest listened to my questions and concerns as well as educated me about the process. She goes above and beyond for her patients.

I had a good experience so far with Dr. Allen, she kept me up to date on procedures......was very caring and showed concern in my progress. Asked me to call anytime with questions. Called to see how I was doing....very good doctor.

Dr. Allen kept me well informed and at ease before, during, and after my knee surgery.

Dr Allen has performed three surgeries on my knee. (The frequency being reflective of me, definitely not reflective of her work) She has saved my employment 3 times now, as I have a physical job which requires me to be very mobile. If - heaven forbid - I need a 4th, Dr Allen will be who I want doing it. It's important to keep in mind, though, that she can only perform the surgery. After that the recovery is going to be in your own hands and will depend on how much work you put into rehab

The worst bedside manners, poor communication about treatment (was told I didn't need another brace but then was lectured when I didn't get it), long-wait times, and was told I would not recover (horrible experience as a patient). I heard she was one of the best and maybe I caught her on a REALLY bad day but lesson learned to ALWAYS CLARIFY treatment since now I am behind recovery. Also, be FAST about asking your questions since she will just leave you in the room when she is behind schedule.
