Dr. Allen is the best. She is the only one who actually diagnoses the
problem and comes up with a fix. She has helped me with all sorts of back issues and is willing to meet you where you are. The only downside is that it can take a while to get an appointment. But it’s definitely worth the wait. Excellent doctor. Highly recommend.
