Dr. Valerie Allen truly embodies what compassionate care should look like. She took the time to explain things clearly and made me feel heard and unrushed. Her ability to break down topics into understandable language shows not just expertise, but empathy. Her bedside manner isn't just excellent-it's rare and deeply appreciated.

This was my first time meeting Dr. Allen, and my first time ever at a gynecologist in general. She was SOOO lovely and kind and made it obvious that she prioritized patient centered care. Her decision to not even have patients in the gowns when she meets them goes so much further than providers realize. And its clear that she heavily cares about patient autonomy. I felt very heard at my appointment with her, and she was also able to break down information to me in a very digestible way. The MA who I met first who took my vitals was also very kind and welcoming, I unfortunately just dont remember her name. But I have no complaints about the people who ran my appointment this day, I was very pleasantly surprised with how not scary it was.

I can't say enough amazing things about Dr. Allen. I have moved several times and have switched doctors for pregnancies due to proximity; but will still make the 45 minute drive to see her for her expertise, kindness, and exceptional bedside manner. She makes me feel heard, is always thorough and helps navigate difficult diagnoses.
