Background: I’m a 25 year old, very active female who played lacrosse at the collegiate level and continues to run + hike long distances.I saw Dr. Allen for the first time a couple weeks ago, seeking a third opinion, after seeing a doctor in Santa Fe for inner knee pain. From the start he listened, explained the possibilities, and laid out the different paths I could take to resolve it. Within two weeks he was able to see me, perform the scope, and schedule a follow up appointment. He was extremely personable, knowledgeable, and truly cares about the success of his patients. I would HIGHLY recommend him.
