3 years ago, my audiologist highly recommended Dr. Allen for my CIs. I was deaf in one ear & had NORMAL low-tones-only residual hearing in my other ear. Audi promised me much better hearing, clarity in voices, & better hearing at music. Dr. Allen warned me before 1st CI that I could lose my hearing & music, but I had nothing to lose in my deaf ear. 1st CI greatly complimented my good, normal low-tones-only residual hearing in other ear. However, I did not receive same warning nor did Dr. Allen follow up with audiologist to protect this good, normal low-tones-only residual hearing in other ear. After 2nd CI, I am now deaf in that “good” ear, can no longer hear music, & ALL sounds are horribly distorted - permanently. I can no longer lipread like I used to either. Dr.Allen should have warned me before 2nd CI like he did with 1st CI or simply refuse to do 2nd CI. I lost a huge part of my quality of life.

The audiology exam was professional and appropriately targeted the referral question. My ENT, Dr. Allen, superbly listened to my presenting symptoms, thoroughly presented a number of treatment options with each of their pros and cons, and together we selected the option that was most fitting. I could not be more pleased with the services provided. I give TBH&BC and Dr. Allen my highest endorsement.

A great experience! Very clean office and a professional staff. Dr. Allen took the time to listen to my concerns. He explained why it was happening and gave me several options to consider. After reviewing pros and cons, he suggested the best treatment for my particular case. I left my appointment feeling thankful and optimist. Thank you!!!

I saw Dr Allen for the first time November 2018 for a tumor in my ear canal, better known as Vestibular Swannoma. He's a wonderful doctor, has a great bedside manner & listens to his patients ! The office staff are just as wonderful & would recommend this practice to anyone for ear or hearing problems.

I have been going to Dr.Allen for a year & half. I wasn’t getting better & went back to see him a few times. He gave me different diagnoses none of them helped ! I have lost over 2 years of living & still can’t drive ! Go to the UF in Gainsville ! Don’t waste your time & money with this doctor !!

Dr. Allen is the best. Spends a great time to make sure all patients questions are answered. Thoroughly explains conditions, etc. Good at getting Rx refilled. Highly skilled skull based surgeon and high specialization. Would highly recommend.

Dr. Allen and the staff at Tampa Bay Hearing and Balance Center are outstanding. They got me in the same day, spent a lot of time with me, were patient and interested in my health, diagnosed my condition and gave me a good idea of how my recovery would proceed (I had Vestibular Neuritis). I saw Dr. Allen and a physical therapist and another person and all were very capable and nice. A wonderful change from typical health care. Thank you Dr. Allen and everyone at your Center.
