"I had surgery (by another doctor) to repair the "gasket" between my stomach and esophagus because acid had leaked into my esophagus and had burned a spot which leads to cancer. I got the impression that the surgery hadn't worked so Dr. Allen did an endoscopy. He said the surgery was a failure and the gap was "wide open". That meant that I could look forward to esophageal cancer, which is deadly. It turns out that he was 100% WRONG. I got a barium swallow test and there was zero leakage. Thanks to Dr. Allen, I had to worry about cancer for a couple of months."

"A few years ago I had an operation to close the hole between my stomach and esophagus (called a Nissan Fundoplication). Acid was leaking up and put me at a risk of esophageal cancer. I got the feeling that the surgery didn't work and so Dr. Allen did an endoscopy. He told me that the surgery didn't work and the hole was "wide open". This kind of surgery can't be redone. I thought I was doomed, so I saw yet another doctor who had me get a barium swallow to actually test the surgery. I didn't have a hole at all!!!!!!!!!! The surgery worked perfectly. Dr. Allen was 100% WRONG and it caused me a lot of distress. He gets paid thousands of dollars for this kind of incompetence!!!!!!!!!! "
