Testimonials

Look no further—go see Dr. Allen. He is, without a doubt, the best physician I have ever visited. Not only is he an outstanding ENT doctor, but he is also a true sinus specialist. After suffering from a sinus condition for many years and consulting numerous doctors, Dr. Allen was the one who finally resolved it for good. He conducted a careful and thorough examination, patiently explained my options, and outlined his recommendations. He answered all my questions, and I always felt genuinely cared for. Additionally, he has a great series of videos that are incredibly helpful.

Amazing surgeon, he is very professional and actually listens to his patients. I feel he goes out of his way to fully explain everything and listen to all of my concerns. I highly recommend him to everyone and will most definitely be back to see him if/when needed. Thank you Dr. Allen and your staff of kind, caring, and amazing people.

Dr. Allen is amazing! Both myself and my husband see him and he always takes his time with us, thoroughly explaining everything to us. And he doesn’t talk to us with his hand on the doorknob like so many docs do. We highly recommend him!

I traveled all of the way from California to see Dr. Allen. I’ve had multiple surgeries and have seen many ENTs before, and all to no luck in being able to diagnose what I was feeling and having surgeries that ultimately lead me back to the same issues.It wasn’t until I saw Dr Allen, I was able to send him my CT scans all the way from California and he diagnosed me with having mucosal circulation and large inferior turbinates.My surgery was a bilateral maxillary antrostomy and a bilateral inferior turbinoplasty. He said it was a fairly common procedure and wasn’t sure why the ENTs I’ve seen in the past had never addressed it. Dr Allen’s diagnostic was 100% correct and for the first time in my life, I can breathe easy, and I do not wake up with massive headaches every morning. It fixed a huge quality of life issue I was having for the past 15 years and I am so grateful of the outcome.Everyone on Dr Allen’s team was great, Crystal, the 2 nurses and the anesthesiologists all made the surgery very easy for me, especially since I was traveling from far away.There is one thing I’ve learned over the years seeing so many ENTs, and that is to absolutely do not take shortcuts choosing the right surgeon. There is 99% of ents out there who will sell you the highest profit margin procedure and then there is the 1% like Dr Allen, who are experts in the craft of rhinology. Learning how your surgeon operates is also important because it can be night and day for long term outcomes. Dr Allen is not a regular ent you will see down the street, he is a very unique and conscientious individual who is going to try his best to permanently address your nasal problems. I highly recommend visiting him if you are serious about your health.

Dr. Allen is a caring, compassionate doctor. He takes the time to listen to your concerns and answers all your questions in a manner that you can understand. I was referred to Dr. Allen after seeing another ENT for several years. Following consultation, Dr. Allen performed revision sinus surgery. After surgery my symptoms improved greatly. I’m able to breathe better, headaches have improved and the number of sinus infections has been greatly reduced. I would highly recommend Dr. Allen if you are having problems with your sinuses.

Awesome staff

Eddie Adams Via Google My Business

I came to Dr. Allen after seeing 2 other surgeons before. I was at my wits end and tired of fighting sinus infections and having sinus headaches. He performed 1 CT scan and found that all 4 of my sinus cavities were still blocked. He told me his goal was to have 1 surgery and fix everything in 1 session. It's been 2 months now and I feel better than I ever have. I love his entire staff. They are very personable and professional. Trust me when I say you will be making a wise decision by trusting Dr. Allen and his team of professionals.

Dr. Allen and his staff sincerely care about each of their patients and their conditions and recovery., This is such a comforting feeling as a patient. THANK DR. ALLEN AND STAFF

Dr. Allen and the rest of the team provide incredible care. He quickly diagnosed the issue during the first session and laid out the best treatment plan. My insurance decided last minute that the chosen surgery center was out of network, but Dr. Allen came to the rescue and was able to reschedule at a different location for the same day, which ultimately saved me thousands. He and Crystal, his medical assistant, are incredibly responsive, more so than any other doctor I’ve had. Great experience, and my nose works better than ever before.

Evan Biggers Via Google My Business

Dr. Allen is a great and very responsive physician. He guides you through the procedure, and he helps you with your recovery to make things very easy. I am breathing much better now, and no longer have to use addictive nasal sprays. His staff is very friendly helpful, and their new office is very nice! Highly recommended.

Jon Zodin Via Google My Business

Best first visit to a physician ever! Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Dr.Allen was empathetic and professional. I was given options to improve my diagnosis. Everyone went out of their way to ensure I was comfortable and informed. I would highly recommend Dr. Allen and his team.

Tom Jones Via Google My Business

Excellent Doctor, great attitude and very professional!! The pre, surgery and post surgeries went without any issues. Would recommend Doctor Allen for all ENT related issues!

Alvaro Jose Noboa Via Google My Business

Dr. Allen is thorough, patient and helpful. Not only does he take the time to answer the questions but also takes the time to explain the process and anticipated results. Excellent bedside manners at the clinic and at the hospital. Spent time after the surgery to ensure all was good to go and to see if there were any questions or concerns before leaving the hospital.In all, I wish I had Dr. Allen for my sinus surgery 10 years ago as he is heads and shoulders above the other doctor. Also, not to forget that his assistant, Crystal A., was just perfect to ensure you were at ease and comfortable during the visits. She is a great addition to team Allen.Could not be any happier with the results thus far. Looking forward to more positive results in the next few months.

Tristin Flowers Via Google My Business

Before meeting Dr. Allen I had visited two specialists in otolaryngology and I had never felt the empathy and confidence that both Dr. Allen and his entire team gave me. They explained to me in detail what I had and the surgery I had to do. I had never visited a doctor who had such a direct and explicit treatment with a patient, his whole team is extraordinary, From the person who attends at the front desk to his nurses, especially Crystal, she is undoubtedly the best! Thank you Crystal for helping me and making me feel at home, your professionalism and attention is unsurpassed! Don't hesitate to visit Dr. Allen, you won't regret it. He is the best ENT in Houston, now my nose is healthy thanks to him.Thank you again!

Roxana Gil Via Google My Business

Dr Allen is truly amazing. I’m not exaggerating when I say he’s the best ENT in Houston. I feel so blessed to have found him. My wife has been battling chronic nasal polyps for 6-7 years. They would always come back after every surgery because the 3 previous doctors weren’t able to get them all out. One doctor even suggested a highly invasive open surgery that would have scarred her face for life. Dr Allen was able to remove ALL the polyps laparoscopically the first time AND open up her sinuses to prevent the polyps from coming back. She has been polyp free for a year now for the first time in a long time. The previous doctors had us believe that this was going to be a lifelong ordeal for her but Dr Allen fixed her! Also, his office staff and MA are very friendly and helpful.

C J Via Google My Business

Dr. Allen saved my life (so to speak). Chronic sinusitis and allergies no longer an issue. Highly recommend.

stephen armstrong Via Google My Business

Dr. Allen is AMAZING! He listens, explains all options thoroughly, and I didn’t feel rushed or pressured into a procedure or unnecessary testing. Post surgery care was exceptional. His nurse Crystal is out of this world. I highly recommend Dr. Allen to anyone suffering with sinus related issues.

Holly Wenzl Via Google My Business

No one likes going to the dr. But I will say I absolutely don’t dread visits with Dr. Allen. After a very extensive sinus surgery that he completely nailed, he had an amazing bedside manner, and his follow-ups since have been highly informative and extremely comfortable. He’s been very thorough and has even recommended/prescribed medicines that have quite LITERALLY changed my quality of life. I’ve never felt like another body or file with him or his amazing assistant Crystal. I’ve followed him as he’s made moves and will continue to follow him wherever he goes. Oh, and by the way, his new office is extremely nice and very comfortable. It seems more like a hotel lounge than a doctor’s office. Super convenient to get to as well. He’s just a great doctor and great guy!!!

TJ Smith Via Google My Business

Dr. Shawn Allen is the best doctor I have ever had! He performed frontal sinus surgery on me. The care provided by Dr Allen and his staff was excellent. I personally have never met a doctor who is as compassionate and caring of his patients! If your having any sinus issues he is the doctor you want to see. I highly recommend Dr Allen to anyone who needs a Sinus doctor. He is the best with the most incredible staff!

Phil Via Google My Business

Efficient front office, helpful. Dr. Allen is a doctor who listens, explains, and explains well. His nurse, Crystal, is awesome!

Maria Milagros B. Quijano Via Google My Business

I’ve had allergy/sinus issues my whole life. I was that kid that got sent home from school for being “sick.” Later, in my early 20’s, there was an incident that resulted in a slightly visible crooked septum. I first went to Dr. Allen in 2018 after I’d been in Houston for about 4 years. Houston is notorious for being a place where if you hadn’t previously had allergies, you discover you do. My twice annual sinus infections became more frequent. They became more painful and harder to treat. I had never been to an ENT but I developed an infection that had survived multiple rounds of antibiotics. Dr. Allen showed me my scan and when I realized what he was pointing at, he said he could fix it. The bones I didn’t know I had in my nose had deformed and bulged to close off the sinus passages so the fluid from the infection was trapped. The surgery changed my life. It wasn’t a case of managing inflammation. It was a structural defect that prevented any drainage. I went from constantly sick, tired, drained of any drive to do anything back to the person I knew I was after the surgery. Fast forward a few years after everything had been ok, I started having some issues and Dr. Allen had moved back into my area. I knew something was different in my sinuses. I went back to Dr. Allen and he found a recirculation issue and he fixed it. Again, night and day, before and after. It doesn’t matter if you think you are doomed to a life of sinus pain and chronic infections. He can figure it out. He knows his stuff and I don’t trust easily. He’s earned my trust. And Crystal is the best assistant ever! Very attentive and ready to answer all your questions.

Sue West Via Google My Business

Dr. Allen is a higher standard of health care. He is a great surgeon and his bed-side manner is calm, positive, thorough and attentive. He is a compassionate and caring person who treats his patients with the utmost professionalism. He goes out of his way to make sure all your questions are answered. He's one of the best and I can't say enough about Dr. Allen's care.

Lena Saifi Via Google My Business

Dr. Shawn Allen is a game changer. He is up-to-date on the most current studies and treatments, and NOT stuck in his ways. He accomplished in one surgery what three other ENT physicians could not--OR would not--do in 4 previous surgeries. He completely opened my sinuses up and I have had the most comfortable year of my past 25 years because of what he did. THANK YOU, Dr. Allen.

Patty D Via Google My Business

Thank you! Doctor Allen. You took the time to listen to my chronic condition. I am very pleased with the surgery outcome and have a much better life quality now, thanks to you. Your MA Cristal is very kind and caring person too.

araceli ayala Via Google My Business

Dr. Allen is completely through, compassionate and one of the few doctors I have met who seem to see the patient as an individual rather than a chart. If you are looking for the highest level of professionalism and quality in your care, I highly recommend Dr. Allen. there are none better.
