I'm 77 yrs old Retired from military Active Duty & have seen LOTS of doc's of varying specialties in LOTS of places. Allred is EXCELLENT.
Dr. Allred and his staff were all amazing! They were all very welcoming and down to earth. I wish every doctor appointment was like this! They were absolutely the best! Dr. Allred bedside manners were 10/10! He was so nice and explained everything that he was doing and made sure I was comfortable.
He was super nice and fun to talk!
Dr. Allred was very professional and friendly. He explained the procedure very well.
Dr Allred was attentive and very polite.
Buen servicio amable y eficaz
extremely polite
Excellent experience with a knowledgeable and considerate doctor
I feel extremely validated! I am so so grateful to Dr. Allred and Dr. Woodworth, who not only took their time to listen but actually took their time and evaluated me to make sure the test was done properly and accurately. For the last 2.5years, these symptoms have been bothering me, and I kept being dismissed by other providers and being told it was all "in my head." While the results were not what I had hoped for, I am truly grateful to now have scientific evidence and be able to prove to my primary providers, and even family that there was and is something wrong with my nerves. I wish I would have been listened to in the past, so it didn't have to get this severe, and perhaps it could have been caught in time to slow the process of the nerve damage. Anyhow, I am very pleased with the level of professionalism from both doctors and to receive their honest opinions. Thank you!
Friendly, very knowledgeable and explained everything clearly and answered all our questions and concerns.

I would not recommend Dr. Derrick Allred. He made me feel my procedure was putting him out and his comments during the procedure were unsettling. And I quote he said " all my afternoon patients are coming at once, everyone wants the procedure, I can't wait for the procedure to be done". He obviously doesnt care about patients and should be elsewhere. I hope I'm never REFERRED to him again. And he didn't even do the procedure, he was in the room for part of it while being done by a very new and unsure resident.
Dr. Allred is very gentle and concerned for the comfort of the patient. He does a great job explaining things.
Dr. Allred is professional, compassionate caregiver.
He is very knowledgeable
Es muy amable y a tentó con el pariente Ase sentir que su le interesa la persona
Wonderful experience. Very patient, knowledgeable, and caring.
He is polite and kind. A rare treat
If I ever needed to be "zapped" again I'll plan on asking for Dr. Allred
I really appreciate Dr Allred and his staff for working so tirelessly with me for nearly a year to improve my quality of life. Dr Allred is exceptional at active listening and making assessments with his patients input. He is willing to include other specialities into the treatment mix and isn't afraid to acknowledge what he doesn't know. I appreciate his kindness, respect, and patience the most. I have never felt more heard with a doctor in my 40 years of treatment. It is rare to find a doctor like Dr Allred. He is very deserving of his position, and my entire family appreciates his care and concern for me and my unique case. Plus, I always leave happier after an appointment than when I came in. 100 stars!
Greatest personality ever. Very professional!
Thanks for making it tolerable!
He was very helpful and kind. He took the time to explain everything to me. I felt good about the visit.
Dr Allred listens intently and ensures he understands. You are not treated as a number or a rushed time block, he takes the time needed to adequately assess you.
Dr. Allred is a very knowledgeable and proficient physician I am very greatful to have been referred to him and his team.

Thank you, we cleared somethings up and we both have a better understanding of what is wrong.
Dr Allred was very warm and friendly. He listened carefully without judgement. He made sure that I did'nt feel rushed . I felt very good about the care I will have with him and his colleagues.
Excellent Physician and provider!
Great experience considering this was not the most pleasant procedure. Dr. Allred was fast efficient and kind.
This was my second time seeing both Dr. Derrick Allred & Dr. Tyler Woodworth. They also had another resident during my appointment. All three were extremely professional and kind. I appreciate the time they take to make sure tests are run accurately. While I don't enjoy the testing, they always make me feel comfortable, and aim to minimize as much pain as possible. Dr. Allred is also an excellent teacher for his residents.
