BEWARE
DR MARK ALLAN did 2 failed surgery's on my knee. He said I needed a scope to clean out my knee. So he did that. I had no cartilage so the scope was unsuccessful.
He put me in a knee brace that made things worse. Added pain to my other knee and hip. He and his assistant ignored my calls for weeks. The pain was horrific, but no response for a month.
Finally I received a call from the assistant to come see the Dr. Dr Allan said they are busy so here we are. He then said I need a partial replacement because of no cartilage. I asked why this wasn't done first? He claims the mri did not reflect this. $Now he gets paid for another surgery$. Unfortunately my insurance company only has Nevada ortho and Spine Institute as my only option.
After 3 more months of waiting calling, being ignored, and calling more, to get the surgery scheduled, and a lot of constant pain, the surgery was finally scheduled. He had no surgery center that would take him, so that was the delay.
The surgery was done. It was a failure. He inserted the partial replacement pieces incorrectly. The pieces moved every step I took. That means there was pain in every step. After more calls, 3 return visits to him, he said the pain was normal and would get better. NEVER DID...
Almost 2 years later, I had a very successful knee replacement. By Orthopedic institute of Henderson. This Dr said the partial replacement was loose due to being inaccurately secured.
Dr Allan and his practice do not respect you time or your needs. He is very Arrogant and disrespectful. BEWARE.
A LAWSUIT IS WHAT THIS PRACTICE DESERVES!! read more
