What people say about Dr Karen Allen

Loading…

I had a fantastic experience with Premier Vision of Dallas. I was greeted immediately upon arrival and the receptionist was friendly and welcoming. The forms were easy to understand and could be completed in 2 minutes or less. The office is paperless so the forms were in page protector sleeves and signed with a dry erase marker then scanned into their system. How refreshing to stumble across a provider that cares about waste reduction and sustainability! Dr. Allen was extremely personable and well prepared. She had read through my questionnaire beforehand and was ready to roll as soon as I was invited into the exam room. She asked about my recent move to Texas, and even provided hiking trail suggestions after she learned that I was missing the outdoor recreation options readily available in my home state of Michigan. After the exam Dr. Allen introduced me to another lady to discuss insurance and payment options. It was quick and painless! She had reviewed my insurance card and let me know exactly what was covered. Next I got to select my frames. The lady was super helpful and assisted me to pick frames that complimented my features (I’m a first timer so I was a bit nervous about finding the right pair). The whole experience only last 45 minutes! I really cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Premiere Vision of Dallas. Dr Allen is the best! She is amazing with children– exam was thorough and efficient. I had been with her now for 4 years.

Very inviting office! Dr. Allen was very personable, made me feel at ease, and gave me new options for different contact lenses and solution. There is a large selection of frames for those looking for new glasses!

Dr. Allen is very professional but also friendly, and I felt very relaxed and at ease during my appointment. I am normally very anxious seeing doctors of any type but she was very easy to talk to, didn’t scrutinize about not making regular appointments, and was very helpful with making sure I had the best strength of contacts for my shape eyes and my profession (since I look at the computer for over 8 hours a day). She made sure I was comfortable and even put in me contacts I could sleep in and wear for a month. Her staff was also very friendly and did a great job helping me find a pair of glasses. I found my new eye care and eye wear specialists!

GREAT EXPERIENCE! STRONGLY RECOMMEND! I recently moved to the area from out of state and thought I was going to have a hard time trying to find a NICE doctor, who also takes my insurance. This was my first stop and it was AMAZING! Dr. Allen is very easy to talk to and so FRIENDLY! Her staff is also incredible! Beatriz helped me figure out what my insurance covered and even gave me a follow up email to see how I was doing with my new glasses! Absolutely loved it! Great staff! Amazing doctor!

Nora Gonzalez

My husband and I both saw Dr. Allen recently for eye exams as well as for contacts and glasses. We decided on Premier Vision after reading these reviews, and we were completely satisfied with the experience! The office set up is very high quality, the staff is friendly and helpful, and Dr. Allen is timely and knowledgable. Everyone had a great attitude, they did not try to up-sale more expensive options and we did not feel pressured to spend extra money. Dr. Allen even addressed some eye redness and discomfort I haven’t been able to resolve on my own due to allergies, and the treatment for that is helping wonderfully! We will definitely be returning for years to come and recommending this location to our friends and family!

Amazing staff wonderful doctor! She was so personable and made me feel like I was important! More on the pricey side but it is so worth it! She gave me options about my eye health to make sure I was comfortable! I am definitely going back!
