Dr. Evana Scheker shows that she cares for her patients and is determined to get to the bottom to fix the health issues that I have going on. She is giving me hope that I can live a normal life.

I came to Allara expecting personalized, compassionate women's healthcare that was advertised - a place where I would feel heard, understood, and supported. Unfortunately, my experience has been the opposite, and it has left me feeling disappointed and increasingly concerned about the quality of care I have received. One of the biggest issues has been the messaging platform. It feels disorganized and fragmented, with multiple people responding to my messages without taking the time to read the conversation history. As a result, I received responses that didn't address my actual questions or concerns. Even more frustrating, these conversations are then closed before I have the opportunity to clarify or respond. Communication problems have extended beyond messaging. My second appointment with the doctor was rescheduled without my knowledge or consent. That was particularly unsettling given the policy warning patients about no-show fees. There have also been instances where I felt my preferences were not respected. I clearly told the doctor that I did not want to take a specific medication. Despite that conversation, the prescription was still sent to my pharmacy and was ready for pickup. I wanted to understand why this had happened, but I was unable to get an explanation from the doctor. Instead, I received responses from other people telling me that the medication was available, and then the message thread was closed. Allara presents itself as specializing in women's healthcare and perimenopause. Because of that, I expected a high level of expertise. During my visit the doctor was uncertain about the difference between an estrogen patch and an estrogen gel. None of these concerns, taken individually, would necessarily define my experience. Together, however, they paint a troubling picture of inconsistent communication, lack of continuity in care, and insufficient attention to patient concerns.

So happy I found Allara Health! After just one meeting I left so hopeful for the future and my health. For once felt seen and understood. So excited for this next healthy chapter

I was really disappointed with my experience. I scheduled this appointment because I was looking for a provider who would actually take the time to discuss my symptoms, medical history, and offer a more holistic perspective. Instead, my appointment lasted about 10 minutes and I left feeling like I got nothing of value. I explained that I already had bloodwork scheduled, yet the main recommendation was to order more labs and encourage me to schedule with a nutritionist. It honestly felt like I was being pushed into booking another appointment instead of receiving meaningful guidance during the one I had already paid for. To make matters worse, Allara accepted my insurance information when I booked the appointment, but after the visit I was informed that my specific plan wasn't covered and sent a $125 bill. Had I known that beforehand, I never would have agreed to the appointment. After disputing the charge, they eventually reduced it to $50. I appreciated that they were willing to work with me, but I still don't feel the visit justified even that amount. If you're considering Allara, verify your insurance coverage yourself before your appointment, and make sure you understand exactly what you're paying for.

Julie is outstanding. She is so knowledgeable and a great listener. She is a true professional and a gentle person. Perfect combination so you feel safe sharing. Thank you Julie!

life changing. I have been recommending this to all my friends. I have felt heard understood and empowered

Thank you so much Miranda for such a detailed, thorough, and caring consultation. I felt listened to, validated, and learned a lot from you and look forward to working together. I feel a lot more hopeful and optimistic than I did before and that means a lot. The care and attention you put into our appointment and into the follow-up note went above and beyond and I really appreciate it.

This is healthcare. My provider did not rush me, listened to everything I had to say and every concern, and more importantly gave me hope. She was compassionate and very intelligent. This is the best healthcare experience I ever had!
