Subsequently, she relocated to Texas and the University of Texas Medical Branch for the integrated plastic and reconstructive surgery residency from 2019-2025. While a resident, Dr. Allen was passionate about resident education, training, and mentorship, so she was thrilled to be offered a position to join as a faculty plastic surgeon and continue these passions. Her clinical practice at UTMB will consist of a majority time at Shriners Children’s Texas treating children as well as time at UTMB treating adults. She offers both reconstructive and cosmetic procedures of the head and neck, breasts, and body for all ages.
