Although Dr. Allison had thought about a career in medicine, she initially found herself in the IT industry after graduating from college. She decided to pursue a career in medicine because her work in IT left her unfulfilled, wanting to do something more meaningful. Dr. Allison believes the best part of her job is truly making a difference in someone’s life. She especially enjoys caring for the LGBTQ community, a traditionally marginalized patient population.
Dr. Allison has a special interest in lesbian/transgender health care and minimally invasive/robotic surgery.
