Kenneth L. Allen M.D.

What a life! Even when you read the description of him in the obituary his personality comes through. My condolences are extended the Allen family and particularly to Mary Jean.

Dear Bruce,
My heartfelt condolences to you.
Your father was such a sweet man and one of a small handful of Dr's easy to work with in surgery.My thoughts and prayers are with you and your Mom. Katie

Bruce, so sorry to just learn of your loss. Kenny was such an exceptional person whose skills far exceeded his unique and dexterous talents in the operating room. He was perhaps the most personable and understanding surgeon that I ever worked with in my career as an anesthesiologist. Not only did he treat colleagues with respect and professionalism but also the “lesser” employees. His concerns truly focused on those of patients and their families. His easy-going and calming bed-side...

To the entire Allen Family,
We are sorry for your loss. Our daughter Susanne and Emily Allen have become close friends over the course of three years together at Washington & Jefferson College. We think highly of her and always enjoy the time she spends with us. She spoke of her grandfather often with only the kindest words and expressions of love. She will truly miss him. We extend our sympathies.

My deepest sympathy to the Allen Family for the loss of Dr. Allen. My father was a patient of his in 1968, and my mother had known Dr. Allen through working with him. When I needed to have surgery in the late '80's, I knew Dr. Allen was the one to see, and not surprisingly, he had remembered my father at that time, as well. Dr. Allen was a wonder surgeon and a very sweet, kind man. I was blessed to have had him as my doctor, as well.

My sincere sympathy to all of you. I was a so blessed to have Doctor Allen in my life and as "my surgeon". Mills Hospital could not have functioned without him. Truly a devoted and wonderful physician and friend.
