I am saddened to learn of the passing of Dr. Flood!  He was the ONLY dermatologist that cured my adult acne and help restore my hair from chemical damage, many years ago!  Blessings to his family, friends, staff, and the many patients he loved!

Allen,
You were literally the first person I met when I moved to Maryland in 1977 from Philadelphia.  We forged a friendship/bond which endured until you left us unexpectedly.  We all miss you my friend.

John M. Hayes, MD

With much sadness I had to write this brief message. He will be greatly missed. I'm happy you left us Anthony!

Your Patient,
Paula

You are truly missed Dr. Flood. GOD Bless you and your family.

My sympathy to the family.   I knew Allen as a schoolmate at NC A&T State  University.  Years later while researching our Archie family history, I found my great great grandmother was Sabra Flood  from the Ahoskie/Coefield /Murfreesboro area.  I have often thought about Allen and wondered if we were relatives.  I knew Allen was from that area but never followed up.  May he rest in peace.

He was a gentle giant and will be greatly missed. Simply the best.

Heartbroken. My prayers and condolences to Dr. Floods friends & family.  A patient for 20+ years he helped me manage my skin issues better than any other dermatologist, which is why I remained loyal to him and his practice. He has the best staff. Always pleasant with a great sense of humor and smile, a wise direct man who always knew what to say and always answered my questions informatively. He will be sorely missed. Glad I got to see you a few months ago. Thank You for all you have done. 🙏🏽❤️🕊

Sincerest condolences to Dr. Flood's family, friends, and patients. 
May GOD give you strength during this difficult time and always🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
R.I.P.  Dr. Flood.
You are truly missed.

Always do the most with the time God has given… Me and my Grandpa Allen. I love you, Jessie🤍

My heart was truly broken to hear the news that we had lost Dr.  Flood .  He was the best. Thorough, transparent , and kind dermatologist I’ve ever met very helpful and always accommodating. I can truly say he was loved and appreciated by everyone who knew him especially his patients. He will be definitely a great loss to the community I hope that his family is able to continue on with his legacy because he had created a tremendous legacy dealing with dermatology - Dr. Martina Washington New Life Wellness Center DC

Heartfelt condolences to the Family! Great memories of Dr.
Flood.

We are deeply saddened and heartbroken to hear of the  loss of our friend Allen Flood, M. D.  Juanita and all of the members of the Flood family have our deepest sympathy.  We will miss Allen so much.  We had the pleasure of sharing many vacations with Allen, Juanita, along with Tom and Donna Day.  We travelled to Europe, Aruba, and Martha’s Vineyard together.  We will always smile when we think about Allen.  When we went to Europe and visited the great monuments in the Mediterranean, we had a tour guide.  After we finished the tours we decided that we really didn’t need a tour guide to tell us the history of the Parthenon, Ephesus, or any of the great landmarks.  All we needed was our erudite friend, Allen.  He could talk for hours about the history of every place we visited.  We will miss his infectious laughter, his zest for life, and the joy he brought to anyone in his presence.  Rest in peace Allen.


The Purple H-20 Tailgate Crew will miss our friend, but we will cherish the fond memories hanging out at the Washington Football Team games. We will keep the family in our prayers. 



I met Allen in 4th grade and we were friends through high school and college. We have not seen each other in many years but I was shocked and sad to hear of his passing . R.I.P. my friend.

My sincere condolences to Mrs. Flood and family on the loss of our beloved Dr. Allen Flood.  Dr. Flood was not only one of the best dermatologist in the Washington, DC area, he was a highly skilled, compassionate caregiver, and a father of the community.  He treated my hair loss after a very bad weave and also mended my self esteem.  We already miss the comfort of just knowing you are around.  God bless you Dr. Flood in heaven for all the good you did for us in this life on earth.  Thank you.

I hope you can find comfort in the memories and celebration of your love one Dr. Flood. I send my prayers and support to you and your family during this difficult time.
Let the memories provide comfort in your journey through this loss.
Deepest Condolences,
Sharon Anderson 
(Dr. Allen Flood’s patient)

We send our heartfelt and deepest condolences. We were very saddened to hear of the passing of our brother-in-law Allen. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.♥️
Allen took excellent care of all. When I visited his office last September, he did just that. His compassion and expertise in dermatology was the best.
He will be sorely missed

I was sorry to hear of Dr. Flood's passing and wish to offer my deepest condolences to his family.   I worked with Dr. Flood at Shaw Community Health Center in the 70's,  I was a nurse and he was a Resident on rotation; back then the patients called him “the hippie doctor” because his hair was long and he wore a straw hat and sandals. Dr. Flood was a good person, a great  physician and he was always fun to be around. He nicknamed me “Jeannie Mae”, no one would ever dare call me that but he did and got away with it. I haven't been in contact with Dr.  Flood in ages and it saddens me to know he is gone; we've all been blessed to have know him.
To the Flood Family, cherish your memories, he lives in them and in your heart. 
Deepest Sympathy,
Jeanne Davenport

My Life Journey with Allen A. Flood, M.D. - I am sadden and in mourning at the loss of my colleague and dear friend, Allen A. Flood, M.D.  Allen and I met during our studies in medical school as we sat together in an anatomy class.  Allen grew up in Ahoskie, North Carolina and I grew up in New York City.  He was such a gregarious guy, who had a quick wit and boundless energy.  As we sat in medical classes, he liked teasing me.  Knowing that I was from New York City, he gave me the nick name “NYTD” based on the New York City Police Department (NYPD).  Not only was he very astute in his medical studies, but he was also very adept in his knowledge of history; he was a history buff.  His knowledge of life in general was beyond reproach. Within the realm of dermatology after medical school, internship, and residency, Allen and I studied together for our Dermatology Boards. We passed the Boards, and as practicing Fellows of the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) over the last 40+ years, we have shared many dermatological cases and clinical treatments. Most recently, we worked together regarding the SBA-backed loans provided to businesses to keep our workforce employed during the COVID-19 pandemic. While we shared many experiences together in our medical practices, we also shared many experiences traveling abroad with our wives and friends; that is, traveling to various countries in Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Caribbean.  Allen loved jazz, so we traveled to the Caribbean on a “Smooth Jazz Cruise” where he spent countless hours listening to some of his favorite jazz musicians.  Allen also loved football, and was a die-hard “Redskin” fan, as the football team was called a few years ago.  However, since I am a die-hard Ravens’ fan, Allen and his wife, enthusiastically, accompanied my wife and me during 2017 to watch the Baltimore Ravens play the Jacksonville Jaguars in an NFL game in London.  As friends, we also traveled together to Martha’s Vineyard. Allen loved the unspoiled beauty of Martha’s Vineyard and the camaraderie of friends on the island. To know Allen was to love him; he lived every day to the fullest. There are many attributes that would describe Allen A. Flood, M.D.; however, the ones that stand out for me are as follows:  he was a great husband, father, brother, uncle, cousin, colleague, friend, and godfather to my son.  Allen A. Flood, M.D. was a living legend. He was truly defined by his infectious, charming personality. To paraphrase a quote of the late Justice Thurgood Marshall, “In recognizing the humanity of Allen A. Flood, M.D., we pay ourselves the highest tribute in extolling, a man of many virtues.”
Thomas B. Day, M.D.
Friend and 1972 Classmate 

Dr. Flood was the BEST DOCTOR I ever had.   I am so appreciative of him choosing to share his medical gift to the city and people of color.  I went to several dermatologists who had no clue how to treat me and then someone said to me "Have you been to see  Dr. Flood?"  That was the beginning of a blessing.  I am so glad I told Dr. Flood "Thank you for helping me."  To the family:  My sincerest condolences and prayers are with you.  May God keep you at this difficult time.

Dr. Flood I will miss you so much. Thanks for being the best doctor I ever had. If I knew last month when I saw you would’ve been the last time, I would’ve hugged you and thanked you for everything. 

May my old North Carolina A & T college friend RIP.  He and I along with other of our friends shared many good times  together.
Sincerely,
Mr. Albert E. White

Dr. Flood was my doctor for many years.  I called today to make an appointment and was sad to learn of his recent passing.   As a doctor he was   always very kind and listened.   My condolences to his family.

my prayers are with the Flood family. Allen and I were roommates our freshman year at A&T. May GOD bless you. Jesse [Slack] Harris.

We are sad to learn of Dr Flood passing.  I knew Allen from our days at A&T.  He was a very likeable , intelligent, fun loving, great sense of humor, dedicated student. We extend sincere sympathy to the Flood family and friends.

I could always count on Dr. Flood for my dermatology  needs. He will be surly missed.

Sorry to hear of Allen's passing would have enjoyed seeing him at our 50th reunion  He was a memorable classmate of mine.  Always had a great sense of humor. I will surely miss the chance to see him again. Condolences to his family

 As one of Dr. Allen’s long-standing patients, I bring you condolences for your loss. Losing  a loved one is hard. And so I'm praying hard foryour family’s peace, comfort,  and for whatever you need right now.. May his memory be a blessing to you.





Dr.  Floyd was my dermatologist for many years.  I loved his candor and bedside manner.  He was instrumental in helping me with regrowing my edges.  I will miss his smile and ability to listen to your concerns.  I am praying for his family, staff in his office , friends and patients whom I know will mis the wonderful man.

I know we all must go at some time. I'm grateful for having known you. You were one of the gracious knowledgeable teachers I had at Howard University Hospital during my residency  in Family Practice which was in it's infancy. You gave me and my fellow trainees mad respect. Thank you. 

My heart is broken over the loss of my Uncle Allen. Every significant memory in my life, he was there. From holidays, graduations, my time as student at Howard and many other moments. When Daddy passed, I would look at 
Uncle Allen and see him. I especially enjoyed our monthly "check in " calls and text messages. I find comfort in knowing that Grandma, Granddad, Uncle Merrill, Daddy and Aunt Renee are there with him. I'm  so blessed to have another guardian angel looking out for me. 
Love you forever Uncle Allen!! Until I see you again, 
Spacey Stacey

I am so saddened and heartbroken to learn of the passing of my dear friend and classmate Allen A. Flood, MD.  I knew him to be a remarkable man, husband, father, brother, and now I know he was also a great uncle.  My deepest sympathy goes you to you Juanita, his sons, and his entire family and friends.  He will be missed but never forgotten.

I am so sorry to hear of the passing of me Dr. Flood. I was a patient of dr flood when he worked for Kaiser permanente.  I was 20 years old.  My last visit to see Dr Flood was in January 2022 the sweetest man and best dr I had.  Fondest memories I have Alopecia and folliculitis in 1998 Dr flood said you better not come up in my office with that weave again and stop the relaxer and I said what do you want me to with with this hair he said bring back the bush and we laughed. Rest in Heaven Dr flood from Donna Davis and family.

Dr. Allen Flood was known in the Washington DC, Suburban Maryland area as a very skilled, knowledgeable and compassionate dermatologist , who added significantly to our community of healthcare professionals. I knew Dr. Allen Flood as a classmate, during our time at the Howard University College of Medicine class of 1972( 50 short years ago). At that time and subsequently, he was known for is intelligence comradeship and good humor. I knew Allen and have considered him to be a friend, since our undergraduate days at Howard University College of Liberal Arts. Alan Flood will be greatly missed by his friends, colleagues and patients, as well as his family.
Sincere Condolences,

My heart is broken over the loss of my Uncle Allen. Every significant memory in my life, Uncle Allen was there. When my father passed, I treasured him even more as he was the last male connection to my Dad.  I especially enjoyed our "check in " calls and text messages.  I find comfort in knowing he had his parents and his siblings at those gates cheering and welcoming him in !!! I'm blessed to have another guardian angel. Love you forever Uncle Allen!!
Until I see you again,
Stacey Flood

My prayers go with you as your family mourn the loss of Allen.  He will surely be missed. His older brother Merrill would talk about the wonderful childhood memories they shared.  Watching the three brothers playing base ball one Sunday afternoon at the Cofield, NC  home is a memory that stayed with me all these years. May God’s blessings be with you always.
