Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Personable yet Informative
I felt like he treated me like a person versus some doctors who just see you as a patient. He addressed me by my chosen nickname every time. Thoroughly read my very long chart and made a plan for me for treatment. I felt better informed than I had in some time. Would definitely recommend if you are like me who doesn't like doctors or have trust issues with them

Top notch cardiologist
My husband has seen Dr Griffin numerous times over the past 5 years. He always has excellent knowledge of my husband’s cardiac issues and test results. He knows we travel a long distance to see him and he always works to expedite my husband’s tests, procedures, etc so they can be done while we are in Cleveland. Dr Griffin is a good listener and is very clean in how he answers questions and gives instructions.

This doc is the best! Takes time to completely listen to the patient's concerns. He presents options for continuing cardiac care to the patient. He works with each patient's specific lifestyle. He addresses problems and concerns and formulates a plan of action for the patient. Wonderful doc.

He takes his time explaining everything & answering questions. He remembered a question I had asked at a previous visit, which I'd forgotten all about. He remembered & addressed it, I was quite impressed. Hes very knowledgeable & tells it like it is. We drove through a snowstorm overnight to get here, we were late, he still kept my appointment & still took his time. I come from a family with a long line of heart problems & I trust this man with my life. I would recommend him in a heartbeat.
