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.

I and my wife have been patients of Dr. Griffin and his nurse Kim for many, many years. Not only does Dr. Griffin go above and beyond to ensure the best health care for you, but his staff, (especially his nurse Kim) does their best to follow up on your health and their actions and compassion ensure that they follow the highest medical ethics and caring I've ever encountered! I rate them both 5 stars!

Dr. Griffin has been my doctor for at least 9 years and I wouldn't go to anyone else. I've even changed my insurance coverage to make sure I could continue going to him. He's so attentive, personable and knowledgeable and makes you feel at ease. Dr. Griffin never rushes you and always makes sure all your questions are answered. I've referred many friends over the years.

Doctor Griffin is the best professional person in his field I believe. He has also treated my health needs with concern and need to help the problems. I would never want to loose his health care needs or friendship.

Was a patient for 6 years. Recently he's went downhill. Dropping the ball on referrals and scripts. He doesn't care anymore - just goes through the motions.

I've been a patient of Dr Griffin for years and during that course of time I saw him twice to get referrals to see others for back pain issues. In both instances he failed to get the referrals communicated to staff. The first time I assumed the staff dropped the ball, which I now suspect was wrong. The second time it was him. To make matters worse, he went on vacation and cannot be contacted by his scheduler. Two weeks of unnecessary pain. Never again.

He is judgmental. I always took pictures of things that would happy because he didn't have to say a word to let me know he didn't believe me. It was written all over his face and body language (communications degree).Main issue: BP. I said over and over it is constantly really high until recently but still is bott # is ^ 90's-low 100's. It's bc of his medical equipment. He uses a cuff that could wrap around my arm 3x. 2 days ago @ gyno smaller cuff same method 139/96... It's ridiculous.
