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.

A caring professional!
Dr. Griffith has the patience and skill to explain the diagnosis in a way that’s easy to understand. He has a very calm demeanor and exudes confidence and professionalism. I would have no reservations about putting my treatment in his hands.
