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.

My father, who is in his 90s, had two skin checks with Dr. Griffin. in a 3-year period Both appointments were on time and handled in a professional manner. At the second appointment, he had two facial basal-cell cancers. Ours was the last appointment of the day so Dr Griffin graciously took additional time to remove both so we saved a return trip. It's not easy getting a 90 year old to doctor appointments! One was removed by scalpel and one (under the eye) by laser with both procedures taking less than 30 minutes. Both healed quickly despite haphazard at-home care. We got the stitches out 7-days later. Dr Griffin and her staff are caring individuals and pleasant to work with. We will be back.

I went in for a lipoma removal, and $1530 later(and I have and had insurance at the time of the visit) I am regretting ever entering the offices of this dermatologist. Do NOT let this dermatologist near you or any of your family and friends. Seek other care, and I was referred to this woman by my primary care physician?!?! Suture job was terrible, manners were terrible and rude, regretting every moment of my decision to enter this office. The contact # on the post op paper says out of service.

She is the worst Doctor I have ever meet in my entire life. she doesn't know much about the skin disease. I am surprise to see how a person like her get the degree and certificate to practice medicine. she did a wrong diagnosis and wrote me a ointment/lotion which makes my infection even worst . After 2 week asked her if she can do a better diagnosis and write other medication . she told this is the only medicine she can write and she doesn't know anything consult other dermatologist.

My whole experience at this office was negative. I arrived 20 minutes early to fill out paperwork and ended up waiting over 1.5 hours to be seen for 5 minutes. The doctor and the medical assistant didn't leave the room when I had to undress. Then they took a picture of my rash without asking permission (it was on my hip and butt) and when I walked out to leave, the picture was printed on a sheet with the front desk lady for anyone walking in to see. Unfortunately 500 characters can't fit it all.
