Patient Reviews
Mar 25, 2023
Dr. Griffin is a very kind, patient, skilled surgeon. He’s very knowledgeable in his field and explains everything thoroughly. Dr. Griffin is extremely attentive to his patients. He visited my husband twice a day in the hospital and was always checking via email with the nurses to make sure that everything was being done correctly. He completed an extremely complicated surgery on my husband and explained everything in detail prior to the surgery. Dr. Griffin welcomes any questions that a patient may have and has a wonderful bedside manner. We highly recommend Dr. Griffin.
