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.

Terrible doctor enjoys seeing poor ppl suffer
The front desk confused me with other patients more than once. They forgot to finish the blood work and then blamed me for it. Still never finished the blood work and didn't give a sh!t about any of my symptoms and didn't listen or finish the examination without completely dismissing me in the rudest way possible and yelling me it was all in my mind and they were all false positives and nothing is wrong! Never go to her I will bring this business down until we get doctors that see medicaid carriers as HUMAN BEINGS and treat us as such!

I have been seeing Dr. Griffiths for several years and she is always attentive to my concerns whether they are new or repeated. She explains medical issues and writes scripts right away for follow up tests. She also schedules the follow up appointment soon after and suggests that I message through patient portal should I have any concerns prior to my appointment. She demonstrates genuine care for her patients. I have recommended her to several people, two of which have seen her.

I've had horrible experiences with this office.
I'm going without medication because of the office staff. They required I come in a head of my yearly appointment in order to get a refill. I called today and was first told all appointments were rescheduled for this doctor. Then I was told I never had an appointment. The assistant is rude.
