Dr Griffith and his staff always take their time to hear my issues and then to make informed decisions about my treatment!! I would recommend to anyone this practice and I would be certain they would come away with the same conclusion!! It's refreshing to see them go above and beyond for my health needs! It's rare these days!! Thank you Dr Griffith!!

wonderful doctor who I am going to allow to remove my gallbladder. He was very attentive, took his time with me, was not rushed. Explained things thoroughly and answered all my questions and calmed my fears. I am so thankful my GI doctor referred me to Dr. Griffith. All the other reviews about him are true!!!

The surgical group and surgical team were amazing on my visit. However, the ER visit the week prior was the worst experience of my life. I sat in pain and vomiting for hours with no assistance. Nurses didn't even know I was there or where I was. A security guard that checked on me was the only thing that kept me going. While I would recommend the surgical group I will never recommend anyone go to the ER for treatment. I could have died and no one would have known. I would love to give administration some infor on my experience.
