I saw Dr. Griswold and he diagnosed me with cataracts, recommended multi-focal lenses, I paid him an ungodly amount for those lenses and he repeatedly cancelled the surgery. I have asked for a refund for MONTHS and when he finally stopped avoiding me and met with me he wrote me a BAD CHECK!!! Come to find out once I went to a competent and reputable doctor, because I previously had LASIK I am not even a candidate for multifocal lenses! Dr. Griswold also took my money after the Arizona Board of Osteopathic Examiners had met with him and his attorney and put the limitations (NO SURGERY) on his license!!! I have filed complaints against him with the Arizona Attorney General’s Office, the Arizona Board of Osteopathic Examiners, and filed a police report. Next I will have to get an attorney and it will cost him a lot more than refund of the money I paid him for the lenses!!!

This guy is NOT a glaucoma specialist! He consistently misdiagnosed and mistreated my glaucoma over an extended period of time. Fortunately, I found a real glaucoma specialist before serious irreversible damage was done to my vision by his treatment ( or lack thereof ). I fully agree with the comments made in the other negative reviews posted here as well. Do yourself and your eyes a favor and find a real glaucoma specialist !

This man is being investigated for a number of malpractice issues and that is just part of the problem. I’ve spoken to former patients whose surgery he botched. BE WARE!! Do not go to him.

If you want a Dr. who does not take the time to listen to your concerns, this is the one for you. I have no confidence this physician provides adequate care.
