Excellent experience all the way around. I am disappointed he is leaving. So many of my providers are leaving Swedish/Providence.

Dr. Griffin is an excellent surgeon and caring doctor. He is always on time, efficient, and knows what he is doing to the greatest benefit of his patients. Please give him incentives and a hefty raise so he can stay here; I will miss him so much!
