Dr. Griffin has been my doctor for about two years. I followed her to her new location because she gives great service and she takes everything seriously. She always takes her time with me and I never feel rushed.

Our family drives over an hour to be seen by Dr. Griffin. Her bedside manner is always soothing. Her diagnoses have always been spot-on and we have benefitted greatly from her care. She is a compassionate physician who truly listens to her patients...a rarity these days!

First of all she took credit for something she should have found 2 years prior. I went there repeatedly and done several blood tests and other testing trying to find the reason behind my illness. To my face she was compassionate stating she would find out what was wrong regardless. While in my chart basically notating I was insane and all of the issues were anxiety based. Well after finding that my blood work had every sign of CANCER!!! for two years and I probably would have died if I had not kept pushing to get answers. Good luck with this lady! Hopefully you don't have anything seriously wrong with you!! Oh and don't go to your appointment at the end of the day....she don't have time to listen to your problems!

I have been seeing Dr. Griffin for approximately 1 year (4 visits). Professional, caring, listens, advises, and follows-up. WONDERFUL personality! Would definitely recommend her to my family or friends. One of the BEST MDs I have ever had........period! Her staff is a pleasure as well. If you experienced a bad visit, maybe your attitude is what's wrong.

This doctor and her staff are rude and uncaring I would not recommend anyone to see Dr.Griffin there are many more experienced and caring doctors in Jacksonville and she is not one of them.

Dr Griffin is a very thoughtful and knowledgeable physician. She has always made my health a priority. I never feel rushed. She also is very "OCD" which I personally love that quality in a physician. She will find the answer !!
