Dr Griffin retired...much to my dismay, he kept me on track for more than a decade, and I cannot say enough good things about him. He is caring, compassionate, eager to help and work with solutions to problems. He succeeded with medications where many others did not. I cannot say enough good things about this doctor, I highly respected him, his opinion and his way of practicing. He helped and made my life much better and I appreciate all he did to help me.

Dr. Griffin is the best psychiatrist I've ever had. He's extremely knowledgeable, and very kind and caring. He really thinks about your specific situation and comes up with excellent suggestions to improve your life. He really excels at being a creative & imaginative thinker or "problem solver" - & his suggestions show how much he really cares about his patients' lives. The best doctor I've ever had (& I've seen a large number). He is simply the BEST.

Dr. Grifin is a very knowledgeable practitioner who properly diagnosed me in 2011. He is very compassionate at what he does, listens to you and very supportive. He's the very first pyschiatrist that I have come across who has got my diagnosis correctly. I was affiliated with Delta Mental health and honestly they are a bunch of quacks! I now live a normal stress free life and able to fulfill my endeavors! I highly recommend Dr. Griffin!

Basically you tell him what you have, and you have it. His "tests" are the same as the online tests. Seems he can't see a patient who needs help when they are clearly not doing so well. Very easy doctor to scam into thinking you need drugs basically. I was not there for the drugs, I needed help.

Dr. Griffin is very knowledgeable about current medications & will take the time to explore the best medication or "cocktail" of medications that works best for you as an individual. This is what makes him an exceptional psychiatrist compared to most psychiatrists who will prescribe only a few medications (or only one!!)- & if you complain of side effects, they write you up as "non-compliant" or "difficult" - But Dr. Griffin is eager to make sure he's fine-tuned his patients' medications & is always willing to let them try the newest meds. He's saved my life - not only expert pharmacological knowledge, but he's very supportive of his patients, willing to do or suggest brilliant & creative solutions to patients problems.

Dr. Griffin is the best doctor I've ever had. He is extremely supportive and always has my best interests at heart; he's an expert therapist who employs highly sophisticated and creative problem-solving skills to my individual situation and problems; he's very knowledgeable psychiatrict and other medications. I've been his patient since 2008 and, as a result, my life has improved dramatically: I'm positive, upbeat, energetic, filled with hope, and eagerly look forward to each day and my future.

Knowledgeable, understanding, helps one feel comfortable opening up and telling him whats troubling them.I tried to see 2 other Dr.s before him and sat there unable to talk honestly. Dr.Griffin seems genuine in wanting to help you.

Knows a lot about FM/CFS and PTSD and how all are interrelated. Definitely a great doctor and one I would recommend. Certainly understands dynamics in workplaces and was helpful in making certain issues clear for me.
