Physician Assistant
Griffith’s promise to patients is to take the time to educate patients about their illness, help them understand what they can do to make it better, and why it’s important to make any changes he recommends. He is particularly interested in developing relationships with patients who may have ADHD/ADD, anxiety, depression, insomnia, panic attacks, social anxiety, post traumatic stress (PTSD), addiction, bipolar disorder, OCD, autism (ASD), or psychosis.
I am an inclusive provider, all LGBTQIA+, religions, races, and ethnicities are welcome.
