About Mr David Griffiths

Mr David Griffiths is a senior and well-known consultant gynaecologist practising in both the NHS and the private sector. With nearly 40 years of experience, he completed his formative training in the Midlands, followed by his first clinical fellowship in Reproductive Medicine and IVF at St James’s University Hospital, Leeds.

Mr Griffiths was awarded a Fellowship in Urogynaecology & Pelvic Floor Reconstruction, which took him to Harvard Medical School, Boston, USA. After completing his fellowship, he trained at the Center for Endometriosis Care in Atlanta, Georgia, worked in New Zealand, and then returned to the UK to complete his training.

Known for his approachable manner and excellent communication, Mr Griffiths encourages a personal, holistic approach—supporting patients in a comfortable, relaxed setting.

His specialist interests include:

  • Pelvic pain and endometriosis
  • Menstrual disorders
  • Pelvic floor problems
  • Urinary incontinence

Mr Griffiths was the first gynaecologist in the UK to offer the non-invasive Endosure test for endometriosis, and he supports clinics across the UK. He is also an accredited British Menopause Society specialist and trainer.

As an expert surgeon, Mr Griffiths performs over 300 operations each year, specialising in advanced and complex laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery for endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, pelvic floor reconstruction, and other benign conditions.

He is also the Medical Director of The Hysterectomy Centre—the first and only dedicated centre of its kind in the UK, supported by a committed multidisciplinary team.

Mr Griffiths is married and has four daughters.

Having known David for many years, I can confidently say he is an exceptional specialist in women's health. His compassionate approach, vast knowledge, and surgical expertise have vastly improved my physical and emotional well-being. He never rushes an appointment and always takes the time to explain every option, advantage, and risk. Together, we always create a long-term care plan that goes beyond a single procedure. After my recent visit to navigate menopause and challenges with transdermal HRT, I walked away with a tailored plan that has made all the difference.

Mr Griffiths was very personable, clear and knowledgeable. We had answers and diagnoses which our local hospital had been unable to recognise. We are so grateful for the opportunity to access Endosure.

I cannot recommend Mr Griffiths highly enough. He performed my hysterectomy in February, and from my very first appointment through to my ongoing follow-up care, I have felt I was in exceptionally capable and caring hands. He was absolutely fantastic throughout. He was attentive, reassuring and always took the time to explain everything clearly, keeping me fully informed at every stage. I never felt rushed or like I was just another patient. I genuinely felt listened to and understood, and I always felt comfortable asking questions or raising any concerns. He was also incredibly professional and reliable — appointments were always on time, and his follow-up letters arrived promptly, which gave me a real sense that my care was being followed up properly and thoughtfully. What stood out to me most, though, was how personal his care felt. He remembered little details about me that wouldn’t necessarily have been included in my medical notes, and those small things made a huge difference. They made me feel that he genuinely saw me as a person, rather than simply as a patient. The aftercare I have received has been just as excellent. He has taken the time to make sure my HRT dose is right for me and has carefully monitored how I am responding to it, helping to minimise the side effects of going straight into menopause following my surgery. This has had a genuinely positive impact on my quality of life and has helped me feel much more like myself again. Undergoing a hysterectomy and going straight into menopause is a significant experience, and having a consultant who made me...

I first met Mr Griffiths when I was 13/14 years old with him being the one to perform my hysterectomy when I was 29 years old so I saw him a lot over the years and he was so supportive every step of the way. No disrespect but for a male to be so empathetic to issues they would never be able to truly feel and understand, now that is a real skill. He genuinely cares about his patients and I have spoken to so many people over the years who all say the same thing about how lovely, kind, caring and patient he is. I dont think he will ever truly realise how much it means to me, that he has given me my life back but I just want to say Thank you!!!!

Dr Griffiths is always very helpful, understanding and approachable, no matter what you discuss with him. He genuinely goes out of his way to ensure his patients are well cared for throughout their treatment. I had a follow-up appointment with Dr Griffiths after my surgery in November, and he was, without hesitation, incredibly helpful. He immediately guided my husband and me towards the best approach and provided us with the reassurance and advice we needed. I’m always pleased to say that we leave our appointments with a clear understanding of my symptoms and the confidence that I’m in the best hands. We never feel that we have to hold back or hesitate to raise any concerns. Dr Griffiths always takes the time to listen, reassure us and provide the best possible advice. I’m truly grateful for his continued care, support and understanding.

I have found Mr Griffiths to be very warm and compassionate in his approach towards me and my care. After struggling to feel heard and to experience empathy within NHS primary care, it was so refreshing to find not only genuine expertise but also real understanding of the difficulties I was facing. He clearly takes women's health seriously and also understood the practical realities of being a mum with young children. He listened carefully to the constraints I was dealing with and was extremely solution-focussed , genuinely wanting to find a treatment approach that worked for me and fitted realistically into my life. I have felt listened to, supported and very well cared for, and I am extremely grateful for his help.

I have had nothing but excellent care from Mr Griffiths. In every consultation I have felt reassured and listened to, and it really stuck with me how much he empathised. My options have always been clearly explained, and my choices supported. I also appreciated being able to have my own support person with me, as well as his colleague as a chaperone too.

Mr Griffiths has given me so much hope for the future in terms of treating symptoms that I’ve been dealing with for over a decade but created a solid treatment plan in a single appointment. At all points during appointments, pre and post surgery his bedside manner was informative and amiable along with being incredible at dealing with patients like myself that have severe anxiety he was able to put me at ease and increase my confidence that we could find a solution when I previously thought that might have been impossible. No matter what the question, Mr Griffiths is always willing to answer and provides insight on all forms of treatment etc that have been proposed. I’d never been to a gynaecologist before so I was understandably terrified but now I feel so much more informed on the role a gynecologist can play and also in turn supporting others who might be as nervous as I was. I couldn’t recommend Mr Griffiths enough.
