A delight, as always. Mr Griffiths was not referred me to a few years ago by my GO because he is not local to me. Rather I did my research and 'found' him having had the need for a hysterectomy delivered in a highly insensitive manner. David Griffiths turned a negative experience into a positive one. I continue to see him annually for HRT and continue to feel the 3hour round trip worthwhile.

I had the pleasure of talking to Dr David Griffiths, and it was ultimately the best decisions I’ve made for myself. I was extremely nervous going into the appointment, especially where I haven’t had the best experiences with seeking help. But this appointment has completely changed my perspective. Dr Griffiths was friendly, kind and incredibly thorough. He took the time to listen to me and made me feel heard and supported, and answered every single question, and there were many. For me, the biggest thing is having someone who understands and believes you, and genuinely is there to help you. Being dismissed in the past, having this level of care and support was and is a huge deal for me. I am so grateful for the time and support he gave me and the experience I had, I cannot thank him enough!

Mr Griffiths recently performed excision surgery for my endometriosis. During every consultation leading up to the surgery he was attentive and listened to all my worries and questions. I felt like he empathised with me and wanted to help in anyway he could. The surgery itself went very well and the consultation after surgery was reassuring. Mr Griffiths has made me feel listened to and has helped me a lot.

My first visit to Mr Griffiths was 5 years ago and at that point I was having difficulty functioning, he totally understood and I went on the HRT medication, my life completely changed. This time I didn’t hesitate to see Mr Griffiths as I feel he is so understanding, kind and thorough. Within 3 days initial appointment, scan and review appointment everything was sorted. Mr Griffiths has given me treatment and peace of mind. Thank you

I would describe my experience at my appointment last week as exceptional. I am always offered a high level of care in that Mr Griffiths listens very carefully indeed, and is always clear about what is needed or the next step. He makes the patient feel very safe and respected at all times. This makes a significant difference in what could be a difficult consultation.
