Dr. Griffin

Meet Thomas F. Griffin Jr., MD

My philosophy of caring for my patients centers around helping them enjoy a healthier life by working together to improve their state of mind, body, spirit and relationships. Specifically, I have found that assisting people in managing their cardiovascular health risks usually enhances all four of these areas as well as their entire lives. My staff and I focus on enjoying life rather than avoiding death. The most common side effect of a healthy life is a longer one. This has been my philosophy for years and is the subject of my personal health planning book, Feeling Good for Life.

Frequently Asked Questions

Doctors who operate in the MDVIP models typically see far fewer patients than traditional primary care doctors. That gives them more time to develop deeper doctor-patient relationships that can lead to better outcomes. They can also offer conveniences that most primary care doctors can’t, including same- and next-day appointments. They’re available after hours for urgent matters. And they have time to focus on prevention. That focus begins with the MDVIP Wellness Program, which patients pay for with their annual membership fee.

Most MDVIP-affiliated primary care practices accept insurance (your physician can tell you whether they accept your specific insurance plan). Your annual fee pays for preventive care medical services that insurance usually doesn’t cover (e.g., advanced diagnostic testing and screenings). Your MDVIP-affiliated physician will continue to bill your insurance and charge copays, co-insurances and deductibles as he or she currently does for other medical services like sick visits.

MDVIP makes wellness and prevention easier by providing your physician with innovative tools and technology. MDVIP supports your physician’s practice and seeks to eliminate barriers to a positive healthcare experience. Your doctor will determine whether and how to incorporate these tools at his/her discretion.

Prior to Dr Griffin I had a PCP for a number of years. The care was always rushed, had little face-to-face time with the PCP, and in one instance had a disastrous diagnosis. My significant other convinced me to go to Dr Griffin and the experience has been wonderful. I would never go back to any other form of health care.

Dr. Griffin is not just one of the best he IS the best! His wealth of medical knowledge and extraordinary dedication to his patients is beyond compare. The compassion he has for his patients is evident at every appointment by the way he takes the time to truly listen to your every concern and answer every question you might have. He treats you like a family member instead of just another patient. Dr.Griffin has been my primary care physician for over 15 yrs. and no other PCP, even during the time I lived in another state, has ever come close to measuring up to his expertise and his exceptionally kind and compassionate bedside manner!

Dr Griffin has been my doctor even before MDVIP. His care was excellent then and having fewer patients has allowed him to spend the time necessary with each patient. I have also had to phone him off hours and his responses are always quick and helpful.

I joined MDVIP first of all as I had a very difficult time finding medical care in my area after moving here four years ago. So, I decided to seek out concierge care. I went on NEXTDOOR a neighborhood on line chat and asked for references for this type of care. Dr Griffin's name came up several times. I booked a meet and greet and found him to be very down to earth. He was interested in my life and health concerns and my goal to stay healthy as long as possible. He has always been accessible via phone, email or text...even in the evening and on the weekend. I have recommended him to several friends/relatives. I have recommended MDVIP to friends who live out of the area. To me, even though the service is somewhat expensive; I find it well worth while and hope I can continue on this path for a long time.

The patience of a Saint👍
