CONCIERGE MEDICINE
The cultural and commercial heart of St. Pete — museums, restaurants, the waterfront, and the wave of high-rise residences from Beach Drive to the Edge District. The neighborhood our office was built to serve.

WHAT CONCIERGE MEANS HERE
Concierge medicine in Downtown St. Petersburg means the same physician each visit, the same Patient Care Coordinator who knows your name and your preferences, and the same 24/7 access to a real Griffin physician — whether you are five minutes from our St. Petersburg office or thirty. The relationship is the same. The drive-time is the only variable.
IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD
Downtown St. Petersburg has undergone a transformation that few mid-sized American cities can claim — from a sleepy retirement destination to a nationally recognized art, culture, and culinary hub, all while preserving the waterfront character that made it worth preserving. Residents who have chosen downtown have chosen it deliberately: Beach Drive gallery openings, the Saturday morning market at Straub Park, dinner on Central Avenue, and a front-row seat to the Pier district. This is not the suburbs of Tampa — it is a city in its own right.
Our St. Petersburg office in Historic Kenwood is a 5-minute drive from downtown — north on MLK Jr Street or 1st Avenue N, a straight shot from the arts district. For members who live in the high-rise towers along Beach Drive or the Central Arts District, the commute to the office is shorter than a walk to the Dali Museum. Private parking is always available. The visit itself takes as long as the care requires.
The residents who choose downtown living tend to be people who have simplified their lives deliberately — they moved in, not out, because proximity and walkability matter. Concierge medicine is the same philosophy applied to healthcare: less friction, more access, fewer handoffs, and a physician who knows the whole picture. The Griffin model means 24/7 direct access to a real physician, same-day visits when the situation calls for it, and a Patient Care Coordinator who manages the relationship continuity between appointments.
Our board-certified internists see every downtown member as a long-term relationship, not an episodic transaction. Whether you are a decade-long St. Pete resident or one of the newer arrivals drawn to the city's momentum, the medicine we practice is the same: thorough, unhurried, and built on trust. Call (727) 516-7272 to begin a membership inquiry, or submit a request online — we typically respond within one business day.
