Northeast Georgia Physicians Group now offers concierge medicine | Features

A membership fee of $1,600 is required to become a Concierge Medicine member, according to the NGPG press release.

According to the release, Concierge Care allows doctors to pay special attention to patients’ needs, problems and health questions. Patients will be provided with a doctor’s mobile phone number, shortened waiting times at the clinic, private waiting areas with refreshments and coordinated hospital care.

This new care will be provided by Dr. Margaret Grifa, MD, who has over 15 years of experience in family medicine.

“I went to the University of Georgia. My parents live in Hall County and my three siblings live nearby,” Griffa said. “I wanted my children to grow up to be just like me, so I’m excited to be back home and bringing a new type of care to our community.”

Grifa received her medical degree from the Georgia Medical School in Augusta and completed her residency at the Marshall University Family Practice in Huntington, West Virginia.
