AnMed Adds New Doctors to Network

The AnMed Health Physician Network added two new doctors’ offices and a new physician this summer.

Dr. Clifton W. Straughn joined the physician network in June. Dr. Straughn is a board-certified family medicine doctor with more than 26 years of experience. His new office, AnMed Health Clifton W. Straughn, M.D., is at 105 Buford Ave. in Anderson behind Windsor Place Shopping Center.

After a period working with Cancer Centers of the Carolinas, Dr. David Griffin returned to the physician network in July. Dr. Griffin, a board-certified gynecologic oncologist, has cared for Upstate women for nearly a decade. His new practice, AnMed Health Gynecologic Oncology, is in Suite 3100 of the Oglesby Center on the AnMed Health North Campus.

AnMed Health also welcomed a new bariatric surgeon in July. Dr. Elias Darido, a fellowship-trained weight loss surgeon, is accepting new patients at AnMed Health Obesity Care – Surgical Consultants. Dr. Darido replaces Dr. Blair Rowtiz, who moved to Chicago earlier this year to be closer to family. Dr. Darido specializes in minimally invasive weight loss surgery, performing laparoscopic gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy and adjustable gastric banding.
