About David Griffin
I’m pleased to introduce myself as the newest member of the Idaho Skin Institute team. I will be offering general dermatology and Mohs Micrographic surgery services at our Burley and Twin Falls locations. As a graduate of Minico High School, returning home to serve the people of southern Idaho is a great honor for me and my family.
After graduating from Brigham Young University I completed medical school at the University of Washington through the WWAMI program, with a strong focus on rural and community-based care. I stayed in Idaho for my medical internship at the Boise VA Medical Center before moving to central Wisconsin to complete my dermatology residency at the Marshfield Clinic—a rural health system that closely mirrors the patient population of southern Idaho.
Most recently, I completed a fellowship in Micrographic Surgery and Dermatologic Oncology at the University of Missouri under the direction of Dr. Nkanyezi Ferguson. This robust, ACGME-accredited training program emphasized the management of high-risk skin cancers in medically complex patients, including those who are post-transplant. My training included multidisciplinary collaboration with otolaryngology, facial plastic surgery, oculoplastics, and oncology.
My clinical interests include:
· High-risk and complex cutaneous oncology
· Mohs micrographic surgery
· Facial reconstruction following skin cancer removal
· Skin cancer prevention and treatment
Outside of work, my wife and I are looking forward to raising our four children on my family’s farm. We enjoy skiing, biking, and exploring Idaho’s incredible outdoors. We feel deeply grateful for the opportunity to return home and serve this community.
