Dr. Griffin Fitzhugh Munro, M.D. is a fictional character on the ABC soap opera, General Hospital. He is the son of the late mobster Duke Lavery and his old flame, the late Margaret Munro.

It was announced that he would be debuting during the first week of February.
He made his first appearance on February 5, 2016.
On February 5, 2019, rumors began swirling around that Cohen would soon exit GH, but nothing was officially confirmed.
He is a friend of Dr. Lucas Jones from med school.

On August 3-4, Claudette and Griffin unexpectedly reunited with each other at General Hospital. It was also revealed that Claudette was and is still in love with Griffin and he is in love with her at the time.
Dr. Griffin Munro first arrived in Port Charles in February 2016, having taken over the neurosurgery position vacated by Patrick Drake. After encountering Sonny Corinthos in the hospital chapel, he is soon assigned to become his doctor and discovers that Corinthos has been faking his paralysis for some time. After imploring Corinthos to come clean to his loved ones, Sonny tells Griffin that he needs for his enemies to see him as weak. Griffin agrees to Sonny's request under the condition that Sonny keep him up to date on his progress.
Following the accidental shooting of Kiki Jerome, the truth about Sonny's health comes to light, and Griffin ends up apologizing to Sonny's wife, Carly Corinthos for concealing the truth. Griffin is also tasked with informing Kiki's mother, Ava Jerome and Franco that Kiki may have limited mobility as the result of her shooting.

Griffin is also on hand to treat Tracy Quartermaine after she suffers a seizure at The Floating Rib.

Later in 2016, it was revealed that Dr. Munro is no longer a suspect in the deaths of patients at the hospital.
He is also eventually revealed to be the man that Nathan's ex wife Claudette cheated on him with and that Nathan shot. On January 19, 2017, during Nathan and Maxie's wedding, Griffin gets a beat down from Valentin after he declaring he doesn't deserve his daughter Charlotte before being saved by Anna.
