Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Payne has an extensive background in treating mental disorders. He is very good at diagnosing and prescribing effective treatments. After years of seeking treatment I was referred to Dr. Payne who found the perfect medication to treat my mental health problems. Sometimes you have to be a little bit assertive to be sure he addresses all of your concerns but he does listen and is very thorough in working with you to come up with an effective treatment plan.

Dr. Payne really helped a family member who was seriously mentally ill. He took the time and had the knowledge base to quickly help get her back to the person we love. Thank you Dr. Payne!

Dr. Payne is an excellent doctor. His unique skills and exceptional abilities are key to his success with his patients. He will admit when necessary however his readmission rate is extremely low. Truly a genius in his field. His patients who were once very ill have become extremely high functioning.
