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 is wonderful!

I think Dr Payne is an excellent doctor, thinks ahead for preventive things, and has my best care in the top of her mind. She also was reassuring during the exam to make you feel comfortable. I wish she had delivered my babies

Dr Payne is most knowledgeable provided I have seen, she listens and answers questions with facts and always has information to back it up. She never rushes appointments and always makes sure all my questions and concerns are answered before moving on.

Dr.Payne is an exceptional physician. She is the best of the best- she is able to listen, synthesize, and communicate with empathy and thoroughness that I rarely see in my healthcare providers. One of the few who seems to have avoided the burnout seen so often in healthcare today.

Dr. Susan Payne is the best provider you could possibly get. The rest of the clinic staff is lacking. I have been a patient of Providence Women's Clinic for 25 years and it is sad to see the decline in customer service. However, I would never change providers because Dr. Payne is worth the trouble of dealing with her staff.

Dr Payne is amazing! She's caring & really listens to her patients, recommending care as needed. I cannot say enough about Dr Payne's demeanor & care - she has been the only reason I've received gynecological care.
