I'm very grateful for getting the opportunity to see Dr. Payne. It's obvious that he truly cares for his patients and that is a very rare thing in this day and age. Nobody else could figure out what was wrong with me, but Dr. Payne confirmed my diagnosis right away and got me feeling back to my self again within a week. Thank You Dr. Payne!

I read the two comments on here about Dr. Payne and was a little skeptical because I've had bad luck with doctors in the past. I've seen several other Pulmonologists in the state of Michigan for my breathing problems, none of who gave me any sense of hope. This all changed when I met Dr. Payne. I was amazed at his knowledge, competence, compassion, and diagnostic abilities as a physician. I was so impressed with what he knew not only about the lungs, but the rest of my health ailments as well. I'll never be able to thank him enough!!

Before going to Dr. Payne, I had seen several other lung doctors' in northern Michigan. None of them could come up with an accurate diagnosis. Dr. Payne immediately nailed down what was wrong with me and I haven't felt this good in 15 years. I've never seen such dedication to any profession before in my life. Hands down, by far the best physician in the state of Michigan!!

This guy is the real deal! I went and saw three Pulmonologists in Traverse City and none of them could diagnose what was wrong with me. Not to menti ...

Dr. Payne is the pinnacle of perfection and the best pysician I've ever seen. He is a genius in all aspects of medicine, and is extremely knowledgeable. Whenever I leave his office, I'm astounded at what a wondeful job he does. He not only helps me with my breathing problems, but also treats every other health issue I've ever had. He provides an accurate diagnosis for everything I've ever had wrong with me. He goes the extra mile with his patients, and is a genuinely caring individual. It is physicians like Dr. Payne that truly make a difference. Unfortunately, there aren't very many like him out there and I'll be devastated when he retires.
