He did my knee replacements and helped me understand what’s going on with the first replacement since it’s giving me and issue and explained to me in terms a nonmedical person could understand.

Dr. Payne quickly identified my problem and assured me that after 6 to 8 weeks, my strain would likely heal.

Was diagnosed and treated for a frozen shoulder by Dr. Payne. One month following shoulder manipulation surgery and physical therapy, I’m already back swinging a golf club again. Highly trust and recommend Dr. Payne and Tidewater Orthopedics to anyone who’s experiencing issues with their shoulders.

Excellent bedside manner, listens attentively and explains the diagnosis and care plan patiently in terms easily understood. He tries to find non-invasive solutions before recommending surgery. A great doctor.
