Best Dentist I have ever been treated by. In almost every other dental office I've been to, the hygienist does 95% of the job and the dentist comes in to check at the end. However, Dr. Payne does the whole thing. She cleans, polishes, flouride treats, flosses - she is the only person who deals with you. Love that. And she is incredibly thorough. Our entire family of 6 goes there. We LOVE Dr. Payne!

She is very kind and explains what she is working on. My whole time there took a little longer than expected but she got me in within a day's notice so I can't complain!

Verified patient
I needed my teeth cleaned badly because I was overdue and not flossing regularly. Dr. Payne worked diligently and gently to greatly improve my teeth.
Excellent
great visit, as always! Love the new office!
My family has been going to Dr. Payne for about two years now, since she was at her Park Ave location. Her new office in Los Gatos is amazing and even has an area now where my kids can watch shows or play video games. Our family comes to her because she really cares, is always detailed with me and makes my kids comfortable during checkups & cleanings. My 10yo had a small cavity & was scared but Dr. Payne used Nitrous to help him relax & it worked. We have a dentist that our family will see for years to come.
Dr. Payne and her assistant are very friendly and welcoming when you come to the office. It is a very clean and efficiently run office. Dr. Payne took care of both of my sons with care and explanations that they understood.
I was so happy to find Dr. Payne's office. Most people have fear of going to the dentist. I was no different, but Dr. Payne really helped ease of fears. She has a gentle demeanor and a lovely bedside manner. I could tell she was genuinely interested in assessing my dental health. So, after first visit, i still continue seeing her for my dental care. I never wait long, her staff is very nice. I highly recommend her services to anyone seeking dental treatment.
Wonderful doctor who is very professional and knowledgable. She did a very thorough exam and cleaning and explained all as she worked. I would highly recommend Dr. Payne!
