“In my opinion He’s the best psychiatrist I’ve ever seen( and I’ve only seen him). He was very kind and compassionate in helping me with my situation from asking in depth questions to coming with a diagnosis on the spot. Another thing I liked was how welcoming he was, usually when you see any health care provider you get nervous about seeing them but with Jaylen it felt like I was talking to a friend I haven’t seen in a long time. It was a pleasure meeting him and I highly recommend him if you’re needing a psychiatrist. ”

“Never would’ve thought I would meet anyone as authentic as Jaylen. He’s very understanding of your situation that you’re dealing with and he came up with solutions instantly that helped me and broke it down step by step. Even though this was my first time speaking to a psychiatrist I didn’t feel overwhelmed or scared but I felt calm and relaxed when speaking to him. I highly recommend Dr.Payne. The best of the best!!”
