The ECMO was known to be a last chance at life.

I do believe God heard their prayers.

Brian Payne, M.D., Cardiologist Cardiology Consultants

Meet Dr. Payne What led you to become a doctor?

Both of my parents were in the health care profession.

I enjoyed science early on, and I have always enjoyed interacting with people. I particularly enjoy the diversity of cardiology as a field of medicine.

What about your line of work do you find most rewarding?

When I see somebody’s quality of life improve because of counseling and improvement of lifestyle, medical treatment, or after cardiac interventions – that’s incredibly rewarding.

How would a patient describe you?

I’m easy to talk to and always willing to explain medical issues in depth.

What are you looking forward to about living on the Gulf Coast?

My wife, Meghan, and I are still getting settled, but we’re looking forward to taking advantage of everything the water has to offer. Kayaking and paddle boarding are two sports we plan to try out this spring.
