It’s where he has lived, caught up with colleagues, and happily greeted patients – for more than 20 years. “I want my patients to be comfortable with me, to know I’m going to treat them well,” Dr. Payha said. “My motto has always been: Be kind.” At AHN Hempfi eld and Forbes hospitals, Dr. Payha provides minimally invasive surgery for gallbladders and hernia, and removes breast tumors, skins lesions, and cysts. He also teaches Forbes doctors-in-training to treat their patients like friends. He treats his own patients like family, encouraging them to get their mammograms and colonoscopies. His compassion extends to caring for at-risk populations through the AHN Center for Inclusion Health. “A new hospital like AHN Hempfi eld is a great idea, because it will allow people in Greensburg to choose a convenient hospital in the AHN network,” he said.
