REDMOND W. PAYNE, M.D.
Redmond W. Payne, M.D., whose office is in the new Chronicle building, San Francisco, was born in Marin county, California, in 1865, the son of S. W. Payne, who was one of the pioneer settlers of this State, coming here in 1850 from Ohio, crossing the plains by the orthodox means of transportation, the ox team. He was for many years engaged in stock-raising in Marin county, and now lives in Santa Cruz county, where he has retired from active business, and resides on his fruit ranch near Santa Cruz. Redmond received his early education in the public schools of Santa Cruz county, and later graduated at the high school in 1883. He continued his studies under private instructors for about two years. He commenced the study of medicine in 1885, entering the medical department of the University of California in 1886, which he attended for one year. In 1887 he entered the Cooper Medical College, and graduated at that institution in 1889, receiving his degree as Doctor of Medicine. Dr. Payne at once entered into private practice in San Francisco. In 1890 he took a post-graduate course at the medical department of the University of California, receiving a certificate from that institution as a post-graduate. Dr. Payne is now assistant at the medical clinic of the Cooper Medical College, and a member of the State Medical Society of California, and of the County Medical Society of San Francisco. He has already built up a satisfactory practice thus far in San Francisco.
