About Me

In my free time I enjoy spending time with family, watching movies, reading, cooking, and gardening.

Care Philosophy

It has been my goal to continue working as a family medicine physician in my home state! I chose family medicine because it gives me the opportunity every day to work with people of all ages and backgrounds, and to assist them through their medical journey. No single day is the same and gives me the chance to learn something new. I also feel that family medicine builds a strong relationship with the community based on trust and caring, which makes everyone feel supported and included. With my patients I want to build a supportive environment at my clinic in which we can address their needs and help them reach their health goals.

Area of Interest

One of my favorite things about family medicine is the ability to work with patients of all ages and backgrounds. Some areas of clinical interest that I would be able to assist with would include weight management, in office procedures including skin biopsies and placement/removal of birth control devices, sports medicine procedures including joint injections, osteopathic manipulative therapy, and assistance with mental health including anxiety and depression. While these are a few of my interests I am also able to assist with much more and I am always willing to learn!

Dr. Bennett is a good doctor. She listens and you don't feel rushed. She makes you feel at ease.

My experience was as soon as I checked in to Meritas Health clinic for my appointment I was treated with respect. I was not waiting over 5 minutes before my name was called or 5 minutes before my physician came to talk to me, so this was an amazing appointment process I couldn't ask for any more!

My first visit with Dr. Bennett and she was awesome. She listened to my concerns and immediately formulated a treatment plan. She was friendly and engaged. I am feeling good about my care with her. Highly recommend her!

She and I are new to each other. There is always a certain amount of nervousness on my end. I truly believe I have picked a doctor that cares! I am very HAPPY with my decision!

Dr. Bennett is very compassionate, caring and listens to your concerns. Doesn't undermine you and helps to make the best decision for my care. Didn’t belittle me. I like her very much.

Dr. Bennett was very kind and very helpful and informative. She listened very carefully to all my questions and was very professional. I think I like her.

My appointment as a new patient with Dr. Bennett was positive and refreshing. Dr. Bennett listened and asked questions pertaining to my ability to function with symptoms that plague my health every day. I have never had a doctor be so attentive and start a plan to improve my quality of life. She is a caring professional and l am happy to be under her care.

Dr. Bennett is a good listener, asks questions and spent the time to satisfy my questions and concerns. She has a very professional staff and clean facilities.

Yesterday was my first experience with Dr Bennett, and I was very happy with my visit. Dr Bennett was very personable and informative. She was very easy to talk to, and I felt that she took the time to answer my questions and explain things thoroughly. I would happily see her again.

Dr. Bennett is the 1st Dr. I have seen since relocating to Kansas City in the beginning of 2025. I am 74 years old and was worried that she would not be as thorough as the older Dr. I have had in the past, due to her being much younger than they were. I found her to be a compassionate Dr. who seemed very attentive to my issues, and had some good recommendations. I was also able to have a blood test right there at Meritas Health. I need more visits to be absolutely sure, but at this point, I am satisfied, and do recommend her.

03/15/2025

She sends out her advertisement everywhere, However, she doesn’t want to review my health concerns at all when I saw her.

03/14/2025

I enjoyed my 1st visit with Dr. Bennett. I felt comfortable and heard when explaining issues I been having. She explained things to me in a way that I was able to understand. Dr. Bennett is very kind and patient.

Great first appointment. I have found a Doctor who will listen and spend the time needed with you. Awesome experience.

02/25/2025

Loved my experience with Dr. Bennett. She was patient and answered all my questions. She didn't rush the appointment and made me feel very comfortable. She was very knowledgeable and made sure I was ok with the optio s for treatment and referrals She wanted to do.

I am very grateful having Dr. Bennett as my primary doctor. She is friendly and sweet person and she transmits me security and hope. Thank you Dr. Bennett!

I really like Payton Bennett DO being my health provider. She responds to emails in a timely manner. She listens, she is time appropriate when seeing her in the office setting. I hope she stays for awhile. Thank you Dr. Bennett.

Peyton listened to my concerns and was very helpful. I saw her because Dr. Michael Crim, my Primary doctor, was out of the office. She did not disappoint me. Peyton said she would share my visit with Dr. Crim which I appreciate. I would not hesitate to recommend Peyton Bennett.

Dr. Bennett was very pleasant and easy to speak with. She was very professional, listened to my concerns and addressed them all. I couldn't have asked for a better visit. Excellent Care!

12/23/2024

Very kind and informative. Since my previous doctor has retired, I'm happy to say Dr Bennett is my new physician.

12/14/2024

Dr. Bennett was ready to listen to my BIG list of concerns and immediately set up referrals to various specialists I needed to follow up with. I felt confident that she would be a great fit for me.

Came to Dr. Bennett to establish primary care and for a women’s wellness exam. And I’ll have to say, I was very disappointed. Never have I gone to a doctors office and they don’t check my vitals or even look into my ears and throat, especially as someone who is prone to sinus infections. I found her care to be very impersonal, rushed and not thorough, I was clearly just a number to her. Our very first visit was just to establish primary care. She was in the room for less than 5 mins, didnt ask me many health questions and defintely didn’t touch me. Just asked what I was looking for, I told her my needs and to establish primary care and that I hadn’t had a wellness exam in quite some time. She said I did not have to go to the gyno if I didnt want to because she also does womens wellness exams. And then she left the room. I found it unusual she didn’t get to know me, ask about my health history or even check vitals. I come back for my womens exam and she does not do a full wellness exam at all. Doesn’t check my breath sounds, look into my ears or throat NOTHING. Not only that, but in a wellness exam they check your breast and pelvis, and someone with my family history and since I EXPLICITLY told her I haven’t had an exam in years, I was shocked that a professional was skipping so many vital steps in making sure your patient is in good health. All I got was a look under the sheet a swab and sent on my way. I was clearly just a number to her and she only cared about getting to the next patient, and quite frankly not doing the job I am paying her to do. She sent me to get labs (which I also had to take time off from work to get) and didnt mention or go over them, to this day I dont even know what test were ran on my blood. I had to ask her about them, and she goes “oh yeah, they were fine.” Then tells me to just be active and don’t eat fast food………… Although I established primary care with Dr. Bennett, I will absolutely be looking elsewhere for my healthcare. People like myself have to jump through hoops to even get an appointment, take off work, spend so much money on insurance and healthcare. That when you finally get to the appointment you expect that when you finally get there, your provider cares enough to do their job! You want to make sure that you are being cared for by people who take their oath to give the best care possible seriously. I truly believe that if there were something to be wrong, Dr. Bennett would not catch because she’s not even doing the basic needs of care. I get better care from a school nurse than from a physician.

Very punctual,very helpful and understanding seems to be a awesome Dr.

I made a move to Dr. Peyton Bennett after having the same doctor for 5 years and not feeling heard with issues I was experiencing. From my first visit, I knew Dr. Bennett was a fit for me. She listened to my concerns, reviewed my chart and labs and immediately came up with a plan to get my health under control. I felt heard and continue to feel heard as we continue to tweak my drug regimen together. She wants me to have the best health possible which mean a good and happy life.
