What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? Facilitating the impact and privilege of medical expertise to deliver high quality patient-centered healthcare. Systematically approaching care using up-to-date evidence based medicine and innovative technological advances valuing patients, increasing access, and establishing trust and positive patients rapports. In your opinion, what should be the role of a primary care provider for a patient, taking into account both physical health and behavioral health needs? The role of a primary care provider for a patient should be comprehensive and holistic. It is important for primary care providers to understand the interdependence of physical health and behavioral health needs, utilizing and optimizing interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary teams and resources to ensure healthcare needs are met. Within their scope of practice and specific practice style, primary care providers are equipped to manage both physical health and behavioral health needs, referring to specialty care as indicated per each patient’s customized care plan and presenting symptoms. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I am an avid reader and enjoy American authors, such as Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Robert Greene. I also love to cook and bake, and enjoy learning new low-carb, low-calorie healthy alternative recipes. Lastly, I recently started taking Italian lessons, so that I can communicate better with my in-laws; they only half understand my conversational Spanish.

It’s very easy to use and my practitioner is very attentive, responsive, and easy to talk to.

Corey

My provider is great, easy to talk to, and addressed my concerns, tried a different approach to medication and it’s the first time ever it’s really worked for me.

Kris

Quick, kind and professional in communicating with me.

Jerry

This was my first experience using something like this and the entire process was very helpful. The staff responded promptly when I had questions and I absolutely love my provider. I was very nervous about the process but she made me feel comfortable and helped me feel like I wasn’t alone. I am so happy I found Circle Medical

Asia

My provider really listens and understands my issues.

Keli

My provider is excellent. She is so personable and remembers me. It is easy to use and appointments are available both early or late in the day.

Jane

The convenience is amazing. I can always find an appointment with the same person at a time that works best for my schedule. Also, I love the ability to text questions whenever I want. I get answers within the same day. Sometimes in an hour. It feels like a concierge service. I can call whenever I want. Make an appointment when I want, and get quick answers to all of my questions.

Seamus

This service saves me hours a month waiting in a doctors office, driving to and from. This is time I get to be home with my family. My provider at Circle Medical is not only friendly but extremely knowledgeable.

Mario

I’ve used several online platforms for various medical needs over the last few years, and Circle has been the most comprehensive, as well as pairing me with an excellent provider who actually listens to my issues and concerns as well as taking into consideration what I think would work for me, and not just putting me on random medications to see what may or may not work. I felt listened to and respected, and believe my provider actually wants to help instead of just getting paid and speeding through our appointment.

Denisse

Employees are easy to follow along in conversations. This site helped me understand myself better. It was easy to get treated without anxiety or feeling overwhelmed from in person contact getting in the way.

Valerie

Great service, always gets the results you want and need, full team always ready to answer your questions in-depth. The willingness to just help is truly amazing.

Leticia

I always feel heard and comfortable during my appointments.

Marvin

I love my primary care, I have been finally taking care of my health and they have given me the tools for it. I love ease of the app and the assistance from care coordinators.

Layne

I’ve had an amazing experience. I liked how I was able to read up on the providers to find the right fit for me. The provider I chose is absolutely the right fit and has worked with me to find the correct dosage of medication.

Roberto

My provider is so sweet and helpful and listens, and any time I have an issue I can send a message and within the day someone with respond with help. Very happy with this app.

Giancarlo

Everything works so smoothly! Right from home or work. You don’t have to worry about being late because of traffic.

Sonya

As someone who has ADHD, simply setting up an account on the site was so easy. You can tell that this was made with neurodivergent people in mind. Things are just SIMPLE.

Ryan

Circle Medical has been absolutely amazing to me. I have been a patient at Circle Medical for about 7 months now and the experience has just been awesome. From day 1 I have been welcomed with open arms. I do video visits right in the comfort of my own home, how convenient is that? My provider is awesome, so sweet and comforting and motivating.

Ronisha

I’ve been through a few online doctors and psychiatrists and Circle has provided the most professional providers I’ve encountered. They truly care about their patients. The app is also easily navigated and has multiple options of care!

Ashlynn

Very friendly and knowledgeable, everyone I have spoke has gone above and beyond to help me.

Bill

It was easy to use. The provider was extremely attentive, and actually listened. Coming from a primary care office that had terrible client service, Circle Medical was really a breath of fresh air. Thank you to this team for helping me get the treatment I need.

Malik

My provider is quite possibly the best most personable doctor I've ever had the pleasure of speaking with!

Clay

Providers make me feel seen, heard, and validated in my adversities and experience. The accessibility is huge and a life saver. It’s so hard to have the courage to seek help for something you believe you struggle with but have been dismissed and shot down before when you have tried to seek out help in the past. Having the option to be assessed virtually saved my life and has completely changed me for the better.

Autumn

Exceptional care from Day 1 all the way through current treatment. Couldn’t ask for a better service.

Rory

I like the flexibility of virtual appointments.

Amanda

My primary care providers were a half hour away so I’d have to take 2 hours off work just to visit then. Being able to see a provider virtually on Circle Medical saves me a lot of time

Mark

I get to decide my provider. Tons of appointments that are days away instead of weeks. Well-designed app. Medical/appointment notes are all in one location instead of spread around or buried. Everything got done without any bumps or pushback or bs. I've never *ever* had such a painless experience.

Kate

This system, the efficiency, and care behind it is the best that I have come across. I have been uncomfortable addressing issues like ADD and ADHD as an adult, so I put this off for years. My provider has already helped in 2 sessions and I started my prescription within days. I have to say, I am already feeling better simply taking the initial steps. A big thanks to this team!

Madalynn

Excellent service. Easy to navigate. Connections to professional staff that have helped me on multiple occasions.

Felipe

Convenience, professional, confident. They are really doing a good job of taking care of me.

Rick

This is the first practice in over a decade where I actually felt heard. Advocating for yourself can be hard when you’ve had other practitioners who are dismissive and condescending. This practice is the complete opposite and a much needed breath of fresh air.

Yolanda

Circle has been great for a busy, young, always-moving-around individual like myself and many other young professionals. Finding a primary care provider in a new city has always been a needlessly difficult task.

Devan

Circle Medical works around my crazy life. My meetings are fast but thorough and professional and with my insurance it's very affordable.

Ari

The provider I spoke with was very knowledgeable and listened to me. She explained things well and made me comfortable.

Carolina

Always available, always on time, incredible care providers.

Lisa

Provider very punctual, efficient, and informative. Easy to use. Helpful for my needs.

Jodi

My provider is awesome. She is always on time and prepared for my appointments. She is patient, listens to my concerns, and provides excellent care. The app is super easy to use and helps me keep track of my appointments and medical history. Will definitely recommend!

Chace

The provider was prompt, understanding, and overall wonderful.

Jenn

My provider is simply awesome and everything has been easy and simple from setting appointments and getting referrals. I’m very happy that I found Circle Medical.

Daphne

My provider has been very helpful in helping me find the right treatment. She is patient and through. The platform is user-friendly and easy to use.
