Dr. Armaghan Azad
Board Certified, Family Medicine, 16 years of experience
My name is Dr. Armaghan Azad (aka Dr. Armi) and I’m a double board-certified physician in the fields of Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine. I am also a certified health coach through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. My passion is to help you discover the BEST version of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally. 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? I have extensive experience working at a university-affiliated teaching hospital and have been practicing medicine for 17 years with special emphasis in ER/urgent care, Preventative Medicine, Lifestyle Medicine, Nutrition, Skincare, and Sleep Medicine. While I believe there is a role for pharmaceutical medications in treating many of our chronic diseases, the power of lifestyle choices are grossly underestimated. Most of the chronic diseases we face today are the direct result of our lifestyle choices and no amount of medications is going to provide a cure without making different choices. What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? As your primary care physician we work together to take your health back in your hands and get you feeling your best. My motto is “prevention is always better than the cure.” Health is not an overnight process, it’s a journey. We’ve been brainwashed to think that if we want to lose weight or get healthy, we have to make drastic changes overnight. This is simply not true. Making incremental changes often lead to a BIG transformation. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? In my spare time I love to cook using real, whole foods to entertain friends and family. I love traveling when I have time. I am a content writer for a monthly blog thru IIN where I write on different health topics. Last but not least, I love to share health and wellness tips on my IG social media @healthbydrarmi. It’s never too late to start living your best life and that starts with your health!

We are trusted by over 50,000 patients every month. Here's what they have to say.

I could not believe that I got an appointment for ADHD within hours. I had a terrible time trying to get an appointment with the group my insurance recommended. The health practitioner is knowledgeable and kind, and I feel like I'm getting both good physical and psychological support.

Alexis

My provider is great. Answers all of my questions before our visit ends. I originally used Circle Medical because I couldn’t get an appointment with a provider in person, but because of my experience I decided to keep Circle as my primary care provider.

Thalia

Convenient, the app is easy to use and navigate, I love my provider. Our meetings are efficient, and she's been able to assist me with health-related issues outside of what I sought out the app for. I absolutely want to keep using Circle Medical for many years to come and have recommended it to friends and family.

Savion

The app is an easy and efficient way to meet with knowledgable medical professionals and establish a care plan and I’ve had a very positive experience from the help provided to me.

Dominick

Setting things up was incredibly easy and stress-free. I love that the app uses my real name as opposed to what was legally given. And the app works really well, haven't had a single tech issue. Having this option for my appointments with my busy schedule is making my HRT treatment possible.

Alan

Quick, knowledgeable, and professional service. Easy to use and much, much faster than in person visits.

Patrick

Exceptional Experience! From easy and convenient scheduling to a great doctor experience!

Sonya

Circle Medical does a great job making health care easy and accessable. I especially appreciate my provider as she listens and cares about my needs.

Merna

I have ADHD and this format of meeting with providers is very ADHD friendly. It makes it easy to make appointments and the reminds and app are helpful.

Adalyn

My provider is absolutely amazing. Very compassionate, listens, provides feedback, and takes her time. I feel very comfortable and confident with my care.

Tara

Quick and easy especially if you're super-busy with life and work to make a appointment to go some where and see a doctor... This is a life changer for me.

Cale

My provider is so genuine and insightful and I truly get value from our sessions! It's extremely easy to set up, navigate and just hassle-free. No wait times, no sitting on hold with an office, no fighting traffic, and no hidden costs. I also like the responsiveness from the chat. Someone always responds and assists me with my questions like how to change pharmacies or reschedule my appointment.

Angel

The experience is a lot easier and quicker for me compared to driving to a doctors office and waiting and then talking to a doctor for a short amount of time.

Rosemary

Circle has been great! They are cost-effective, efficient and get me the care I need with a busy schedule!

Brittany

Opportunity for an assessment of my health when local medical wouldn’t see me for more than 6 months.

Arabella

The care and treatment plan I have received has resulted in life-altering changes. My provider has worked closely with me identifying the best diagnosis and treatment of my ADHD. I feel incredibly safe in her care and confident in her ability to look at me as a whole while treating one issue. The ease of use, appointment times, and telehealth options make getting much needed care easily.

Alisa

Amazing staff who are looking to do everything they can to help you with any problem you may have. I was able to get an appointment within a few days for my first consultation compared to a couple months with another service I used to be with. All around it was a great decision moving to Circle Medical, couldn’t be happier.

Gerald

My provider is the most helpful primary care physician I have ever had. Very easy to set and have appointments, very happy with the service.

Korbin

Because I felt very heard and wasn’t embarrassed or shamed for needing to look into ADD medication in my 30s.

Jewel

I can get appointments anytime I need them from the comfort of my home and my prescriptions are always filled really quick.

Valentina

Getting started and getting to help through Circle was almost effortless. As someone who struggles with mental health, this made it possible for me to take the steps necessary to get the help I needed.

Gilberto

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

Easy platform and scheduling, helpful especially when it’s hard to find mental health care.

Great experience and exceptional customer service! Made my experience so easy and manageable.

Terry

Nola

Very convenient, medical professionals are understanding and helpful in providing solutions

Luke

I’m a busy working parent. I love that I was able to get an appointment quickly with availability in the evening hours. The NP who evaluated me was thorough on intake/history and I was able to get much needed care. I’m excited that they will be able to provide my primary, preventative care too!

Tomas

Very easy platform to use, providers are knowledgable, easy to make appointments that fit in my busy schedule.

Madelyn

My provider at Circle Medical had to take time off for surgery. The transition to a new provider was flawless. I was apprecative of this as I needed a refill of my Rx. This organization of medical professionals continues to impress me.

Brielle

Well, Circle Medical has changed my life! I love Circle Medical because you have a plethora of providers available within a click of a button! Thank you!

Noah

Circle Medical did an excellent job in addressing my issues quickly and with the best customer service.

Mariam

It was amazingly fast to get an appointment compared to the wait times in my area for a mental health professional. The provider I am seeing is very personable and I feel like she understands me and always gives me opportunities for questions. I have never felt judged. I have used the chat support and received a response much faster than most doctors offices.

Aaden

Ease and simplicity of signing up, scheduling, communicating, and not having to waste time going to an office. Saves hours and hours of time per year.

Arthur

The app, and the providers have been a great deal of help to me! And the convenience is wonderful as well. I honestly can't ask for better help. I'm really on a path to getting better and stronger so thank you.
