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!

My provider was very kind and helpful. She listened to my needs and helped to appropriately diagnose me. I feel very confident in her as a provider.

Souvya

I like the simplicity and consistency of interaction with the app; scheduling appointments and chatting without the nonsense back and forth missed phone calls and voicemails is a tremendous relief.

Steven

Prior to Circle Medical, I struggled for months as I visited doctor after doctor for an ADD diagnosis, just to be ignored and misdiagnosed because none of them had researched ADD in women. Then, I found Circle, and was diagnosed and treated within days. The treatment worked, and my life has improved drastically.

April

My provider was extremely nice and understanding, and I need that after the terrible care I’ve gotten in my tiny town.

Kay

The portal was really easy to use, registration was simple, and I was quickly matched with a provider.

Aliyah

I’m very likely to recommend Circle Medical because of the progress that I have made. My provider has made it possible for me to accept and understand my ADHD with the upmost positivity and total honesty. I have never been able to love and accept myself till now.

Alexus

I like all three providers I have interacted with on Circle Medical. They are friendly and easy to talk with.

Ciara

Circle Medical is easy to use and accepts a lot of insurances. I felt like my provider cared about me and we have begun to form a relationship. In regular offices I always feel rushed or unheard but somehow Circle Medical feels more personal. Requesting a refill is easy and you can check on the status.

Anna

Circle Medical appealed to me because they clearly explain the process from start to finish on their website. The FAQ was particularly helpful in understanding how the tele-medicine approach works, and what I needed to do on my end. The app is user friendly, it was straightforward to set-up my account. I like that all of the necessary actions can be done via the app. The intake interview went smoothly with my health care provider. She was professional, polite and thorough. I feel that I received an accurate evaluation.

So fast and flexible getting an appointment. As someone with ADHD and anxiety looking for a doctor is a daunting task and keeps you from getting the care you need. They also actually listen to you and what’s bothering you, working with you to come up with the best course of action.
