Board Certified, Family Medicine, 5 years of experience
What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? I am passionate about helping people and making a positive difference in their lives. I am able to create a personal lasting relationship and use that to provide the help and guidance they need. Using these personal relationships I can tailor treatment plans to them, inspire them and educate them on their health and wellbeing. 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 physician is to provide preventative care, help maintain a healthy lifestyle and most importantly advocate for the patient. Primary care physicians also treat a variety of medical illnesses and provide guidance so that the patient can receive the best possible care for their ailments. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? My spare time is spent with my wife and 3 kids ages 5, 3 and 2 months. When I manage to get some time to myself, I enjoy working out, playing tennis and watching sports.

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

The practitioners are very knowledgeable, trustworthy, understanding, kind & they listen! I have been using Circle Medical for almost a year & I highly recommend it! :-)

Rosemary

I recommend Circle Medical because there’s no other app that actually just goes straight to the point in helping your needs; that being needing ADHD diagnosis or anything else that has to do with with your physical and mental health. There are no complications with speaking with the Circle Medical Team let alone any problems period.

Roxane

Very easy to use and great providers. Mine is very personable and helpful.

Jack

Excellent providers on staff. The patient coordinator team is fantastic as well. I def recommend. I am so happy with Circle Medical provider's services.

Katherine

My provider on Circle Medical is the first I’ve ever had that makes me feel heard and taken care of.

Heaven

Everything about the service and the people have been great. Always on time, nice to speak with, and they answer every question

Anika

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 one I chose is absolutely the right fit and has worked with me to find the correct dosage of medication.

Sandoval

Informed, polite, and consistent staff, operating under an obviously organized system to provide quality care.

Landen

I have recommended to several friends. The process, UI, and providers are very quick and caring. It is perhaps the easiest to use system I’ve ever seen. I highly highly recommend the organization.

Zeke

I love my provider and the app. This all made it really easy to take care of myself and my body again. I also love that every provider is LGBTQ affirming and it makes a big difference.

Patricia

Flexible appointment times, speedy service through the chat interface. Helpful and friendly providers.

Kaylie

Extremely convenient! The provider I had was extremely empathetic, thorough, and listened. No more worrying about finding time to drive to the doctors.

Oliver

They accepted my insurance, easy to schedule an appointment, easy to communicate with my doctor and they have been helping me with my health in the comfort of my home.

MJ

I've had a great experience with this service. The provider is friendly welcoming understanding. The process is very easy.

Damon

Best and easiest onboarding to start out and schedule. The provider was so amazing and the best I have had. Asked questions others have not. Customer service via chat was great as well. Fast and efficient. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Cassidy

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

I have felt heard, believed and taken care of by my provider. I am so happy with telehealth and having access to a wonderful provider through Circle Medical.

Giuliana

Circle Medical is a game changer for me and my health care. Phenomenal service.

Haley

Booking an appointment was incredibly easy. I receive quality care, quickly. That's all I ever wanted!

Samson

I love my doctor, she is so helpful, listens to me and we both come to an agreement which is incredible. I have found in my own experience and hearing others that so many doctors don't work with their patients and my doctor does. The app is also super easy to use and every time I have had a problem I get an answer right away. Thank you!

Megan

I already recommended it to some friends. I love going through you guys. Most caring provider I have ever had. She actually listens to me and makes sure I am well taken care of. Absolutely would recommend you to everyone. Such a quick and easy way to get in touch with some very kind and caring providers. You are the best!

Kirstie

I referred a friend just yesterday. The reason why is I went through 5 other similar companies before I found this one that checks every box plus extra credit.

Rayan

I recommend Circle Medical to everyone. Before it would take 6 months to make an appointment, then I'd have to take a day off work, it would take 4 hours to go through and see the doc. Between driving there, checking in, waiting in the big waiting room, then the small waiting room, seeing the MA then finally the doc, it would be a huge day-eating event. Circle Medical makes it so easy! I don't need to take a day off work, no waiting in waiting rooms, same day appointments, you can't beat it!

Rodolfo

I found the medical expertise to be fantastic! I've been treated by three different providers, all of whom were very caring. They take their time, you never feel rushed. They all have made me feel as I I was their only patient to care for. Truly a great organization of medical professionals. Thank you!

Karlie

My provider was fantastic and very nice. I felt relaxed in my home environment and was able to be truthful without the fear and anxiety I get in a doctor's office.

Arnav

I receive a higher level of interaction and care from my provider at Circle than I did from the PCP I had for many years at another clinic. I feel like I have an advocate in my health journey.

Stephen

I’ve seen three different providers, both in Florida and now in Massachusetts (we moved), and I have been very pleased with their professionalism, knowledge and compassion.

Joelle

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

Great providers and awesome response team — even during after hours. Overall, Circle Medical is a wonderfully committed healthcare provider, that goes the extra mile for their patients.

Brayan

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

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.

Sierra

Easy to schedule appointments, the chat is super responsive, and everyone I’ve talked to is friendly and helpful.

Pando

I absolutely love my provider. I have seen many doctors in the past, but she was the first who actually listened, understood, and gave me hope.

Noah

I have had a wonderful experience with Circle Medical! As a business owner and busy mom, my time is extremely limited and the process of scheduling an appointment and speaking with a provider is seamless, fast and easy. My provider is an excellent and extremely thorough provider and the treatment that I have received from her over the past 18+ months has tremendously improved my quality and enjoyment of life. Thank you! Also glad to hear that you are opening clinics as well for times when an in-person visit is needed!

Hillary

I love the provider I have been seeing she is absolutely lovely and very informative. She actually cares and we have developed a great relationship, better than any doctor I have met with over the years in person. The process of setting everything up in the app was fairly quick and easy for me and when I had an issue it was quickly addressed within the chat. I would absolutely recommend Circle Medical and I have even recommended it to a friend.

Philip

It's so easy to make appointments, the messaging feature makes help SO accessible, and the quality of the providers are top notch. It's such a relief to be able to schedule an appointment the day I need it. I always feel so heard and so cared for.

Quinn

Absolutely perfect. Extremely professional visits, always on time and no front desk staff or traffic!!! How can you beat this?

Paula

My provider was great! Very friendly and made me feel comfortable talking about some uncomfortable parts of my life.

Cara

Finding a good and reliable remote healthcare provider to diagnose and treat ADHD is extremely difficult. Circle Medical has made this process easy for me and I am thankful I chose Circle Medical.
