Board Certified, Family Medicine, 21 years of experience
Tell us what makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider. The opportunity to explore a person's potential for complete healing, working together as a team, excites me. I am passionate about creatively educating my patients and providing customized health counseling that facilitates an enjoyable, self-sufficient healing journey. 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? As a PCP, I believe in serving as my patients' holistic health educator and professional friend. This includes listening attentively to their health concerns, then performing a thoroughly efficient evaluation so I can provide them with the wisest health guidance available to them. My goal is to facilitate their ability to function optimally in life. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I love to learn, primarily through reading & writing. I love to stay physically active (e.g., dancing) & making music. I also love learning to care for all animals, including dogs. Last but not at all least, I love spending quality time with my friends and family.

Wonderful medical treatment who take their time to listen and provide feedback This makes it so easy for a full time working single parent or mother like myself with all that I have to do. This makes life a little easier not having to drive to the doctor every time I need a medication refill.

Joannie

Circle Medical made accessing care easy. Sometimes it is hard to reach out for help, and Circle Medical made it easy for me to find a remote provider. From the beginning I felt respected, listened to, and cared for.

Cossna

Very convenient. I was shocked that I could get inexpensive mental health services so quickly. Very pleased.

Keshawn

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

Fast and clear appointment and scheduling process. Knowledgeable providers. Responsive support staff.

Immanuel

My provider is very attentive and always asks me the right questions that fit my issues. I love the communication, the whole team has even if its not my provider, someone is always there to help me when I have questions! 10/10!

Maddie

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

Because the doctors are very professional and also they have compassion unlike others in the past

Jared

They really understood and quickly diagnosed me and got me the treatment I needed, thanks guys!

Santino

An extremely caring company, very responsive and went above and beyond when I was in crisis. Cannot recommend them enough!! Keep up the great work.

Zayne

I felt heard. I felt educated by the provider. There’s so much stigma and such a shortage of psychiatrists, I felt alone and judged, but Circle was different.

Debbie

Honestly my provider has been vastly more concerned about my needs than any doctor I've been too before, and I don't even have to leave my house. This has been an absolutely amazing medical experience.

Warren

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

Provider was very nice, attentive, she listed to me and i am very satified.

Laura

I’ve never had any issues with the app or my provider. My provider is very thorough and pleasant to talk to. The app is well designed and never buggy. Responses are fast and easy to navigate with the care staff. Circle is a life saver for me as a trans person. I’m so thankful to have found you all!

Kymani

I work all day and I have to take time off of work to visit the doctor. This is so much more convenient.

Eleanor

I have already recommended it to many people. I’m a college student and my university health center has several barriers that make it almost impossible for anyone to afford the services required to get ADHD treatment through them, even with insurance. Circle Medical is convenient and being an app with reminders that I can call from anywhere makes it helpful to remember and make appointments.

Kyle

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

Felipe

The staff that looks out for me...cares for me! I feel they have a very genuine concern for my wellbeing! That means the world to me. It's not just a quick face-time chat, or that feeling of ever being rushed, I truly feel my provider, who's been with me for some time now, actually cares about my health and how best to keep me in the great shape I am now!

Katie

Great doctors, great customer support, prescription is sent to my pharmacy electronically, payments are done internal (no third parties), easy and simple.

Dendra

Very professional and non-judgmental. System is very easy to use.

Lindsey

My provider…she is amazing. Also the support team for reminders, scheduling and questions. Wonderful experience!

Carl

I have struggled for years with my health issues, but always ran into barriers in getting affordable treatment. With Circle Medical, I saw a provider, received a diagnoses, and am already on treatment. All within a few days! They listen and also make getting help so easy.

Amber

Ease of care, excellent provider who listened to my concerns, video apts from home on the weekend which makes it so much easier to have an appointment.

Annalise

They are quick, professional, and responsive by app. They also take my insurance — what more can I ask for?

Sharon

Amazing care with exceptional convenience! Telehealth should be much more mainstream. I'm very glad to have found Circle Medical.

Kimberly

Wonderful care providers, lots of appointments available at convenient times, great technology to make it all work seamlessly.

Christian

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

So easy and EXCELLENT providers. Have been so very thankful for this service. It’s truly improved my life.

Naima

Quick, simple new patient forms and insurance info. Quick access. Great connection and no technology troubles!

Lorena

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.

Cloe

Circle Medical has ALWAYS helped me solve whatever health issue I’ve brought to them! There has never been a time I’ve left an appointment dissatisfied. As a fat individual with preexisting health issues, it is usually hard to find medical providers that actually listen to what I have to say rather than attributing everything to weight. It feels amazing to be heard and validated!

Boston

Convenience. Flexible appointment times and helpful physicians. There’s always someone available to assist if I have an issue with my prescription or pharmacy.

Rianna

Very professional service. I was able to be seen right away and there was complete follow up with my prescription. Thank you!

Shane

I have had nothing but a good experience with my provider. I have been able to get the help I need and have been able to regain control of my life.

Owla

Easy to schedule appts, easy to use the app, got the care I needed quickly, friendly providers, quality care.

Indigo

Very easy to schedule and wonderful provider who listens to my concerns.

Greg

Circle Medical was able to get me the help and care I needed when I needed it most. Local doctors and health services were too booked to be able to help me soon enough. Circle got me connected with health professionals quickly and with ease. Quite simply, Circle saved my life.

Reese

The provider was extremely kind and thorough, the app is very easy to use, and I had no problems picking up my prescription.

Carlo

I love my provider. She is always on time, very knowledgeable about the medications and my condition and always answers all my questions.
