Board Certified, Family Medicine, 11 years of experience
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? A primary care provider should be one that provides guidance and supervision in helping a patient achieve their healthcare goals with not only the necessary counseling but also guidance of treatment modalities that would work best for the patient. The relationship between physician and patient should be a collaboration and not just a one-way street. What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? The ability to treat multi-generational families with making an impact in their future wellbeing with focus on preventative medicine. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I love spending time with my husband and young children, as well as traveling and gardening.

I have really enjoyed my experience. I love my provider, everyone I've interacted with has been kind, and the whole process has been easy.

Jaiden

Easy to get appointments, provider is kind, very helpful and is committed to helping me. This app was there when my doctors ignored me for YEARS.

Ashley

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

The service and care my provider has provided for me since being a patient has been second to none! It's changed my life to be honest. Highly recommend Circle Medical!

Thomas

I knew I needed to get diagnosed but just too anxious to go out and seek a provider. The ease of online appointment has made me not cancel or miss appointments.

Averie

I have had a hard time with my primary care physician helping me explore ADHD treatment. I was not sure where else to turn. This was so easy and uses my insurance.

Adalynn

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

Keshawn

As far as I’m concerned, this is the future of healthcare. I’ve transitioned all of my primary care to Circle Medical as well as my ADHD management. I’m amazed at the weekend and off hour options, which are a life saver for a busy professional like myself. I recommend this service to anyone who is looking to get a PCP or evaluated for ADHD. Your customer service is top notch and I’ve never had an issue with insurance or my prescriptions. I’m so glad I found your company!

Quincy

The providers have been wonderful appointments are easy and always on time. The staff is quick and very responsive in chat.

Fernanda

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

TJ

Circle Medical is super-convenient, respectful of your time, and far superior to long waits and far-off scheduling with in-person doctors. I am super glad I discovered this.

Terrell

Ease of use, flexibility with schedule, and the provider was informative on the medical issue while delivering care with a nonbiased approach.

Christopher

Very good experience so far. My provider has been very wonderful -- very attentive and easy to talk to.

Joshua

My provider has been really attentive. When I reached out for customer support on what I thought were side effects of a new medication, I received replies promptly.

Shelby

My provider was EXTREMELY helpful and informative, and the entire process was just simple and quick.

Wesley

It is so difficult to access mental health care services right now especially for ADHD, so far I have received immediate and responsive care that has already improved my quality of life, thank you.

Eric

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

I found an amazing provider who has helped me more in the last few months than a team of specialists over the course of nearly a decade of care.

Valentin

Very easy to schedule appointments, communication and doctors notes are the best I’ve ever experienced. My provider is very easy to talk to and always reminds me he’s just a message away in case I ever need him.

Joshua

I have NEVER had healthcare that was this accessible. Thank you.

Melanie

So easy to work with and around my busy schedule. My provider is amazing and I am loving the medical care that I am receiving.

Asher

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.

Sarah

Great providers, amazing availability, and fast/friendly customer service all from the comfort of my own home.

Dayanara

It works, is easy to use, I think the app is very good. I appreciated the several reminders for my first phone call, and I felt that my provider was very professional. She explains things well, and I feel cared for.

Katie

The app makes everything really easy and both providers I've seen so far have been wonderful. I couldn't find any doctors in my area that weren't insanely expensive so this app has been a lifesaver!

Laurie

It's been a great platform so far. The response time and availability of the team have been the best.

TJ

Easy to book an appointment, huge selection of days and times and you can use different providers. Everyone is helpful and respectful.

Alicia

My provider was amazing. Very easy to talk to. The app was also really good.

Guillermo

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

Jodi

Very convenient, and knowledgeable providers. I need monthly appointments with my current prescriptions. My provider is friendly and makes the process a breeze. I don’t have to leave home.

Virginia

I love my provider. He is very thorough and is easy to get ahold of.

Kyle

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

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

I love having a primary care provider to work with me on getting the correct medication needed to function. I love the convenience of the telehealth appointments as well.

Tiffani

Extremely responsive to concerns, rapid response to customer service issues.

Penny

My provider was amazing. She listened to what I had to say, she explained everything in detail so I understood, and she truly cared about me.

Kathy

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

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

This is convenient. The providers that I have interacted with have been, helpful, patient and kind. I feel like a priority with Circle Medical.
