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's role should be to treat the whole person, to help patients to achieve better overall physical and mental health through optimization of preventative medicine and up to date medical knowledge. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I am originally from Montane, now living in Buffalo, NY. In my spare time I love to read, hike and camp with my husband and two dogs.

Don't take our word for it.

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

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

Appointment availability. I cannot get an in-person appointment in my city for 6 weeks. This app allowed me to connect with a medical professional the next day. (Same-day was available as well.) And professionalism. I felt that in my two appointments I was treated with respect, not judged, and I was able to express my issues and thoughts to someone who was actually listening.

Craig

Easy, fast booking, respectful treatment, great documentation and communication. My provider listens to me, takes my input into account and treats me like an equal, not like an annoyance. Can't recommend enough, A+++++

Tim

The provider was very professional and I felt comfortable with the video appointment setting. Also, each appointment was punctual with no wait time.

Kash

My provider is honestly the best I have ever had the pleasure of seeing. Her “bedside manner” and the amount of care and concern she has for her patients (and patients as real humans, not just numbers) is beyond compare.

Orlando

My provider was excellent. She was very knowledgeable and listened to me, she made me feel like me & what I'm going through matters. Circle Medical has excellent providers. Plus the customer service/patient care reps are great. I chatted with 2 and they were able to assist me in a timely fashion. I already booked my next appointment. I'm so happy that I chose Circle Medical.

Ashley

Sincere and caring staff! Excellent communication.

Stewart

My provider is the best! And Circle Medical is very convenient. I was neglecting my health before I knew about Circle because I never felt like going to the doctors, but Circle has changed my life!

Sonny

I so appreciate the provider who is treating me. She is professional and caring. The app is easy. It has been a really good experience.

Miles

After struggling with finding a doctor and navigating appointment management systems and nebulous cost expectations, Circle was a breath of fresh air that gave me a clear path towards getting care and getting everything else out of the way.

Tobias

Always professional, always wise, always goes above and beyond!

Oscar

Circle Medical works around my crazy life. My meetings are fast but thorough and professional and with my insurance it's very affordable.

Ari

Everyone has been absolutely wonderful to work with. Genuine, resolves my concerns and intelligent. Thank you!

Alex

Very accessible healthcare that strives to meet patients where they're at. Love my provider and always have the option to see other providers when she's not available.

Konner

They have been beyond helpful. All of the staff have been kind and considerate and always get back to me in a timely manner. They have helped so much. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Red

Everything about using Circle Medical has been great! My provider is amazing and always happy to help with any questions or concerns I have. The administration staff is also very helpful and answers my questions very quickly if I have an issue with my pharmacy, etc. I have recommended Circle to several friends and would gladly recommend them to anyone.

Kylie

Circle Medical has finally given me access to the kind of care that not only works best for me, but also cares about me.

Madden

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

Joshua

I have had nothing but a great experience all around. The providers are great and the online staff has been helpful every time I’ve needed anything.

Isabel

Ease of use, professional support, and excellent medical providers make Circle Medical a great choice.

Dalton

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

Christopher

Good service, easy to use, knowledge providers. Much more helpful than I expected from a "virtual" service.

Nicole

Circle Medicine gave me access to care that if I had not been able to access through telemedicine I most likely would not have gotten it. Not to mention the ease of use, which is an absolute 10. Technology at its finest.

Mark

I like my provider and the ease of appointments at home is great.

Lana

I have sent this app to three of my friends who were having issues with a competitor and they switched and haven't look back. The amount of appointments, the ability to choose your provider and the range of the appointments available in one app.

Raven

The provider made appointments comfortable to talk and discuss my problems. It is easy to schedule and have access to messaging. Very affordable compared to other facilities I have looked into.

Junior

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

Isaac

I put off my mental health for a long time. It took me a lot of courage just to click Book Appointment. It was so easy, the first appointment was great and constructive, The second was scheduled for 3 days later, and I got a treatment plan from my Mental Health Professional within hours.

Kyle

Great service, This is very ideal for a person who can not make time to go see a doctor at a clinic.

Leah

My provider listened so intently and made sure to let me know my concerns were valid. I haven't been this comfortable with a provider in years.

Christian

I’m very happy with the service that Circle provides me with. It’s easy to make appointments with short notice or in advance. Being able to chat in between appointments is an awesome feature and the timely responses I’ve received are always appreciated. I actually have referred a friend to Circle already and she is very happy as well.

Wendy

I have recommended Circle Medical to two friends and they both have used and are happy with their experience as well.

Kasen

It’s so convenient as a mom of two to do appointment from home. I even suggested it to my brother who hasn’t gone to the doctor in 10 years and now he’s getting seen!

Vanessa

Didn’t feel like my last doctor's appointments. My provider felt genuinely compassionate about helping me manage my life obstacles with my ADHD. Was skeptical at first but so glad I made the decision. Super affordable for the quality of care.

Justin

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.

Lillianna

Accessible & responsive. Person-centered care. Solution-driven providers who listen and take individual needs into account. Superb follow-through. Genuine providers/staff who want to help. Circle Medical has literally changed my life. My provider listens and offers solutions that have never been presented to me before. Because of that I have been able to achieve so much.

Madeleine

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

Steve

The doctors are awesome, the best of the best!! Extremely happy!!! 🙏🏻🥰

Mike

My provider really listens and understands my issues.

Keli

Very professional service, extremely convenient and has greatly improved my life. Saves me very intimidating visits to regular doctors that don’t take into consideration modern day issues or considerations. I feel taken care of but also understood.
