What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? Being a healthcare provider is such a fulfilling profession in that it allows me to help patients in need. Being able to diagnose and treat patients' medical concerns and see them come back feeling better is very rewarding. 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 not only help treat medical ailments but also should assist in disease prevention ensuring the optimal wellness of both body and mind. I believe it is important for primary care providers to be transparent with their patients in order to build a trusting relationship that can ultimately help achieve better patient goals. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? When I am not working, I am busy homeschooling my kids, taking them to parks, or traveling with family whenever there's a chance. I also like trying out different restaurants/cuisines.

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

I was able to locate a provider to help me with my needs within 24 hours even though I’ve been trying to find a one locally, I was unable to receive help for months until I stumbled on Circle Medical. They were helpful and nice.

Kareem

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

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

Laura

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.

Circle Medical provides competent services that I cannot get in the rural area where I live. My provider is thorough, friendly, knowledgeable, and she listens.

Paisley

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

My provider is attentive, thorough, and always focused what is right for me. I never feel rushed and I always feel heard. And it is easy to make an appointment

Joy

Great selection of providers. They are kind and knowledgeable. Easy process - insurance accepted! Did my check in while at work, doesn’t get better than that!

Skyla

Circle Medical has been such a great platform to see a care provider! I have had such a great experience with the ease of using the platform as well as the providers. Thank you!

Nico

My provider is just great. She has true concern for her patients. She listens and tries to understand my needs while providing educated suggestion to help me in my development. She shows that she has a heart!

Ginger

Circle Medical is ultra convenient, and my provider is thoughtful, professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. This is the future of healthcare!

Lilian

My provider is really knowledgeable about her job and is very compassionate. My interactions with the other staff has been great too!

Travis

Circle makes treatment accessible. In my area, providers are either not available at all or only available many months down the road. The service providers are very pleasant. Versus other options, where the service providers were rude and impatient, Circle actually has available appointments.

Iliana

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

The attention my provider has for me as a patient. Not just the generic questions but rephrasing them in to something that is specific to me and I can understand.

Kimberley

Great, highly skilled, and supportive providers. Also, the app is easy to use, and I get quick responses to questions

Andy

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

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

Dayanara

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

I was able to schedule an appointment quickly and complete my diagnosis and prescription within the same week. My provider was caring, communicated clearly, and willing to answer questions.

Manny

Convenient, knowledgeable doctors, and the screen makes me more comfortable asking questions and sharing more personal information.

Justus

My provider is very attentive, and very clear about treatment and recommendations. Everybody is so helpful. When you send messages they respond quickly.

Summer

This has been the most helpful medical resource I’ve discovered. Quality providers, good service and factual conversation. I am very pleased.

Cristina

My provider is absolutely amazing. Very compassionate, listens, provides feedback, and takes her time. I feel very comfortable and confident with my care.

Arielle

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

Amazing staff who are looking to do everything they can to help you with any problem you may have. I was able to get an appointment within a few days for my first consultation compared to a couple months with another service I used to be with. All around it was a great decision moving to Circle Medical, couldn’t be happier.

Gerald

I get to decide my provider. Tons of appointments that are days away instead of weeks. Well-designed app. Medical/appointment notes are all in one location instead of spread around or buried in menus. Everything got done without any bumps or pushback or bs. I've never *ever* had such a painless experience.

Stacy

Ease and simplicity of signing up, scheduling, communicating, and not having to waste time going to an office. Saves hours and hours of time per year.

Arthur

I have been working with a great doctor and being able to do everything from my house has been extremely helpful.

Jaime

So much easier than dealing with my antiquated primary care office! I used to have to wait on hold for at least ten minutes to make an appointment.

Venu

My provider is quite possibly the best most personable doctor I've ever had the pleasure of speaking with!

Clay

MY PROVIDER has been great - her support and medical guidance have done for me what no other provider has done up to this point in my life. She's listened to my concerns and helped me understand what my brain is doing - and without stigma, judgment, or gaslighting. I'm getting the care I need and feel like my voice, lived experience, and opinion matter. The app is easy to use, the virtual appointments are easy to join, and the ability to meet virtually has greatly benefited me (given my crazy work schedule). Telehealth and virtual care have changed my life in the best ways.

Lydia

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

Sharon

My provider has been amazing, very helpful and supportive. She’s very knowledgeable and sincere. I would definitely recommend.

Ayaan

I appreciated the swift, clear assistance I got with Circle Medical. I liked that I could be evaluated and treated from home.

Aliza

Great group of providers. They have been great and quick to answer. I love the fact that in today's world we can do this on the phone. It’s convenient for everyone.

Julio

I had struggled to find a primary care provider near where I live as I live in a very rural area and I found this via Google search and could not be happier with the service I have received since. Appointments available next day, easy app to use and friendly staff. Highly recommend!!

Regina

I've never had such immediate access to high quality medical care. It's wonderful.

Mel

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 is a much more convenient way to see a doctor. No taking days off work, sitting around in waiting rooms or fighting traffic to make the appointment.
