    I love Circle Medical! I have a very busy life with a constantly changing schedule and it can be very challenging to plan for my doctor's appointments. With my providers on Circle Medical however, I can meet with my provider any place that I feel comfortable talking about whatever is going on.

  • Quote

    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!

    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.

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

    Mina

  • Quote

    Circle Medical has in all honesty provided me with the most attentive, compassionate, and informed health care I've ever received. Being able to get care that fits with my demanding and unusual work schedule is a game- changer. So many times in the past I've been unable to access care I needed, or follow-up care, because of travel issues, time constraints, and my own anxiety & depression.

    Selah

  • Quote

    I feel like even though it's virtual that my clinician connected with me. She is very knowledgeable and asks many questions to make sure the medicine I am taking is appropriate for me. I met another provider there when my chosen one wasn't available and she made me feel the same way. I can trust both of these clinicians.

    Shamar

  • Quote

    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.

    Ryan

  • Quote

    My provider is extremely caring, she believes in always giving me her most honest and sincere feedback regardless of wether I like it or not. I look forward to seeing her every month. Circle Medical and my provider have given my life purpose, and I now understand my shortcomings not as failures but as a condition.

    The best experience ever, I live in a small town where I know my providers personally and sometimes it's hard to admit where you struggle. It was so nice to have someone that I could talk to in private and that listened and was so thorough and helpful in every way. Very easy experience and I wish I would have done it sooner! Great company!

    Access and personal connection. The three providers I interacted with seem to have gone out of their way to make things easy for me. It was a seamless experience from assessment/consultation, labs, and medications; it all just worked. As an NP I now know I want to work for an organization like Circle.

    I moved to a new area and wasn't sure how to proceed with primary care. I reached out to Circle Medical just because I needed someone to assist with my prescriptions. But now that I am seeing them, I will rely on them for my PCP needs going forward. Thank you.

    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

    It's so easy to use and I'm able to schedule same day virtual appointments. The provider I see is very thorough, extremely knowledgeable and always kind and considerate. I've been able to communicate easily through the chat and always get a response within a few hours. The best part is my insurance is accepted so there is very little out of pocket for me. 10/10 would definitely recommend to anyone!

    Aracely

  • Quote

    Prior to Circle Medical, I struggled for months as I visited doctor after doctor for an ADD diagnosis, just to be ignored and misdiagnosed because none of them had researched ADD in women. Then, I found Circle, and was diagnosed and treated within days. The treatment worked, and my life has improved drastically.

    Easy to use app. The provider that I see is exceptional. You take my insurance so my cost is extremely affordable. Great customer service. Super easy to make an appointment. Many appointment time/day options. I have nothing but praise for Circle Medical. Thank you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Anxiety / Depression Treatment

Can I get diagnosed with anxiety or depression through Circle?

Yes, Circle Medical providers offer comprehensive assessments to diagnose mild to moderate anxiety or depression. These evaluations take into account your symptoms, medical history, and other contributing factors.

If diagnosed, we provide ongoing care, including regular check-ins, and evidence-based prescription management, when appropriate. Options may include short-term interventions or long-term support, depending on your needs. Referrals for psychotherapy, talk therapy, or online therapy are also available.

Please note that booking and paying for a video appointment does not guarantee a diagnosis or specific medication. Providers consider your complete health profile and use evidence-based diagnostic tools to ensure the best treatment for your condition.

Who is a good fit for anxiety and/or depression medication management through Circle?

Our mission is to make mental health care more accessible through primary care integration. However, for complex mental health conditions such as psychosis, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or cases requiring benzodiazepines, a mental health professional or psychiatrist may be recommended.

Circle Medical is not equipped to prescribe controlled substances for sleep aids, pain management, or severe mental health conditions. For guidance on our mental health care scope, see our Mental Health and Care Eligibility guidelines.

Providers

Am I seeing a psychiatrist through Circle?

Circle Medical providers include board-certified MDs, DOs, nurse practitioners (NPs), and physician assistants (PAs) who deliver a full range of primary care services, including mental health care. While we do not have psychiatrists on our platform, our providers can diagnose and treat many mental illnesses and prescribe medications when appropriate.

For more complex cases, such as severe mental health conditions, we recommend consulting a psychiatrist. For more details, please explore our FAQ.

Do I need to book my appointment with a doctor (MD or DO), or can I book my appointment with any provider (PA-C, NP, etc)?

You can schedule an appointment with any of our available providers, including nurse practitioners and physician assistants. All providers collaborate to maintain the same high standard of care across clinical assessments and treatments.

How long are the appointments?

Initial intake appointments last 30 minutes, while follow-up appointments are typically 20 minutes.

Billing

What is the total cost of anxiety and/or depression diagnosis and treatment?

Insured Patients

Your copay may range from $5 to $50 per appointment, depending on your insurance plan. For more accurate estimates, input your insurance details during booking or contact your insurance provider directly.

Uninsured Patients

The cost for self-pay appointments is $100 each.

Insurance

What insurance do you accept?

Circle Medical works with most PPO insurance plans and some HMO plans in the California Bay Area. PPO providers include Anthem Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, Humana, and others.

Unfortunately, we cannot accept Medi-Cal or Medicaid, even for self-pay patients. We recommend seeking care through a provider that accepts these plans.

Other

Do new patients need to prepare anything for their first appointment at Circle Medical?

If you have prior documentation of anxiety or depression diagnoses, you can email them to [email protected]. This step is optional but helps your provider tailor the best treatment plan for you.

What happens after I am prescribed?

After your diagnosis, if medications are prescribed, your prescription will be electronically sent to your preferred pharmacy. For new treatments or dosage adjustments, follow-ups occur every two weeks until stable. Ongoing monthly appointments ensure long-term care and progress monitoring.

Can I get diagnosed in my first appointment? How long does it take to have a complete diagnosis?

Diagnoses usually require 1-2 appointments to allow for a thorough assessment. Clinically appropriate treatments are developed on a case-by-case basis, following evidence-based guidelines to deliver the best care possible

Why is mental health important?

Mental health is an essential part of healthcare. Just as you take care of your physical health, you should also make sure your mental health is prioritized. Prioritizing your mental health can help you manage stress, understand your emotions, maintain relationships, and improve your overall quality of life. Additionally, poor mental health can often lead to physical health issues, such as lack of sleep. In short, mental health should be part of any holistic healthcare plan.



Common mental health issues and illnesses

Mental health issues and illnesses are diverse and can impact anyone, regardless of your age, background, or lifestyle. While there are too many mental health issues and conditions to list, here are some that are commonly diagnosed:

  • Mood disorders - Mood disorders such as depression can affect mood, energy, and ability to function. Depression is often characterized by prolonged and intense feelings of sadness, loss of interest, or hopelessness.
  • Anxiety disorders like panic disorder or generalized anxiety disorder can cause feelings of persistent fear and worry. This can impact someone's happiness and daily life.


How to get a diagnosis online

If you are concerned about your mental health, it's a good idea to reach out to a healthcare provider. If you're uncomfortable with making an in-person appointment, modern technology has made it much simpler to get mental health evaluations online. Diagnosis typically involves questions about your health history, an overall health assessment, and talking about the symptoms you're experiencing. Sometimes, your provider may recommend additional testing if they suspect other health conditions. If you're interested in online care, Circle Medical is a full-stack primary care clinic where you can connect with an online healthcare provider.



How to get mental health help as an adult

Mental health struggles can happen at any point in your lifetime. Remember that you aren't alone and that mental health concerns aren't anything to be ashamed of. It isn't a sign of weakness. If you need mental health support as an adult, the first step is to identify your concerns and symptoms. Next, you will want to reach out to a healthcare provider. They can diagnose and begin your treatment plan. They can also refer you to mental health specialists, like therapists or recommend a specialist when needed.
