Board Certified, Family Medicine, 3 years of experience
What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? I enjoy helping people and watching the progress from poor health to wellness. It is rewarding to me to provide education and prevention of illness. 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? Primary care encompasses the mind and body. Our role as provider is to not only manage chronic illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia but we must also focus on providing mental health. Mental health is a vastly underserved part of the patients overall wellbeing. Prevention of illness is also an important aspect of primary care. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I enjoy reading, going to the beach and spending time taking walks with my family in the state forest. I have 3 King Charles Cavalier Spaniels and enjoy working with the cavalier rescue when the opportunity arises.

I felt listened to! I’ve met with medical professionals in the past who dismissed my complaints, but my provider actively listened to me and addressed my issues.

Evangeline

I’ve used several online platforms for various medical needs over the last few years, and Circle has been the most comprehensive, as well as pairing me with an excellent provider who actually listens to my issues and concerns as well as taking into consideration what I think would work for me, and not just putting me on random medications to see what may or may not work. I felt listened to and respected, and believe my provider actually wants to help instead of just getting paid and speeding through our appointment.

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.
