Dr. Drew Werner
Board Certified, Family Medicine, 34 years of experience
What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? My life was changed by my pediatric cardiologist & pediatric cardiothoracic surgeon whom I was introduced to at birth & remained in touch with through medical school. I was born a "blue baby" with congenital cyanotic heart disease as a result of an atrial septal defect. In 1969, I underwent surgery to repair that and have wanted to help patients change their lives and improve their health as my doctors did for me. My passion in medicine has not changed & my goal in treating patients has always remained not to simply treat, diagnose or prescribe, but rather improve the quality of their lives. 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? George Engel, MD introduced me to the Bio-Psycho-Social model of medicine and my specialty of Family Medicine allows me to practice that. We are not simple beings of one or two aspects, but complex individuals impacted by our physical health, genetics, lifestyle, environment, work and social interactions. It is always my role to help patients navigate those complex interactions which are both recognized as well as hidden. That is the Art and Science of medicine. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? Living in Colorado, enjoying the outdoors is an important part of who I am and what I do! Hiking, mountain biking, skiing, camping are all amazing. At the same time I love reading which I take the time to do daily. I practice my spiritual beliefs and may share that with patients if appropriate. I also cherish and love my time with my adopted daughter who is in First Grade!

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

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

I am very happy with their service, especially after bad experiences with other companies. My provider is very helpful, attentive and genuinely seems to care. Medicine orders are quick and they do what they promise.

Seymour

I felt heard. I felt educated by the provider. There’s so much stigma and such a shortage of psychiatrists, I felt alone and judged, but Circle was different.

Debbie

I needed a script for a CPAP machine and don’t have a lot of vacation/PTO time right now, so telehealth really fits my situation. I am thoroughly satisfied with my experience so far!

Erika

The provider I spoke to was much more helpful than I expected. Instead of telling me what I thought I wanted to hear, she told me what I NEEDED to hear.

Kierra

An extremely caring company, very responsive and went above and beyond when I was in crisis. Cannot recommend them enough!! Keep up the great work.

Walter

The provider was pleasant to work with and made me feel comfortable to talk about my symptoms. The whole process was very easy and stress free.

Josiah

The service is so convenient, my provider is incredibly nice, and the technology is always reliable.

Amara

My new provider is very nice and very helpful. The process was super simple and I’m able to schedule appointments easily

Stacy

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

I have had nothing but good experiences with my provider. She is very knowledgeable, caring, and non-judgmental.

Adeline

I have been helped in every aspect of the word.

Annalisa

Best and easiest onboarding to start out and schedule. The provider was so amazing and the best I have had. Asked questions others have not. Customer service via chat was great as well. Fast and efficient. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Cassidy

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

Easy access, no run around. Blown off by at least 3 different doctors before finding Circle and my diagnosis/treatment has immensely improved my life.

Micaela

I have really loved using Circle Medical. I use Circle for both ADHD treatment and as my primary care provider. I’ve had an easy time with making appointments, seeing my doctors, and I receive amazing care. I work long hours and it’s difficult for me to visit typical doctor’s offices, so it’s nice to have a well rounded online clinic. I also feel that Circle Medical has a great background and it feels more secure knowing that they are tied to a large hospital with a great track record.

Tripp

It is a very well organized system, efficient and easy. My provider has specific ADHD training and you let us know how your ADHD program rolls (up front). No one likes surprises. My provider was kind and helpful and I got a follow up on our discussion and what I can do to empower myself NOW. Thanks Circle.

Jasper

I like all three providers I have interacted with on Circle Medical. They are friendly and easy to talk with.

Ciara

The providers are very knowledgeable, friendly and available. I’ve met with multiple providers, never had any issues.

Xavier

I have struggled for years with my health issues, but always ran into barriers in getting affordable treatment. With Circle Medical, I saw a provider, received a diagnoses, and am already on treatment. All within a few days! They listen and also make getting help so easy.

Amber

The best care provider I've ever had.

Rover

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 love the convenience and ease of scheduling appointments. The providers I have interacted with have been great! They really care about their patients.

Barbara

Very convenient, easy to get an appointment, provider visits have been very efficient and professional. I felt like the provider listened to my concerns and gave me the care I needed.

Ricky

It is very convenient for a busy schedule. The doctors are friendly and qualified.

Phoebe

Provider is amazing and so are the staff coordinators.

Riley

The provider was prompt, understanding, and overall wonderful.

Jenn

Very convenient to use and the practitioner I’m using is incredibly sweet, listens, and doesn’t rush me.

Julien

Circle Medical made primary care accessible in a timely way, informative, and affordable. The app increased ease of use and access, and I would recommend the service to anyone looking for consistent, helpful, available primary care.

Kaitlin

My provider was very helpful and made sure all my concerns are addressed. Also the team made sure that my expectations are met. Thanks to the team and looking forward of the outcome of my transition with their help.

Paulina

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.

Jamarcus

My primary care provider is so nice and helpful. The system is very easy user friendly, and the prices are reasonable compared to many other companies.

Cadence

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

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

Circle Medical handles everything in a professional and courteous manner.

Paul

Very convenient for someone who has works contract jobs, and has to live in different places throughout the year.

Karlie

Appointment availability: I cannot get an in person appointment where I live (a big city) for 6 weeks. This app allowed me to connect with a medical professional the next day. (Same day was available as well). 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.

Leanna

Circle is so easy to use! The reminders for appointments are very convenient. I tried to make appointments to be medicated for years and the nature of my disorder made it feel impossible. I genuinely feel like having such convenient and consistent access to a provider changed my life. The provider I see was so patient and understanding of my hesitation to be medicated, she explained every step of the process, and helped me find an option that worked for me. I’m experiencing relief for the first time from symptoms I’ve had my entire life because of this program.

Jaydon

My interaction was one with care, and I was asked more questions into my “issues or problems.” It didn’t feel like I was talking to a typical doctor, but rather someone who was genuinely concerned with my problem.

Samantha

So easy and EXCELLENT providers. Have been so very thankful for this service. It’s truly improved my life.
