Board Certified, Family Medicine, 15 years of experience
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? I believe in treating holistically - mind, body and spirit. I believe that without wellness in all three of these areas, the others can not be optimal. What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? I feel my purpose is to help people by maximizing their wellness, whatever they define that to be. I believe all people deserve quality healthcare. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I work as a voice over artist for audio books. I enjoy baking and working in my woodshop and gardening.

Excellent customer service and support. I usually avoid the doctor's office at all costs but my provider here is really nice and pleasant. Definitely a game changer for my health! Thank you :-)

Everything about the service and the people have been great. Always on time, nice to speak with, and they answer every question

Anika

The Circle Medical team is responsive, thorough, kind, helpful and respectful, and listens to your needs.

Frankie

My provider is very thorough and thoughtful. She takes her time and listens to her patients. While healthcare seems to have become a factory-like business, Circle Medical provides patient-centered care, in a concierge-like manner. I’m very happy!

Aria

I love my provider. She is always on time, very knowledgeable about the medications and my condition and always answers all my questions.

TJ

I love not having to wait before my appointment begins in the lobby and not having to drive there also saves time. It was also great when I had COVID, as I did not have to expose anyone and still could get medical help. I also got life changing diagnosis of ADHD through Circle Medical. I LOVE MY PROVIDER, she is amazing!

Mariana

My provider is great. To be honest, for me it started out with wanting to privately get my ADD addressed. But now it is so much more. She seems genuinely concerned about my health and asks questions that help me address and focus on issues as needed. Highly recommend.

Matthew

Application is easy to navigate and use. From a service perspective I enjoy the convenience / access to professionals nationwide

Ali

I have an amazing provider. She understands my ADHD and depression better than any other provider/doctor/therapist I've ever had a session with in person. She's helped me out of one of my most difficult times with her assessments and kept me on track thanks to the ease of communication and accessibility of Circle. I honestly wouldn't be here today without Circle or my provider.

Amira

Provider was wonderful, the medicine she prescribed worked overnight. I was amazed at how fast the healing started.

Paxton

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

Carlo

The convenience and the combination of PCP care with knowledge of mental health. The physician took the time to get to know me both physically and mentally.

Tamara

The best, most easy experience I’ve ever had! My provider has been tremendously knowledgeable and helpful.

Malia

I like the simplicity and consistency of interaction with the app; scheduling appointments and chatting without the nonsense back and forth missed phone calls and voicemails is a tremendous relief.

Steven

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.

Lilianna

The process has been so easy and every care team rep I have encountered has been kind and courteous no matter how silly my question.

Elaina

Changed my life for the best.

Tania

Because my provider was wonderful, on time and really took the time to listen to me without judgement.

Conrad

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

I have recommended to several friends. The process, UI, and providers are very quick and caring. It is perhaps the easiest to use system I’ve ever seen. I highly highly recommend the organization.

Zeke

Ease of care, excellent provider who listened to my concerns, video apts from home on the weekend which makes it so much easier to have an appointment.

Annalise

Excellent service! Kind, considerate, and professional.

Carrie

My experience so far has been top notch really. From my provider's approachable manner and willingness to truly listen to me, to the after-hours service where I always received fast responses to my text messages, everyone has been so gracious. Circle Medical has been an important part of my new life. Thank you all so much.

Neil

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

Joshua

Quick, efficient, and helpful care. Everything is clear and app is spectacular.

I could not believe that I got an appointment for ADHD within hours. I had a terrible time trying to get an appointment with the group my insurance recommended. The health practitioner is knowledgeable and kind, and I feel like I'm getting both good physical and psychological support.

Sierra

I’ve been through a few online doctors and psychiatrists and Circle has provided the most professional providers I’ve encountered. They truly care about their patients. The app is also easily navigated and has multiple options of care!
