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.

Kenley

Very convenient. I didn’t have to wait on hold to make an appointment. Was able to meet in the comfort of my own home. Provider was very professional. Straight to the questions, but felt personal and tailored to my pace.

Mireya

Circle Medical has been absolutely amazing to me. I have been a patient at Circle Medical for about 7 months now and the experience has just been awesome. From day 1 I have been welcomed with open arms. I do video visits right in the comfort of my own home, how convenient is that? My provider is awesome, so sweet and comforting and motivating.

Ronisha

My provider is great and I feel like she really cares about my well-being as a person. She listens to any concerns I have and takes me seriously.

Melinda

The convenience. I don’t have to miss or take off of work. They have available times that work around everything. The staff is always friendly and professional. I wish a lot more doctors did this.

Angel

I referred a friend just yesterday. The reason why is I went through 5 other similar companies before I found this one that checks every box plus extra credit.

Rayan

Absolutely amazing to work with. The staff is so knowledgeable and kind. The app is user friendly and very responsive.

Jimena

Very easy process, my provider was thorough and understanding and efficient. Already recommended to my sister.

Jase

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

Barry

User friendly app and straight forward process. Both providers I've seen are caring and want the best for you!!!

Frank

Process is seamless. Team is professional. It could not be easier to work with them.

Harriet

Isabel

I got an appointment quickly, my provider was friendly and helped me. I was very impressed with everything!

Miguel

Circle Medical handles everything in a professional and courteous manner.

Paul

Providers were very understanding. Didn’t make me feel like I was chasing medication. My provider was very informative. The process was extremely quick and simple.

Olive

I have had a wonderful experience with Circle Medical since I joined on this past February. If I have any questions, the chat feature is great because I receive a quick response. My provider is wonderful. She's been so helpful in my diagnosing and treating my ADHD, but we have also talked about other health issues/concerns and come up with some great solutions. Our monthly video conferences are convenient (much easier than taking off work to go into a doctor's office). I hope to continue using Circle Medical for a time to come.

Emelia

I’ve been very impressed by Circle. They are using technology to solve access issues in healthcare. The tech is impressive and the support staff and practitioners are very professional and kind. Well done.

Mikey

My provider has been BEYOND helpful, kind and compassionate. I never thought I would be so comfortable using an app for my medical needs, but I’m so glad I gave Circle Medical a chance!

Bobby

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.

Amanda

The fact that I don't have to leave my house to get exceptional service from providers that actually care, is amazing. Everything about Circle Medical is great. I would 10 out of 10 recommend.

Johnny

Very easy to schedule and wonderful provider who listens to my concerns.

Greg

Excellent providers that truly care about their patients and listen to their concerns. Telehealth appointments are seamless.

The providers are very empathetic and I always feel comfortable discussing my issues.

Dira

Convenience, professional, confident. They are really doing a good job of taking care of me.

Rick

I have had the most positive and uplifting experience with Circle Medical. My provider is absolutely wonderful! She listens and answers all questions with a kindness and compassion that just makes me feel heard and understood!

Ariel

I’ve come to my provider with 3 different issues and so far she’s been very receptive to all 3. The assistants are very fast to respond by chat in the app to any medication questions, billing questions and scheduling questions I’ve had. I adore not having to drag my kids to the babysitters to go to my PCP for every little issue. I’ve been able to get my needs met quickly and efficiently with Circle Medical and to be honest, I was super skeptical when I started. I thought there was no way it would be easy, but I honestly has been.

Allie

Very helpful, professional, and courteous service.

John

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

Easy to use. Friendly provider. Easy to explain symptoms without judgement.

Felicia

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 at Circle Medical had to take time off for surgery. The transition to a new provider was flawless. I was apprecative of this as I needed a refill of my Rx. This organization of medical professionals continues to impress me.

Brielle

My provider was EXTREMELY helpful and informative, and the entire process was just simple and quick.

Wesley

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

Fast assistance, ability to choose provider based on your need and time frames. Easy to use portal. My experience with the provider has been great!

Marlon

My provider is FANTASTIC and I have already recommended Circle Medical to many people.

Candi

Circle Medical’s process was easy and intuitive made even better by a professional and kind provider. As a practice manager myself, your platform impressed me!!!! My provider’s “bedside manner” is warm and while I have insurance and could have gone elsewhere, I still chose Circle Medical.

Nolan

It's a simple app with a great explanation of the process, my provider was amazing, customer support is fast and spot on with the chat feature, and the UI/UX is top notch.

Faro

This service is life-changing, it made getting the medication that I need so much easier and has over all improved my quality of life without hassle.

Nylah

This service is incredibly convenient and the appointment availability is wonderful. If I have an issue a PCC responds to my messages very quickly and the providers (if needed) do as well. I cannot think of a single thing that would make this a better experience for me!

Gina

My provider has been nothing short of amazing with helping me with ADHD diagnosis and treatment.
