What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? I love getting to know my patients. Not only talking about their health but getting to know them personally, is what I enjoy most about my job. Having patients feel comfortable during their appointments is very important to me. 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? Whether it be physical or mental health, I believe in listening to the patient and working with them to come up with a safe treatment plan for their diagnosis. I do not believe in a "one size fits all" form of healthcare. Discussing and offering different options of care at times is important so the patient can make an informed decision about what may work best for them. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I have been a nurse practitioner since 2017 and was a critical care nurse for 5 years before that. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, camping, hiking, and riding my motorcycle. I will never say no to ice cream or pasta.

Darion

After struggling with finding a provider and navigating appointment management systems and nebulous cost expectations, Circle was a breath of fresh air that gave me a clear path towards getting care and getting everything else out of the way.

Aileen

I felt like someone was finally listening and validating me. Other doctors treated me like I was seeking drugs and I couldn’t possibly have the problems or that they aren’t that bad and it’s my fault. Thank you so much for listening and asking me question and letting me answer.

Dominique

I have had nothing but a good experience with my provider. I have been able to get the help I need and have been able to regain control of my life.

Lillianna

Just amazing! My provider is down to earth, very knowledgeable, and respectful of my own experience as a healthcare provider. Circle Medical’s ease of access to the service, and responsiveness are models in the industry.

Shannon

Because they get right to the main issues. Most doctors I have seen go through a trial and error diagnosis that goes on for a year or more.

Marlee

They are fast to respond an a great flexible appointment times and they actually listen to your concerns an help you!!

Kamila

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

Eileen

Everyone has been absolutely wonderful to work with. Genuine, resolves my concerns and intelligent. Thank you!

Alex

It’s an awesome app. The providers and other staffs are so professional, they treat the patient with respect. They are also fast and reliable. The cost of visit is also reasonable.

Brooklyn

Circle Medical works around my crazy life. My meetings are fast but thorough and professional and with my insurance it's very affordable.

Ari

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’m convinced that these wonderful people truly care about the patients they serve. I have made such a meaningful connection with my provider, and every rep who answers my questions in the chat. First-rate customer support. Easy appointment booking. Fair price. Thank you Circle Medical.

Amy

I recommended it to my wife, who is now a patient with Circle based on just how simple, easy and convenient it is. Without Circle we wouldn't have had the time to work on our health, and we'd both be in a worse place. Thank you!

Cassie

The app is easy to navigate and book appointments. Also being able to reschedule is great for someone like myself who works on call and has a difficult time keeping appointments.

Roger

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

Easy platform and scheduling, helpful especially when it’s hard to find mental health care.

Asa

Always available, always on time, incredible care providers.

Lisa

It’s nice to have flexibility. The provider was very good and I felt like I was getting excellent care and didn’t need to stress out about taking time off work to get it.

Kael

As someone who has ADHD, simply setting up an account on the site was so easy. You can tell that this was made with neurodivergent people in mind. Things are just SIMPLE.

Edwin

It is quick and convenient, especially compared to traditional healthcare.

Nicholas

I have had a wonderful experience overall. As a stay at home mom of 6 kids my schedule is schedule and finances are stretched tight. Circle has convenient appointments times, with caring medical professionals, and accepts my insurance so the cost is low.

Tricia

I’ve had an amazing experience. I liked how I was able to read up on the providers to find the right fit for me. The provider I chose is absolutely the right fit and has worked with me to find the correct dosage of medication.

Roberto

Helpful, kind, understanding staff and medical professionals who take time to hear you! Thank you all. It’s been a game changer for me!

Polly

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

Quick and easy especially if you're super-busy with life and work to make a appointment to go some where and see a doctor... This is a life changer for me.

Cale

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

Sebastian

I have already recommended it to many people. I’m a college student and my university health center has several barriers that make it almost impossible for anyone to afford the services required to get ADHD treatment through them, even with insurance. Circle Medical is convenient and being an app with reminders that I can call from anywhere makes it helpful to remember and make appointments.

Kyle

The care I’m receiving is excellent. I love that I can access all my information from my phone. I also love that care coordinators respond quickly to my messages.

Axel

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

Very practical, hours are very flexible which is convenient for those who have long work hours.

Eleanor

Very accessible healthcare that strives to meet patients where they're at. Love my provider and always have the option to see other providers when she's not available.

Konner

Exceptional care from Day 1 all the way through current treatment. Couldn’t ask for a better service.

Rory

It has provided me services that would be difficult to obtain otherwise, all from the comfort of my home.

Kallie

Very happy with the provider and experience. He spends his time with me and asks several questions about my health history. I never have gotten this time in an in-person office setting.

Brynn

Extremely convenient! The provider I had was extremely empathetic, thorough, and listened. No more worrying about finding time to drive to the doctors.

Oliver

Circle Medical helped me get diagnosed for ADHD. It absolutely changed my life for the better. I’ve already recommended it to multiple people. Access to affordable care like this is amazing and I want everyone to benefit from it.

Shyla

I have had nothing but good experiences with Circle Medical. Being able to find the right treatment for my disorder has changed my life

Piper

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 :-)

Patrick

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.
