What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? Facilitating the impact and privilege of medical expertise to deliver high quality patient-centered healthcare. Systematically approaching care using up-to-date evidence based medicine and innovative technological advances valuing patients, increasing access, and establishing trust and positive patients rapports. 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? The role of a primary care provider for a patient should be comprehensive and holistic. It is important for primary care providers to understand the interdependence of physical health and behavioral health needs, utilizing and optimizing interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary teams and resources to ensure healthcare needs are met. Within their scope of practice and specific practice style, primary care providers are equipped to manage both physical health and behavioral health needs, referring to specialty care as indicated per each patient’s customized care plan and presenting symptoms. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I am an avid reader and enjoy American authors, such as Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Robert Greene. I also love to cook and bake, and enjoy learning new low-carb, low-calorie healthy alternative recipes. Lastly, I recently started taking Italian lessons, so that I can communicate better with my in-laws; they only half understand my conversational Spanish.

My provider was fantastic and very nice. I felt relaxed in my home environment and was able to be truthful without the fear and anxiety I get in a doctor's office.

Arnav

This is a marvelous service, it has significantly helped me with my medical needs and my new PCP is amazing!

Annabella

This was my first experience using something like this and the entire process was very helpful. The staff responded promptly when I had questions and I absolutely love my provider. I was very nervous about the process but she made me feel comfortable and helped me feel like I wasn’t alone. I am so happy I found Circle Medical

I was listened to, given advice and got a chance to say what worked for me in the past. We then went through some questions and got me the meds I needed.

Rylan

Excellent service! Kind, considerate, and professional.

Carrie

It's very convenient and really knowledgeable staff.

Lissie

I absolutely love my provider. I have seen many doctors in the past, but she was the first who actually listened, understood, and gave me hope.

Noah

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 NEVER had healthcare that was this accessible. Thank you.

Melanie

The care I’ve received from my providers has been excellent. They genuinely care about you as a person.

Madalynn

I LOVE my practitioner from Circle Medical. She is caring and careful. She adjusts my meds as needed. She has made a difference in my health and wellbeing.

Gilberto

Easy to schedule appointments, the chat is super responsive, and everyone I’ve talked to is friendly and helpful.

Pando

Easy and convenient, providers have great personalities. First time I actually felt listened to and heard.

Jenny

ADHD assessment was tailored to adult women. The expert gave nuanced additions and clarification to questions or statements. I feel much better equipped to handle life and am making progress in ways that seemed impossible before.

Simone

I feel so comfortable with my provider and the whole process is super easy and manageable!

Melissa

Wonderful care providers, lots of appointments available at convenient times, great technology to make it all work seamlessly.

Jamarion

The efficiency of not having to go to an office and the flexible hours are great!

Tina

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.

Madelynn

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

Kallie

It's been a great platform so far. The response time and availability of the team have been the best.

Kolby

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

Amazing staff who are looking to do everything they can to help you with any problem you may have. I was able to get an appointment within a few days for my first consultation compared to a couple months with another service I used to be with. All around it was a great decision moving to Circle Medical, couldn’t be happier.

Gerald

My provider is attentive, thorough, and always focused what is right for me. I never feel rushed and I always feel heard. And it is easy to make an appointment

Joy

Every interaction has been great. The team has been very responsive and attentive to my needs and dedicated to the improvement of my health.

Jaiden

Very reliable and prompt services and didn’t have to wait for months for a appointment like my previous doctor.

Griffin

Setting things up was incredibly easy and stress-free. I love that the app uses my real name as opposed to what was legally given. And the app works really well, haven't had a single tech issue. Having this option for my appointments with my busy schedule is making my HRT treatment possible.

Great, compassionate, professional provider. She honestly demonstrates that she cares about me. This is a lost art with other professionals I have seen.

Tatiana

Circle Medical Team members care about their patients, provide outstanding services, and deliver services timely and efficiently.

Andres

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

Dira

I finally found a provider who cares about me as a patient. She took time to go over my medical history and went to great lengths to go over how ADHD has affected me and we came up with goals that I want to achieve under her care. Medication isn’t the only avenue for someone living with ADHD.
