Dr. Armaghan Azad
Board Certified, Family Medicine, 16 years of experience
My name is Dr. Armaghan Azad (aka Dr. Armi) and I’m a double board-certified physician in the fields of Family Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine. I am also a certified health coach through the Institute of Integrative Nutrition. My passion is to help you discover the BEST version of yourself physically, mentally, and emotionally. 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 have extensive experience working at a university-affiliated teaching hospital and have been practicing medicine for 17 years with special emphasis in ER/urgent care, Preventative Medicine, Lifestyle Medicine, Nutrition, Skincare, and Sleep Medicine. While I believe there is a role for pharmaceutical medications in treating many of our chronic diseases, the power of lifestyle choices are grossly underestimated. Most of the chronic diseases we face today are the direct result of our lifestyle choices and no amount of medications is going to provide a cure without making different choices. What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? As your primary care physician we work together to take your health back in your hands and get you feeling your best. My motto is “prevention is always better than the cure.” Health is not an overnight process, it’s a journey. We’ve been brainwashed to think that if we want to lose weight or get healthy, we have to make drastic changes overnight. This is simply not true. Making incremental changes often lead to a BIG transformation. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? In my spare time I love to cook using real, whole foods to entertain friends and family. I love traveling when I have time. I am a content writer for a monthly blog thru IIN where I write on different health topics. Last but not least, I love to share health and wellness tips on my IG social media @healthbydrarmi. It’s never too late to start living your best life and that starts with your health!

Patrick

Convenience. This is the easiest and most confidential way to seek help with my mental health, and keeping it personal between myself and my provider is really important in such a small community where I live.

No matter where I live or move to with my job, I can see my provider on Circle. I’ve been using Circle for over a year and absolutely love them.

Remi

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

Devin

The app is easy to use, appointment scheduling is convenient, there are lots of providers to choose from, and the providers are supportive, explain things well, and are non-judgemental.

Sabrina

Quick, knowledgeable, and professional service. Easy to use and much, much faster than in-person visits.

Charlie

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

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

Amara

Care is personal and effective. I appreciate them taking a moment to understand how I am doing. Never rushed.

The care and concern of the providers, ease of access and use on app and the speed at which things move when dealing with your provider is excellent. Could not be more pleased or grateful to have a provider that listens.

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!

I absolutely love Circle Medical and my provider! The process is so easy and seamless and she’s just the best, most empathetic caregiver! I have referred so many people to Circle Medical!

Dulce

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

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.

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

My provider is amazing very professional. Customer care is always on top of any question you have. I highly recommend Circle Medical.

Circle Medical made accessing care easy. Sometimes it is hard to reach out for help, and Circle Medical made it easy for me to find a remote provider. From the beginning I felt respected, listened to, and cared for.

Cossna

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 have gotten my entire family to switch over to Circle. It’s extremely convenient and has great providers.

I like being able to talk face-to-face to a provider without having to take a whole day off of work to go to doctor's appointment, and I can get primary care and other services all in one place.

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

My provider is honestly the best I have ever had the pleasure of seeing. Her “bedside manner” and the amount of care and concern she has for her patients (and patients as real humans, not just numbers) is beyond compare.

Ryan

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

Circle Medical did an excellent job in addressing my issues quickly and with the best customer service.
