Board Certified, Internal Medicine, 6 years of experience
What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? I love empowering patients to take control of their own health. I enjoy being able to make a difference in people's lives and helping them achieve their fullest, healthiest potential. 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? A good primary care doctor is an explainer, motivator, and organizer. They are the first one in and the last one out whenever a patient needs help. They understand that physical health and behavioral health are interconnected and give evidence-based advice to assist patients in making changes for the better. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I love to travel, spend time with my kids, and write. I am also a huge Harry Potter nerd!

Wonderful experience. I feel heard. The virtual visit with the PCP has been so positive. I feel I've gotten better care than I have had in my past in person visits.

Steph

Circle Medical has helped me when I felt helpless.

Mira

Easy to schedule and do appointments, the biggest plus for me is that the prescription is sent immediately after the appointment to my desired pharmacy with no delay, and if I need to change pharmacies that's also extremely quick.

Megan

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

Tatiana

My experience with Circle Medical has been fantastic! I’ve had multiple referrals that just lead me back to the beginning, and with Circle I was able to circumvent those, experiencing speedy and professional treatmet. I owe my quality of life to Circle.

Keira

Excellent service. Easy to navigate. Connections to professional staff that have helped me on multiple occasions.

Felipe

My provider is amazing! She is the first person that I felt like has listened to me and tried to help. I recommend to everyone.

Kit

Such a convenient and easy process. Customer support is also great.

Cameron

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

Oliver

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

Greg

Love the convenience and privacy!

Kim

Circle Medical is super-convenient, respectful of your time, and far superior to long waits and far-off scheduling with in-person doctors. I am super glad I discovered this.

Terrell

I found an amazing provider who has helped me more in the last few months than a team of specialists over the course of nearly a decade of care.

Valentin

Circle Medical has been extremely patient-oriented and has helped me feel like I’m in good hands with my Mental Health. Receiving my medications on-time with no issues.

Bailee

My provider has been really attentive. When I reached out for customer support on what I thought were side effects of a new medication, I received replies promptly.

Shelby

I've had nothing but the best experience with Circle Medical. All my needs have been met and it's VERY flexible.

Nola

My provider has been so kind, validating, and understanding. She’s helped me understand my ADHD and treat it.

June

An extremely caring company, very responsive and went above and beyond when I was in crisis. Cannot recommend them enough!! Keep up the great work.

Zayne

This app met me on my level for my neurodivergent needs, didn't keep me waiting, and has really kind and professional medical staff.

Kanesha

My interaction was one with care, and I was asked more questions into my “issues or problems.” It didn’t feel like I was talking to a typical doctor, but rather someone who was genuinely concerned with my problem.

Samantha

This is the first practice in over a decade where I actually felt heard. Advocating for yourself can be hard when you’ve had other practitioners who are dismissive and condescending. This practice is the complete opposite and a much needed breath of fresh air.

Yolanda

The app makes everything really easy and both providers I've seen so far have been wonderful. I couldn't find any doctors in my area that weren't insanely expensive so this app has been a lifesaver!

Laurie

My provider is very attentive, and very clear about treatment and recommendations. Everybody is so helpful. When you send messages they respond quickly.

Summer

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

Circle Medical has been very easy to use. I use Circle Medical for my ADHD treatment and it has been amazing. My provider is fantastic, the hours are flexible, and the reminders help keep me on track. I was sick earlier in the year and needed immediate care, which I was able to schedule in minutes. I used to use MDlive for my primary/urgent care, but I’ve switched entirely to Circle.

Mario

The app, and the providers have been a great deal of help to me! And the convenience is wonderful as well. I honestly can't ask for better help. I'm really on a path to getting better and stronger so thank you.

Demetrius

Circle Medical has in all honesty provided me with the most attentive, compassionate, and informed health care I've ever received. Being able to get care that fits with my demanding and unusual work schedule is a game- changer. So many times in the past I've been unable to access care I needed, or follow-up care, because of travel issues, time constraints, and my own anxiety & depression.

Selah

Convenience. Flexible appointment times and helpful physicians. There’s always someone available to assist if I have an issue with my prescription or pharmacy.

Rianna

My practitioner is amazing and has helped me so much. She is compassionate and truly cares about her patients.

Dallas

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

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

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

My provider is attentive and listens to my needs. She addresses any issues I have. She is never late to our meetings.

Britney

The provider was very professional and I felt comfortable with the video appointment setting. Also, each appointment was punctual with no wait time.

Kash

Very easy platform to use, providers are knowledgable, easy to make appointments that fit in my busy schedule.

Madelyn

This has been the most helpful medical resource I’ve discovered. Quality providers, good service and factual conversation. I am very pleased.

Cristina

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

Felicia

Very easy to schedule appointments, communication and doctors notes are the best I’ve ever experienced. My provider is very easy to talk to.

Darien

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

Circle makes treatment accessible. In my area, providers are either not available at all or only available many months down the road. The service providers are very pleasant. Versus other options, where the service providers were rude and impatient, Circle actually has available appointments.
