Tell us what makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider. I am passionate about being a healthcare provider because I love the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of my patients and help them reach their optimal level of health and happiness. It gives me great pleasure to be a difference maker in the world. 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 should be one to help navigate a patient throughout their lifespan physically, mentally, and spiritually. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I love to travel, play with my dogs, cook, enjoy family time, and dance.

I actually have referred a friend to Circle already and she is very happy as well.

Wendy

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

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

My provider is very understanding and non-judgemental. She shows care for her patients. And I appreciate the convenience of being able to speak to a provider on telehealth.

My provider listened so intently and made sure to let me know my concerns were valid. I haven't been this comfortable with a provider in years.

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

Marlee

You guys have been so helpful in getting my meds and I love having the accessibility of talking to someone to help me with other questions that I may have. I actually have referred one of my friends to this service. It has helped me immensely.

Taliyah

Friendly staff. Compassion for ailment, quick response and open schedules. Very knowledgeable team!

Gigi

I’m a busy working parent. I love that I was able to get an appointment quickly with availability in the evening hours. The NP who evaluated me was thorough on intake/history and I was able to get much needed care. I’m excited that they will be able to provide my primary, preventative care too!

Tomas

The provider was pleasant to work with and made me feel comfortable to talk about my symptoms. The whole process was very easy and stress free.

Josiah

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

Circle Medical has provided a convenient, safe, trusted, and confidential medium for health care. I have recommended this service to various family and friends and will continue to do so.

June

Provider is amazing and so are the staff coordinators.

Riley

It is so difficult to access mental health care services right now especially for ADHD, so far I have received immediate and responsive care that has already improved my quality of life, thank you.

Eric

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.

I already recommended it to some friends. I love going through you guys. Most caring provider I have ever had. She actually listens to me and makes sure I am well taken care of. Absolutely would recommend you to everyone. Such a quick and easy way to get in touch with some very kind and caring providers. You are the best!

Kirstie

My provider with Circle Medical has been very thorough and helpful. I can get my meds for depression, thyroid and ADHD. She orders labs and follows up on the results.

Serena

I could not believe that I got an appointment for ADHD within hours. I had a terrible time trying to get an appointment with the group my insurance recommended. The health practitioner is knowledgeable and kind, and I feel like I'm getting both good physical and psychological support.

Sierra

My provider is great, very attentive and a great listener. This app makes my life so much easier and convenient when it comes to keeping up with my health.

Alex

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

Ease of use. The technology piece makes getting help that would be very time consuming and expensive more achievable.

Matthew

Appointment availability: I cannot get an in person appointment where I live (a big city) for 6 weeks. This app allowed me to connect with a medical professional the next day. (Same day was available as well). Professionalism: I felt that in my two appointments, I was treated with respect, not judged, and I was able to express my issues and thoughts to someone who was actually listening.

Leanna

Love the convenience and privacy!

Kim

I love my provider. He is very thorough and is easy to get ahold of.

Kyle

Because the my provider is eager to help and he is doing anything possible that would achieve my medical needs. I've gotten much further through 2 apts with him this last month than I had ever achieved the many prior years and much struggle.

Greta

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

Alex

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, asking me questions, and letting me answer.

Basil

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.

Iliana

I have been helped in every aspect of the word.
