Easy to schedule appts, easy to use the app, got the care I needed quickly, friendly providers, quality care.

Indigo

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 receive a higher level of interaction and care from my provider at Circle than I did from the PCP I had for many years at another clinic. I feel like I have an advocate in my health journey.

Stephen

Great service, always gets the results you want and need, full team always ready to answer your questions in-depth. The willingness to just help is truly amazing.

My provider is great and I feel like she really cares about my well-being as a person. She listens to any concerns I have and takes me seriously.

Melinda

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 well being.

Danielle

Sincere and caring staff! Excellent communication.

Stewart

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

I work all day and I have to take time off of work to visit the doctor. This is so much more convenient.

Eleanor

My experience with Circle Medical has been life changing. Their staff and my primary care physician have been beyond amazing. I would recommend Circle Medical to anyone who has a need for any services they provide. I simply cannot say enough good things on their behalf.

Jovanny

Ease and simplicity of signing up, scheduling, communicating, and not having to waste time going to an office. Saves hours and hours of time per year.

Clarence

Easy to get appointments, provider is kind, very helpful and is committed to helping me. This app was there when my doctors ignored me for YEARS.

Ashley

After struggling with finding a doctor 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.

Tobias

Ease of use, and an amazing practitioner. My absolute favorite of all time in my life.

Sarah Jane

As a long-standing healthcare worker myself, I am very familiar with the healthcare system and how difficult at times it can be to get an appointment with a provider. Circle Medical makes it easy to receive care at my convenience. The providers I have seen are knowledgeable and supportive of my needs. I would highly recommend Circle Medical.

Davis

Love the convenience and privacy!

Great doctors, great customer support, prescription is sent to my pharmacy electronically, payments are done internal (no third parties), easy and simple.

The provider I spoke with was very knowledgeable and listened to me. She explained things well and made me comfortable.

Carolina

It was very easy to sign up. The provider I chatted with was very thorough.

Maggie

My provider is attentive and knowledgeable. Her team is responsive, I really feel like I receive the same quality of care as if it were in person. Appointments are readily available.

My experience with Circle Medical has been nothing but great. My personal medical provider had been wonderful. She listens, and truly wants to help me.

Ezra

My provider has been BEYOND helpful, kind and compassionate. I never thought I would be so comfortable using an app for my medical needs, but I’m so glad I gave Circle Medical a chance!

Bobby

Fast, easy to use, excellent professional service. There are many lousy companies and scams out there, and this is definitely NOT one of them!

My provider is great and I feel like she really cares about my well-being as a person. She listens to any concerns I have and takes me seriously.

Priscilla

The process was easy and the provider was very professional. They helped me feel comfortable with my choice to seek help.

Adeline

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.

April

A friend told me about it. I was extremely hesitant. Was I ever surprised. The process was easy. The provider was wonderful and made me feel very comfortable about my decision

Alexus

Very convenient! I love the ease of scheduling, the availability of providers, and the wide range of symptoms they treat!

Henry

Circle Medical has finally given me access to the kind of care that not only works best for me, but also cares about me.

Madden

MY PROVIDER has been great - her support and medical guidance have done for me what no other provider has done up to this point in my life. She's listened to my concerns and helped me understand what my brain is doing - and without stigma, judgment, or gaslighting. I'm getting the care I need and feel like my voice, lived experience, and opinion matter. The app is easy to use, the virtual appointments are easy to join, and the ability to meet virtually has greatly benefited me (given my crazy work schedule). Telehealth and virtual care have changed my life in the best ways.

Lydia

Everything about the service and the people have been great. Always on time, nice to speak with, and they answer every question

Anika

Circle Medical has been an incredibly smooth and convenient way to receive medical care. The providers have been incredibly understanding and supportive, have been helpful in helping me find solutions to problems, and go the extra mile to ensure I’ve received quality care. All of this comes with the convenience of being wherever I have an internet connection from the comfort of home. I would highly recommend to anyone.

Mekhi

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

Scheduling was easy. Appointments started on time. I needed help with some preauthorization stuff for a prescription and the response time was quick and efficient via chat.

Messiah

I have ADHD and this format of meeting with providers is very ADHD friendly. It makes it easy to make appointments and the reminds and app are helpful.

Adalyn

My provider…she is amazing. Also the support team for reminders, scheduling and questions. Wonderful experience!

Carl

It is a very fair and speedy service. My nurse practioner is a wonderful person, who listens and understands my issues. She has been nothing but kind and willing to help me. I would completely recommend Circle Medical to anyone who wants to be taken care of.
