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 the provider is to offer a safe environment for patients to be open and honest without judgement. As a provider in these uncertain times it is imperative to take in all aspects of health care which includes physical and behavioral health. What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? Reaching the medically underserved and providing care has always been my passion, as I faced these challenges myself throughout childhood.In 2001, I recognized the unmet needs of an underserved and uninsured population and what began as a screening program evolved into a primary care practice. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I am an avid triathlete and have competed at the world championship level. When I am not busy training I enjoy resting and relaxing camping with a good warm campfire.

This service is amazing and the provider I am working with is friendly and very personable. I will tell everyone about Circle Medical!

America

My provider is the best! And Circle Medical is very convenient. I was neglecting my health before I knew about Circle because I never felt like going to the doctors, but Circle has changed my life!

Sonny

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

Access and personal connection. The three providers I interacted with seem to have gone out of their way to make things easy for me. It was a seamless experience from assessment/consultation, labs, and medications; it all just worked. As an NP I now know I want to work for an organization like Circle.

Rolando

Very quick and easy to set up an appointment, and was able to get my much-needed prescription right away.

Jermaine

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

June

I like the simplicity and consistency of interaction with the app; scheduling appointments and chatting without the nonsense back and forth missed phone calls and voicemails is a tremendous relief.

Clarissa

The convenience and the combination of PCP care with knowledge of mental health. The physician took the time to get to know me both physically and mentally.

Tamara

It’s very convenient, lots of appointment times to chose from and I don’t have to leave my house or work to be seen

Dillan

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

Very understanding and eager to help with you mental and physical wellbeing.

Kay

My provider has been nothing short of amazing with helping me with ADHD diagnosis and treatment.

Amon

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

Carl

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.

Leticia

Circle Medical staff and my provider have been incredibly responsive and helpful, particularly with navigating issues with finding pharmacies supplying my prescription.

Ezequiel

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

Gaige

Helpful, kind, understanding staff and medical professionals who take time to hear you! Thank you all. It’s been a game changer for me!

Felix

My provider was extremely nice and understanding, and I need that after the terrible care I’ve gotten in my tiny town.

Kay

It's very convenient and really knowledgeable staff.

Lissie

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

Indigo

Great providers, amazing availability, and fast/friendly customer service all from the comfort of my own home.

Dayanara

Excellent communication with providers. Friendly, affordable and transparent care.

Charlie

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

Rooker

Easy platform and scheduling, helpful especially when it’s hard to find mental health care.

Asa

I’ve received better medical care from my provider than I ever have in-person and, all at the ease of doing so online, in my home.

Jaden

I’ve been through a few online doctors and psychiatrists and Circle has provided the most professional providers I’ve encountered. They truly care about their patients. The app is also easily navigated and has multiple options of care!

Ashlynn

Very convenient, and knowledgeable providers. I need monthly appointments with my current prescriptions. My provider is friendly and makes the process a breeze. I don’t have to leave home.

Virginia

The services provided by Circle Medical are excellent and all my questions and concerns have been answered. I have had nothing but great experiences with them.

Sanai

Very good for transgender care, which is great because most telehealth does not do that, and ones specifically for trans care don't accept insurance. It is excellent that this does.

Makayla

My provider is extremely caring, she believes in always giving me her most honest and sincere feedback regardless of wether I like it or not. I look forward to seeing her every month. Circle Medical and my provider have given my life purpose, and I now understand my shortcomings not as failures but as a condition.

Cristy

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

Nicholas

The provider I was with was very professional, on time and took my requests/issues seriously and paid attention to me during the meeting. Many experiences with doctors, it seems like they aren't even listening and most likely drawing pictures on their note pads instead of treating you like an individual.

Amir

My provider is very attentive and always asks me the right questions that fit my issues. I love the communication, the whole team has even if its not my provider, someone is always there to help me when I have questions! 10/10!

Maddie

Very quick availability; very thorough and compassionate providers; easy to navigate the app; health insurance accepted and no hidden fees.

Kash

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

Video appointments save a ton of time. All the providers have been very friendly, prompt and informative.

Jamir

I think you guys are just wonderful. Very professional and responsible prescribing prescribing practices. I also really like my provider; she is compassionate and personable. I think Circle Medical eases the uncomfortability and takes the stigma away regarding ADHD. Also the online support if I have any questions or concerns is remarkably efficient and so quick to respond, even on weekends and after hours. Thank you guys!

Phoebe

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

Anabelle

My provider is the kindest person and she’s very patient and caring. She’s very helpful. The whole setup of Circle Medical is easy and efficient!
