Availabilities Today

Diabetes screening and treatment, now more accessible than ever.

Early screening is crucial to improve health outcomes. Prediabetes and early Diabetes often do not have symptoms.

Diabetes is a common but serious medical condition that affects over 10% of the US population. Even more, while over 96 million adult Americans have Prediabetes, less than 20% actively manage their condition.  

Untreated Prediabetes frequently leads to Type II Diabetes, which causes serious health complications, including heart disease, chronic kidney disease, nerve damage, and other problems with feet, vision, hearing, and mental health.  

The good news is that it is easier to monitor and manage both Diabetes and Prediabetes. With expert healthcare guidance, Prediabetes and Diabetes can be reversed.  

If you have already been diagnosed with Diabetes or would like to be screened for Prediabetes/Diabetes, talk to a Circle Medical provider today who can help you identify symptoms, order A1C bloodwork for accurate diagnosis, refer out to a specialist if needed, and prescribe the latest and most effective treatments to ensure you continue living your healthiest life.

My provider is great, easy to talk to, and addressed my concerns, tried a different approach to medication and it’s the first time ever it’s really worked for me.

Kris

Absolutely perfect. Extremely professional visits, always on time and no front desk staff or traffic!!! How can you beat this?

Paula

As someone who has ADHD, simply setting up an account on the site was so easy. You can tell that this was made with neurodivergent people in mind. Things are just SIMPLE.

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

Giana

They have been beyond helpful. All of the staff have been kind and considerate and always get back to me in a timely manner. They have helped so much. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Jamarcus

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

Circle Medical appealed to me because they clearly explain the process from start to finish on their website. The FAQ was particularly helpful in understanding how the tele-medicine approach works, and what I needed to do on my end. The app is user friendly, it was straightforward to set-up my account. I like that all of the necessary actions can be done via the app. The intake interview went smoothly with my health care provider. She was professional, polite and thorough. I feel that I received an accurate evaluation.

Nathanael

I absolutely love my provider. I have seen many doctors in the past, but she was the first who actually listened, understood, and gave me hope.

Noah

Comfortable experience, and from my home.

Brock

The convenience is amazing. I can always find an appointment at a time that works best for my schedule. Also, I love the ability to text questions whenever I want. I get answers within the same day. It feels like a concierge service. I can make an appointment when I want, and get quick answers to all of my questions.

Jo

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

June

I have tried multiple telehealth options and I have found Circle Medical to be the best one for me. The providers are attentive, informative and don't make you feel rushed. Thank you Circle Medical for helping me to get my mental health back on track.

Francisco

Booking an appointment was incredibly easy. I receive quality care, quickly. That's all I ever wanted!

Samson

The experience is a lot easier and quicker for me compared to driving to a doctors office and waiting and then talking to a doctor for a short amount of time.

Rosemary

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

Ezequiel

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

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.

Natalie

Circle Medicine has been a godsend for me because in my rural area there are not enough primary care physicians. I've had 5 PCPs in 4 years because they keep leaving. When I couldn't get a timely appointment with a new PCP, Circle Medical helped me, with care and concern. I highly recommend Circle Medical. I'm getting better care and health conversation with my provider than I did in person!

Dalia

I love my primary care, I have been finally taking care of my health and they have given me the tools for it. I love ease of the app and the assistance from care coordinators.

Layne

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

Marlee

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

Easy to book an appointment, huge selection of days and times, you can use different providers. Everyone is helpful and respectful.

Steve

I have sent this app to three of my friends who were having issues with a competitor and they switched and haven't look back. The amount of appointments, the ability to choose your provider and the range of the appointments available in one app.

Raven

The scheduling experience is really easy. The provider I chose was on time and she was great. She listened well and I didn't feel rushed or judged. Even though the journey to ask ADHD diagnosis has been a bit scary and anxiety inducing, I left the appointment feeling pretty good about everything.

Leland

My provider is so thoughtful in her questions and thoroughly listens and takes the time to come up with a plan that works for ME. There is no one-size-fits-all, and as a mother of five as well as a small business owner, this rings especially true. With Circle Medical you can expect them to take their time (but not too much! Convenience is key in 2022!) and tailor an individual plan suited perfectly for you. You can expect them to care about you as a person and not a number. I am so thankful I found Circle Medical but especially during these busy times.

Sasha

Quick, efficient, and helpful care. Everything is clear and app is spectacular.

Kathy

Very convenient. I didn’t have to wait on hold to make an appointment. Was able to meet in the comfort of my own home. Provider was very professional. Straight to the questions, but felt personal and tailored to my pace.

Frequently Asked

Diabetes care

How do I get a blood test through Circle Medical?

Book an initial appointment with any Circle Medical provider. During that appointment, your provider will get to know you and recommend a specific blood test or multiple tests. They will then order the blood work for you, and you can go to a Quest or LabCorp lab near you to have the test performed. Your results will be automatically uploaded to the Circle Medical app and your provider will be in touch.

How do I share an existing blood test result with Circle Medical?

Once you have booked an appointment with a Circle Medical provider, you will be prompted to download our HIPAA compliant mobile app. Upon signing into your account, you will be able to upload files and images via our in-app messaging system for your provider to review and discuss with you.

What if I just need a diabetes medication refill? Can I get that through Circle Medical?

To get a medication refilled, book an initial appointment with any Circle Medical provider. Medication should be used in combination with diet and lifestyle improvements, and your provider will be able to spend that initial appointment getting to know you and your health history. Any medications will be sent to a pharmacy of your choice.

I haven’t really been managing my prediabetes or diabetes… where should I start?

We understand. Making lifestyle changes can be intimidating, and it can be difficult to stay in touch with your provider for various reasons. Once you book an initial appointment, you’ll be able to discuss your health history with your provider, who will then recommend a care plan that is specific to your needs. You can reach out to your provider at any time through in-app chat, and video appointments are easy to book and join, which makes getting support for diabetes management a little easier.

I’m starting to experience other health concerns. How do I know if it’s related to my diabetes?

It really depends on your individual health, so the best next step for you is to book an initial appointment with any Circle Medical provider. Our primary care providers are able to diagnose and treat all general conditions outside of diabetes care, so we encourage you to find a Circle Medical provider that you trust and can share all of your healthcare concerns with.

If you are experiencing severe health concerns, please dial 911 or visit your nearest emergency room.

How do I share my glucometer results with my provider?

You can use our in-app messaging system to upload files and images for your provider to review.

How often do I need to have appointments?

Your specific appointment frequency depends on your individual care plan. If this is a new diagnosis for you, you may have more frequent appointments with your provider to allow room for modifications to your care plan based on what is working. Patients who have stabilized their blood sugar levels and are focused on maintenance typically see their providers less frequently; about once every 3-6 months. We encourage you to discuss appointment frequency with your provider during your initial appointment if you have questions.

Do I need an in-person appointment for diabetes care?

Our approach to diabetes management is to provide better access to high quality providers through video appointments and in-app chat, so you can get support whenever you need it. Living a healthier lifestyle is a long-term process, and you deserve support that can adapt to your needs.

Do I have to take medications if I am diagnosed with pre-diabetes or diabetes?

Your Circle Medical provider will work with you and provide guidance on lifestyle changes. It is possible to control diabetes and prediabetes through adherence to lifestyle modifications when diagnosed and acted upon early.

General

Where are Circle Medical’s clinics located? Where can I get care?

Circle Medical has in-person clinics in California and is expanding its in-person presence across the US, but you can get high quality care via telemedicine video appointments in 25 states across the US.

To see what states are currently available, please start booking an appointment and the available states will show as options for you to select.

Do I need to book my appointment with a doctor (MD or DO), or can I book my appointment with any provider (PA-C, NP, etc)?

You do not need to book your initial appointment with a doctor. You can book your appointment with any provider that we have available. Our providers all work closely together to make sure that we are providing the same excellent standard of care to all patients regardless of which provider you book your appointment with.

What is the total cost of treatment?

Circle Medical is a primary care practice, which means that the only fee due to us is the cost of the appointment itself. We accept insurance, so your plan may pay some or all of the appointment fee. Circle does not charge any ongoing membership fees to use our platform.

If you are prescribed medications, you will pay for them when you pick them up at a pharmacy.

Insured

We contract with most PPO insurance plans. If you are a California Bay Area resident, we also work with a small number of HMO plans.

To verify if we work with your insurance, simply start booking an appointment online. You will be prompted to enter your insurance details and will receive eligibility results instantly as well as an estimate of your appointment cost prior to confirming your appointment.

Some PPO plans that we currently work with are:

Anthem Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Aetna, Blue Shield of California, Cigna, Health Net, Humana, and United Healthcare.

Our insured patients pay an average of $5-$50 per appointment.

Plans that we cannot work with are:

Unfortunately, we are unable to provide care for patients who have Medi-Cal or Medicaid insurance. This is because we are not licensed Medi-Cal or Medicaid providers, so we are not able to provide care, even if these patients choose to pay cash instead of use their insurance. If you have Medi-Cal or Medicaid, please do not book an appointment with us, as we will be unable to provide care even if you do not enter your insurance information.

Uninsured

We also offer a self-pay option at a flat rate of $100 per appointment.
