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.

Walter

ADHD assessment was tailored to adult women, the expert gave nuanced additions and clarification to questions or statements. I feel much better-equipped to handle life and am making progress in ways that seemed impossible before.

Chandra

The providers have been exceptionally responsive and giving me great advice. I can get an appointment often within hours if I need something urgently.

Lindy

I felt listened to! I’ve met with medical professionals in the past who dismissed my complaints, but my provider actively listened to me and addressed my issues.

Evangeline

I love my provider, she is now my general practitioner.

Dayna

I have been using Circle for half a year and never had an issue. Questions were answered within the time given. My provider has been there for me 1000%. Never late!! Pleasant and caring always asked how she can HELP!! I have only good things to say. You're wasting your own time, employer's time, gas and cash going to a doctor's office.

Andy

I love speaking with my provider, she always listens to me and takes the time to be interested in me as a person!!

Erica

My experience so far has been top notch really. From my provider's approachable manner and willingness to truly listen to me, to the after-hours service where I always received fast responses to my text messages, everyone has been so gracious. Circle Medical has been an important part of my new life. Thank you all so much.

Neil

My provider was great! Very friendly and made me feel comfortable talking about some uncomfortable parts of my life.

Cara

It works, is easy to use, I think the app is very good. I appreciated the several reminders for my first phone call, and I felt that my provider was very professional. She explains things well, and I feel cared for.

Katie

Very wonderful service has allowed me to finaly be able to get the medical help and treatment I need at my convenience. A+

Derrick

I have really bad anxiety just at the thought of making a call to make an appointment. This made it possible to get the services I need.

Will

My primary care provider is so nice and helpful. The system is very easy user friendly, and the prices are reasonable compared to many other companies.

Stella

My provider was very caring and easy to deal with. She spent more time with me than any doctor I've had in the past decade. Highly recommended.

Keagan

I've already recommended it to someone else frustrated by their doctor not taking their ADHD symptoms seriously, which is so often the case.

Emerson

The best, most easy experience I’ve ever had! My provider has been tremendously knowledgeable and helpful.

Malia

I have already referred friends! Absolutely amazing team of providers, very convenient, and very easy to work with.

Mylee

Circle Medical is easy to use and accepts a lot of insurances. I felt like my provider cared about me and we have begun to form a relationship. In regular offices I always feel rushed or unheard but somehow Circle Medical feels more personal. Requesting a refill is easy and you can check on the status.

Anna

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

Very reliable and prompt services and didn’t have to wait for months for a appointment like my previous doctor.

Griffin

I’m very likely to recommend Circle Medical because of the progress that I have made. My provider has made it possible for me to accept and understand my ADHD with the upmost positivity and total honesty. I have never been able to love and accept myself till now.

Van

Quick, simple new patient forms and insurance info. Quick access. Great connection and no technology troubles!

Lorena

Always professional, always wise, always goes above and beyond!

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

June

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

Sarah Jane

I’ve had an amazing experience. I liked how I was able to read up on the providers to find the right fit for me. The provider I chose is absolutely the right fit and has worked with me to find the correct dosage of medication.

Roberto

So much easier than dealing with my antiquated primary care office! I used to have to wait on hold for at least ten minutes to make an appointment.

Levi

My provider is amazing. So trauma-informed and willing to listen. She was able to support me in ways so many others doctors had not over the years simply by listening to my concerns and all the ways I had tried to treat my condition on my own. This practice is excellent and I'm so grateful to have found them. I highly recommend Circle Medical.

Samara

Amazing practice. Every staff member has been nice, helpful, responsive... there are not enough adjectives to describe how great my experience has been with Circle Medical.

Dana

I felt heard. I felt educated by the provider. There’s so much stigma and such a shortage of psychiatrists. I felt alone and judged, but Circle was different.

Princess

The app is an easy and efficient way to meet with knowledgable medical professionals and establish a care plan and I’ve had a very positive experience from the help provided to me.

Dominick

It’s an awesome app. The providers and other staffs are so professional, they treat the patient with respect. They are also fast and reliable. The cost of visit is also reasonable.

Brooklyn

I like all three providers I have interacted with on Circle Medical. They are friendly and easy to talk with.

Ciara

Because I felt very heard and wasn’t embarrassed or shamed for needing to look into ADD medication in my 30s.

Jewel

I feel so much better!! I am so grateful for Circle Medical. Thank you all for listening to me and getting me the help I needed!
