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? My role is to keep you as healthy as possible through preventative care, and to be there for you whenever you are not feeling your best. I am here to listen and work with you to come up with solutions together to give you the highest quality of life possible. What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? Every person and story is unique, and I love to listen and play detective to solve any problems that may be ongoing. It truly makes my day when I can help someone get better and that makes every day worth it! Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I am a crazy cat lady-sorry dog people! I love to hang out with my animals, go hiking, and fishing. I also love to bake-I make a mean chocolate chip cookie!

It has been fast and easy. The clinicians are great and I found my primary care through this. I love how they are even knowledgeable about LGBTQ+ stuff which is exactly what I've been looking for.

Emerson

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

Easy to schedule. My provider is great at answering my questions and really listens to my concerns!

Selena

The service is legitimate, much easier and less time wasted for medical help. I love how i can just have labs ordered on my own time, and how i don’t have to make an entire day out of seeing a doctor.

Curt

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

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

Giana

It has been a good experience for me. If I have any friends or family members who are looking for ADHD help, I will recomment Circle Medical.

Reginald

Ease of care, excellent provider who listened to my concerns, video apts from home on the weekend which makes it so much easier to have an appointment.

Annalise

Exceptional care from Day 1 all the way through current treatment. Couldn’t ask for a better service.

Rory

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

It was easy to navigate and I liked how the staff sent messages through the app to make sure I had all my documents uploaded.

Nathalie

Opportunity for an assessment of my health when local medical wouldn’t see me for more than 6 months.

Arabella

Excellent service and staff. Always on top of things and love getting the summary of the visit after each appointment.

Kason

My provider is FANTASTIC and I have already recommended Circle Medical to many people.

Candi

My provider was easy to work with. She's also licensed in both CA and FL where I split my time - which makes my medical care sooo much easier! She was lovely ♥️.

Jacki

My provider is amazing! She is the first person that I felt like has listened to me and tried to help. I recommend to everyone.

Kit

Ease of use, super convenient. Medical professional took time interviewing me and addressed my needs and concerns,

Thor

I found an amazing provider who has helped me more in the last few months than a team of specialists over the course of nearly a decade of care.

Mala

I work odd hours and having remote access to healthcare make it so much easier so I don’t have to call off work or leave work.

Christian

Such a convenient and easy process. Customer support is also great.

Cameron

It has provided me services that would be difficult to obtain otherwise, all from the comfort of my home.

Kallie

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

Very convenient for video appointments. Provider is very caring and considerate.

Riri

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

Easy process for booking, very helpful chat feature, they able to take care of pretty much everything including preauthorization with my provider.

Ernesto

Circle Medical has filled the access gap to consistent medical care and taken the frustration out of getting appointments and prescriptions. Your service is second to none.

Elaina

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

Providers were very understanding. Didn’t make me feel like I was chasing medication. My provider was very informative. The process was extremely quick and simple.

Olive

My provider is attentive and listens to me needs. She addresses any issues I have. She is never late to our meetings.

Remi

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

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.

Christian

My provider is really knowledgeable about her job and is very compassionate. My interactions with the other staff has been great too!

Travis

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

The process was quick and very efficient. The provider was very knowledgeable and I could tell that she really cared.

Bernard

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

Emerson

It's been a great platform so far. The response time and availability of the team have been the best.

TJ

Convenient & and efficient system. Services like this benefit patients and the country. This will save Americans from millions of hours of waiting in clinic lobbies, reduce emissions, reduce fuel consumption, reduce traffic, and drive efficiency in medical records and billing. All these things have a multiplier effect.

Siena

Great service. Professional providers. Never had an issue with billing or scheduling. Communication through the app has improved and availability has increased significantly. I’m seeing a massive improvement in my well-being and daily life thanks to their services and I couldn’t be more grateful. Thanks Circle Medical!

Dennis

Loved my visit and the fact I could make an appointment within a reasonable timeframe was amazing. Also not wasting time driving and waiting was a huge plus.
