Board Certified, Family Medicine, 15 years of experience
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? I believe in treating holistically - mind, body and spirit. I believe that without wellness in all three of these areas, the others can not be optimal. What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? I feel my purpose is to help people by maximizing their wellness, whatever they define that to be. I believe all people deserve quality healthcare. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I work as a voice over artist for audio books. I enjoy baking and working in my woodshop and gardening.

Don't take our word for it.

We are trusted by over 50,000 patients every month. Here's what they have to say.

I finally found a provider who cares about me as a patient. She took time to go over my medical history and went to great lengths to go over how ADHD has affected me and we came up with goals that I want to achieve under her care. Medication isn’t the only avenue for someone living with ADHD.

Eliza

Circle Medical has been very easy to use. I use Circle Medical for my ADHD treatment and it has been amazing. My provider is fantastic, the hours are flexible, and the reminders help keep me on track. I was sick earlier in the year and needed immediate care, which I was able to schedule in minutes. I used to use MDlive for my primary/urgent care, but I’ve switched entirely to Circle.

Mario

I have tried a few online medical providers and they did not have very good communication. Circle Medical has been great with communication and responses! Would recommend them to anyone!

Kymani

Very easy to use, caring employees, fair prices, quick treatment.

Sasha

I love having a primary care provider to work with me on getting the correct medication needed to function. I love the convenience of the telehealth appointments as well.

Tiffani

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

Kason

Circle Medical made primary care accessible in a timely way, informative, and affordable. The app increased ease of use and access, and I would recommend the service to anyone looking for consistent, helpful, available primary care.

Kaitlin

The efficiency of not having to go to an office and the flexible hours are great!

Tina

The provider was very helpful and I felt she genuinely cared. Appointment was scheduled for next day. Quick, efficient, great service.

Kamari

Process is seamless. Team is professional. It could not be easier to work with them.

Harriet

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 app is easy to use, appointment scheduling is convenient, there are lots of providers to choose from, and the providers are supportive, explain things well, and are non-judgemental.

Sabrina

Excellent service! Kind, considerate, and professional.

Carrie

My provider at Circle Medical had to take time off for surgery. The transition to a new provider was flawless. I was apprecative of this as I needed a refill of my Rx. This organization of medical professionals continues to impress me.

Brielle

The providers have been wonderful appointments are easy and always on time. The staff is quick and very responsive in chat.

Fernanda

It was easy to use. The provider was extremely attentive, and actually listened. Coming from a primary care office that had terrible client service, Circle Medical was really a breath of fresh air. Thank you to this team for helping me get the treatment I need.

Malik

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

America

I referred a friend just yesterday. The reason why is I went through 5 other similar companies before I found this one that checks every box plus extra credit.

Rayan

I have felt heard, believed and taken care of by my provider. I am so happy with telehealth and having access to a wonderful provider through Circle Medical.

Giuliana

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.

Yolanda

It was accessible, period. I could get an appointment that was not months out like most local doctors. Gave me records that documented my history. Made it possible to receive care online/virtually.

Rosemary

At-home appointments, wonderful providers and customer service when I need to speak with my provider. Can’t recommend enough especially for a busy, full time working mom of 3!

Neveah

Circle Medical has been great! They are cost-effective, efficient and get me the care I need with a busy schedule!

Walter

It's easy to book an appointment, the physicians are nice and the customer service is great.

Ezra

Providers are compassionate, supportive and clear

Hailey

Its extremely user friendly, and the Doctors, PAs and NPs are of the absolute highest quality.

Cara

I recommend Circle Medical to everyone. Before it would take 6 months to make an appointment, then I'd have to take a day off work, it would take 4 hours to go through and see the doc. Between driving there, checking in, waiting in the big waiting room, then the small waiting room, seeing the MA then finally the doc, it would be a huge day-eating event. Circle Medical makes it so easy! I don't need to take a day off work, no waiting in waiting rooms, same day appointments, you can't beat it!

Rodolfo

The convenience is amazing. I can always find an appointment with the same person 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. Sometimes in an hour. It feels like a concierge service. I can call whenever I want. Make an appointment when I want, and get quick answers to all of my questions.

Seamus

My provider was absolutely lovely and I had a much better experience in general with Circle Medical than I ever have with any psychiatrist.

Bobby

The whole experience has been fantastic.

Jade

They are quick, professional, and responsive by app. They also take my insurance — what more can I ask for?

Sharon

Circle Medical was able to get me the help and care I needed when I needed it most. Local doctors and health services were too booked to be able to help me soon enough. Circle got me connected with health professionals quickly and with ease. Quite simply, Circle saved my life.

Reese

They listen. I finally got put on meds that help.

Jonas

I made an appointment quickly and easily, the medical practitioner that met me for my appointment was prompt, knowledgeable and mature, and billing/insurance is seamless.

Lincoln

Very professional service. I was able to be seen right away and there was complete follow up with my prescription. Thank you!

Shane

Great experience! I love my provider! She listens to all my concerns. And gives wonderful advice! Very knowledgeable, kind and understanding.

Asia

Very convenient to use and the practitioner I’m using is incredibly sweet, listens, and doesn’t rush me.

Julien

Amazing care with exceptional convenience! Telehealth should be much more mainstream. I'm very glad to have found Circle Medical.

Kimberly

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
