Circle Medical is building the future of primary care, online and in-clinic.

Can we make finding and getting great healthcare easier (and faster) than ordering lunch?

That was the question Circle Medical's cofounders asked each other in 2014. After finding early success in other startups, and seeing how technology and great software was making everything from food delivery to travel simpler, faster, easier, and more fun, they were driven to bring those same improvements to healthcare.

Circle Medical built a team that paired software engineers with top doctors to help build a software platform that wasn't just easier for patients to use, but was also designed to make doctors and other providers more effective and efficient at providing care. We started seeing patients in person in our San Francisco clinic in 2017.

Deeply committed to not only increasing access but also improving the quality of care, in 2019 Circle Medical entered into a 4 year partnership with UCSF, one of America's top 10 hospitals. As our team continued to refine the Circle Medical App and our proprietary Medical Records software, we also built relationships with America's top insurance companies, ensuring that most Americans with health insurance have plans that are accepted by Circle Medical.

When the COVID-19 pandemic changed online medicine forever, Circle Medical leaned into being able to provide exceptional access to great medical care to anyone, from anywhere.

We now see over 50,000 patients a month nationwide, and are in the process of opening up clinics in cities around the US, from New York to Miami and Los Angeles.

What guides us:

Care deeply for patients

Be honest and transparent

Embrace diversity and be curious

Move with urgency

Test assumptions and act on evidence

Know you are empowered to make change

What makes us different

Circle Medical is driven to make high quality healthcare delightful, personal, and accessible to everyone, no matter who you are.

Everything we do starts by putting patients first, and ensuring that each decision we make is based on providing the best possible health outcomes.

That is why we follow a philosophy of evidence-based care, and never rely on "that's how it's always been done" thinking. It is also why we operate with exceptional transparency, and empower all providers, patients, or employees to step up and fix problems, suggest new ideas, and find ways to make things better for patients.

We work to be as effective and efficient as possible, and to do so with urgency that responds to the rapidly changing pace of healthcare and technology.

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

The best care provider I've ever had.

Rover

This service saves me hours a month waiting in a doctors office driving to and from. This is time I get to be home with my family. My provider at Circle Medical is not only friendly but extremely knowledgeable.

Ezequiel

I’ve come to my provider with 3 different issues and so far she’s been very receptive to all 3. The assistants are very fast to respond by chat in the app to any medication questions, billing questions and scheduling questions I’ve had. I adore not having to drag my kids to the babysitters to go to my PCP for every little issue. I’ve been able to get my needs met quickly and efficiently with Circle Medical and to be honest, I was super skeptical when I started. I thought there was no way it would be easy, but I honestly has been.

Allie

Easy process, excellent providers and a phenomenal app experience.

Nick

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

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

Very easy to use and great providers. Mine is very personable and helpful.

Jack

I put off my mental health for a long time. It took me a lot of courage just to click Book Appointment. It was so easy, the first appointment was great and constructive, The second was scheduled for 3 days later, and I got a treatment plan from my Mental Health Professional within hours.

Kyle

Your app is the best I’ve used, and I design apps for a living. I absolutely love my provider. She’s so kind and caring and very easy to talk to.

Barbara

My practitioner was extremely friendly and empathetic, and an expert at ADHD and ADD so he knew exactly how to help me and with questions to ask.

Uriah

Very smooth and easy process to get in touch with knowledgeable doctors who care. The patient care coordinators are always quick to respond in resolving issues as well. Highly recommend!

Trent

Very convenient and easy to use. You can choose any provider you want and also choose the exact issue you're seeking help for. All the staff is super friendly and help you in a matter of hours.

Lana

Circle is the only part of the healthcare value chain that doesn't waste my time and money.

Patrick

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

Candi

My care provider is phenomenal and the ability to book appointments and complete them online is so convenient.

Dora

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.

Ryan

Circle Medical is ultra convenient, and my provider is thoughtful, professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. This is the future of healthcare!

Lilian

I’ve never had any issues with the app or my provider. My provider is very thorough and pleasant to talk to. The app is well designed and never buggy. Responses are fast and easy to navigate with the care staff. Circle is a life saver for me as a trans person. I’m so thankful to have found you all!

Kymani

Very convenient, easy to get an appointment, provider visits have been very efficient and professional. I felt like the provider listened to my concerns and gave me the care I needed.

Ricky

I have a great working relationship with my provider. It is really easy to get care, and feel cared for even in a virtual meeting.

Cardi

My provider is great. Answers all of my questions before our visit ends. I originally used Circle Medical because I couldn’t get an appointment with a provider in person, but because of my experience I decided to keep Circle as my primary care provider.

Thalia

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

Easy access, no run around. Blown off by at least 3 different doctors before finding Circle and my diagnosis/treatment has immensely improved my life.

Micaela

My provider has been an amazingly attentive, caring, and informative professional. The accessibility that this group provides is helping me take control of my health.

Jack

Access is convenient, and good experience with clinician.

Samantha

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 service and care that I have received has been beyond exceptional. I already have and will continue to recommend friends to Circle Medical.

Makenzie

Scheduling was easy. Appointments started on time. I needed help with some preauthorization stuff for a prescription and the response time was quick and efficient via chat.

Messiah

Circle Medical has been extremely patient-oriented and has helped me feel like I’m in good hands with my Mental Health. Receiving my medications on-time with no issues.

Bailee

I have had nothing but good experiences with Circle Medical. Being able to find the right treatment for my disorder has changed my life

Piper

I've had a great experience with this service. The provider is friendly welcoming understanding. The process is very easy.

Damon

Very easy platform to use, providers are knowledgable, easy to make appointments that fit in my busy schedule.

Madelyn

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

Cristina

Everything is very easy to use and convenient. Everyone I have interacted with from Circle has been so nice and helpful as well.

Sarah

As far as I’m concerned, this is the future of healthcare. I’ve transitioned all of my primary care to Circle Medical as well as my ADHD management. I’m amazed at the weekend and off hour options, which are a life saver for a busy professional like myself. I recommend this service to anyone who is looking to get a PCP or evaluated for ADHD. Your customer service is top notch and I’ve never had an issue with insurance or my prescriptions. I’m so glad I found your company!

Quincy

Ease and simplicity of signing up, scheduling, communicating, and not having to waste time going to an office. Saves hours and hours of time per year.

Clarence

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

Arabella

I have recommended to several friends. The process, UI, and providers are very quick and caring. It is perhaps the easiest to use system I’ve ever seen. I highly highly recommend the organization.

Zeke

My new provider is very nice and very helpful. The process was super simple and I’m able to schedule appointments easily

Convenient, knowledgeable, professional with a personal touch.
