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.

After struggling with finding a doctor and navigating appointment management systems and nebulous cost expectations, Circle was a breath of fresh air that gave me a clear path towards getting care and getting everything else out of the way.

Very easy to schedule and wonderful provider who listens to my concerns.

Circle Medical is a much more convenient way to see a doctor. No taking days off work, sitting around in waiting rooms or fighting traffic to make the appointment.

Lilianna

Circle Medical has been absolutely amazing to me. I have been a patient at Circle Medical for about 7 months now and the experience has just been awesome. From day 1 I have been welcomed with open arms. I do video visits right in the comfort of my own home, how convenient is that? My provider is awesome, so sweet and comforting and motivating.

Ronisha

After struggling with finding a provider and navigating appointment management systems and nebulous cost expectations, Circle was a breath of fresh air that gave me a clear path towards getting care and getting everything else out of the way.

Aileen

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

It's just been an easy process and this is the first time where I feel like my provider really wants to get to know me as a person and not just another appointment.

Randall

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.

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

The provider was pleasant to work with and made me feel comfortable to talk about my symptoms. The whole process was very easy and stress free.

Daniella

The best experience ever, I live in a small town where I know my providers personally and sometimes it’s hard to admit where you struggle. It was so nice to have someone that I could talk to in private and that listened and was so thorough and helpful in every way. Very easy experience and I wish I would have done it sooner! Great company!

Vivian

My provider is the most helpful primary care physician I have ever had. Very easy to set and have appointments, very happy with the service.

My provider was very kind and helpful. She listened to my needs and helped to appropriately diagnose me. I feel very confident in her as a provider.

Souvya

Circle Medical has in all honesty provided me with the most attentive, compassionate, and informed health care I've ever received. Being able to get care that fits with my demanding and unusual work schedule is a game- changer. So many times in the past I've been unable to access care I needed, or follow-up care, because of travel issues, time constraints, and my own anxiety & depression.

Selah

Very good experience so far. My provider has been very wonderful -- very attentive and easy to talk to.

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.

Xiomara

I am very impressed by Circle Medical and its providers. I have already recommended that my husband and son join.

Kiersten

Telehealth has given me access to healthcare that without it, I would have to days off of work to obtain. Ease of access has been a life saver.

Zechariah

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 appreciated the swift, clear assistance I got with Circle Medical. I liked that I could be evaluated and treated from home.

Aliza

Easy, fast booking, respectful treatment, great documentation and communication. My provider listens to me, takes my input into account and treats me like an equal, not like an annoyance. Can't recommend enough, A+++++

Tommy

I love Circle Medical! I have a very busy life with a constantly changing schedule and it can be very challenging to plan for my doctor's appointments. With my providers on Circle Medical however, I can meet with my provider any place that I feel comfortable talking about whatever is going on.

Joanna

They have made this service so easy and convenient. Communication is thorough, and their team of professionals are polite, efficient, compassionate, and clearly passionate about their work.
