Board Certified, Family Medicine, 3 years of experience
What makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider? I enjoy helping people and watching the progress from poor health to wellness. It is rewarding to me to provide education and prevention of illness. 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? Primary care encompasses the mind and body. Our role as provider is to not only manage chronic illnesses such as diabetes, hypertension, hyperlipidemia but we must also focus on providing mental health. Mental health is a vastly underserved part of the patients overall wellbeing. Prevention of illness is also an important aspect of primary care. Tell us a little bit about yourself. What do you like to do in your spare time? I enjoy reading, going to the beach and spending time taking walks with my family in the state forest. I have 3 King Charles Cavalier Spaniels and enjoy working with the cavalier rescue when the opportunity arises.

Don't take our word for it.

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

The help I've received has been absolutely fantastic. The person who did my testing was friendly, polite, and obviously very talented. Made me feel safe to be able to open up and talk about my issues, and left me feeling very validated and heard.

Peyton

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

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

Ezra

I could not believe that I got an appointment for ADHD within hours. I had a terrible time trying to get an appointment with the group my insurance recommended. The health practitioner is knowledgeable and kind, and I feel like I'm getting both good physical and psychological support.

Alexis

The fact that I don't have to leave my house to get exceptional service from providers that actually care, is amazing. Everything about Circle Medical is great. I would 10 out of 10 recommend.

Johnny

I love how easy the app is to use and how Circle Medical makes healthcare accessible to everyone.

Macy

My experience with Circle has been great. The first, and my current provider is very caring and understanding. From my first appointment until now I was able to talk to her without feeling like my words were falling on deaf ears. I've already recommended Circle to my friend and I would reommend that anyone who needs any help shouldn't hesitate and make the right choice. It's nice to be able to say that!

Adison

I love not having to wait before my appointment begins in the lobby and not having to drive there also saves time. It was also great when I had COVID, as I did not have to expose anyone and still could get medical help. I also got life changing diagnosis of ADHD through Circle Medical. I LOVE MY PROVIDER, she is amazing!

Mariana

They have been beyond helpful. All of the staff have been kind and considerate and always get back to me in a timely manner. They have helped so much. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

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

I’ve been very impressed by Circle. They are using technology to solve access issues in healthcare. The tech is impressive and the support staff and practitioners are very professional and kind. Well done.

Mikey

The service is great and flexible and I love my provider! She is amazing. She listened to what I have to say and all my concerns that have been dismissed in the past with other doctors. She never makes me feel silly for my concerns and lets me vent about why I was concerned about it.

My provider is excellent. She is so personable and remembers me. It is easy to use and appointments are available both early or late in the day.

Their support has been quite helpful. Apparently certain meds are very hard to get right now but they are fighting for me. As someone with an auto immune disease, telehealth during Covid has been invaluable. I cannot risk getting sick, but must continue my mental health treatment.
