I cry tears of joy and relief
It is sad to think about how normal healthcare is run. I had an appointment with a PCP in person 6 months in advance because that was the soonest appointment I could find in the city…. and then it was cancelled. The list goes on so long of the frustration and silliness with just trying to get medical help. So I signed up for Circle Medical, got an appointment within a few days. They do an intake, labs, a “physical” sort of, and then you can talk to them about your situation. My NP listened and was kind. She offered me a non controlled, non SSRI option for depression and ADHD and I have quite literally never been happier or more peaceful in my life. She gave an appropriate (not extreme) and inexpensive solution to try that seemed to be just what I needed. Doctors in offices are in so much of a rush that even when I do get an appointment, sometimes they just rush a prescription and it’s not appropriate for me. Anyways, Circle Medical is real. I don’t have health insurance right now, but oh my god, I have seriously gotten the most life changing and easiest medical care of my life and it costs less than the monthly cost of insurance. This is all to say that some techies had a dream to make accessible medical care and they worked really hard and now there’s someone like me whose life is completely altered because of it. Cheers to that.
