“The first doctor I have came across in a longtime that actually set down and talk to me about my overall health and mental heath. He made me felt seen and heard. Didn’t rush our conversation just gave me nothing but knowledge and understanding of how our bodies work. I’m so happy to have a doctor like him that can stay on top of my care goals!!! If I could rate him 10 stars I would!!! Best doctor on the internet!!!”

About Benjamin Brackett

*Please note: Circle Medical is unable to see patients who are on a Medicaid or MediCal insurance plan, as it could result in you losing your insurance coverage. If after booking with us it is found that you have a plan that is part of Medicaid or MediCal, your appointment will be cancelled.* Benjamin Brackett is proud to be a member of Circle Medical, a digital-first, patient-focused experience that makes quality care more accessible than ever. The primary care provider (PCP) is they lynchpin in any person's health care system. The PCP is the quarterback and should coordinate between all the different specialists that are involved in the patient's care. It is the job of the PCP to look out for the patient and ensure that all the disparate pieces come together for benefit of the patient. Additionally, education is a critical component of caring for a patient. The patient is better able to contend with the daily nuances of a particular disease process, if they understand that their symptoms are in fact a normal part of the disease. Understanding helps both the physical and psychological aspects of a sickness, injury or chronic illness. Often, addressing the psychological needs will help alleviate or even eliminate the physical symptoms. I started as a firefighter/EMT at the age of 16 in suburban Philadelphia. As I grew and developed (EMT, Combat Medic, paramedic, , phlebotomist, epidemiologist, physician assistant) I noticed how many of my colleagues were disinterested or irritated by their patients. I always felt that every patient should be treated as I would want my grandmother treated, with honesty and respect. I became passionate about advocating for the patient. I strive to make the patient better, even if better just means that they leave the appointment with an iota more understanding of the disease process than when they came into the meeting.

Dr. Brackett was thoughtful, professional, and highly knowledgeable. He demonstrated a strong understanding of the topics we discussed, shared his experiences, and encouraged me to share mine. His expertise allowed him to communicate clearly and effectively, filling gaps in my understanding with statistics, history, and information.

Great Doc

This was not what I was looking for. I was trying to get an appointment set up for a primary care physician in my area. This provider was nowhere near my area. This provider kept his appointment time and listen to what I was looking for, and explain to me what I needed to do to accomplish what I was attempting.

Dr. Ben is a rockstar! My origional PCP of 10+ years moved out of state. My last one was a NIGHTMARE! I've definitely found a new doctor I can trust. Thanks very much.
