Primary Care Doctor

*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.* Ruth is proud to be a member of Circle Medical, a digital-first, patient-focused experience that makes quality care more accessible than ever. Tell us what makes you passionate about being a healthcare provider. I’m a board certified family medicine physician, born and raised in a small town in Texas, where I was deeply inspired by my own family medicine doctor growing up. I love that this specialty allows me to care for patients of all ages and backgrounds, build lasting relationships, prevent and treat a wide range of health conditions, and help people live long, healthy, and happy lives. 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? In my opinion, the role of a primary care provider is to deliver high-quality, compassionate care that supports both physical and behavioral health. This means taking the time to truly listen so patients feel heard and valued, ensuring medical decisions are made collaboratively, and using clear, evidence-based guidance to promote long-term well-being and quality of life.
