About Zakiya James
*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.*
Zakiya James is proud to be a member of Circle Medical, a digital-first, patient-focused experience that makes quality care more accessible than ever. She earned her Master's in Physician Assistant Studies from Towson University, equipping her with the knowledge and skills to provide comprehensive care.
I love being a public servant who can aid in helping others maintain their physical and mental health.
In my opinion, the primary care provider should be the gatekeeper for their patient, addressing both physical health and behavioral health needs to ensure holistic well-being.
In my spare time, I love to spend time with family.

She took notes while I was sharing hx which turned me off but I realized she really was listening and didn’t rush me at all. I felt like she listened to my concerns and addressed each of them. Has also had good communication and follow up.

Although I was nervous about the appointment, Zakiya was a true professional. I currently have a male PC and it was a world of difference speaking to a woman! Her inquiry’s about my overall health was sincere and I’m looking forward to my next visit.
