As we know, the healthcare system in Canada can be very frustrating at times. YourDoctors has saved me countless hours in clinic waiting rooms with impatient staff who don't actually listen to me. I've been able to get a same day ADHD assesment, prescription for depression, as well as a minor things like medicine for strep throat. All without leaving the house.
~Madeleine Ruth Trustpilot
Well- it was so efficient. I would probably have to wait 1-4 weeks to see a doctor in Victoria, BC, Canada. This took 1 min. They addressed my health issues and my prescription will be ready in less than 2 hours. Brilliant
~Mary Chinnick Google Play Store
This is the way health care should be in Canada! Literally saved me a 4-8 hour wait had I went to emergency and a 2-5 hour wait at a walk in clinic. The way life is so busy and everyone’s on the go this is definitely the most convenient and practical way of seeking help!!!
~Lazar pink89 App Store
This service is amazing. They offer me so much peace of mind as a parent of two young kids. A paid service like this isn’t ideal in Canada but it’s saved me countless hours of working to get appointments and waiting in waiting rooms with other sick people. It’s worth every penny. The service is a must have for my family from now on.
~Alisha MacKinnon Trustpilot
Doctors online is an amazing service. Just got off the chat with the doctor. He diagnosed my child and prescribed medicine to him. My only other option in Canada was to go to ER and spend 7 to 16 hrs.

Virtual care vs walk-in clinic:
why Canadians are making the switch
Canada is the second-largest country in the world. Its size creates unique opportunities for how people access healthcare across different regions. Many communities rely on walk-in clinics, hospitals, and family practices that work hard to support local patients, especially in busy urban centres and expanding rural areas.
Today, more than 6.5 million Canadians are seeking a family doctor or nurse practitioner, and many patients wait days or weeks for basic care or travel long distances for appointments.
With our online walk-in clinic, you can get medical care in less than 5 minutes.
| Feature | Your Doctors Online | Walk-in clinic |

| Availability | 24/7 access from anywhere in Canada | Limited hours, often closed on evenings and weekends |
| Travel required | No travel, get care from home, work, or on the go | May require you to travel 35 km or more to see a doctor |

| Appointment scheduling | No booking needed, start instantly | Often requires scheduling appointments a week or two in advance |
| Common care needs | Prescriptions, refills, doctor’s notes, lab requisitions, referrals under one subscription plan | Asks you to wait days, weeks, or even months to refill for birth control, get antibiotics for UTI symptoms, and more |
| Provincial health coverage | No | Yes |
Frequently asked questions
What is Your Doctors Online?
Your Doctors Online is a 24/7 virtual clinic that connects you with licensed healthcare providers through chat, audio, or video. You can get medical advice, prescriptions, lab orders, and doctor’s notes, and other healthcare services from your phone without going to a clinic.
Can I talk to a doctor instantly?
Yes. Our goal is to connect you to our physicians in under a minute, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You will be connected to a doctor in less than 30 seconds, and there is no need to book days or weeks in advance for your appointment.
Are your doctors licensed?
Yes. All supervising physicians on Your Doctors Online are licensed in the regions where they practice. They follow the same standards of care as in-person clinics and comply with the regulations of their provincial medical college.
What health concerns can a phone appointment with a doctor help me with?
We provide virtual care for most of the health concerns you’d usually bring to a walk-in clinic, such as:
- Fever, cold, and flu
- Urinary tract infections
- Skin issues (rashes, acne, sores)
- Stomach problems (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation)
- Allergies
- Mild psychological problems (anxiety, low mood)
If we can’t safely manage your condition online, we’ll advise where to go next.
When should I not use Your Doctors Online?
Virtual doctors are helpful for many everyday health concerns, but they aren’t the right choice for emergencies. Call 911 or visit your nearest emergency department if you experience:
- Chest pain or difficulty breathing
- Signs of a stroke (face drooping, arm weakness, speech trouble)
- Severe injury or heavy bleeding
- Sudden, intense pain
- Thoughts of harming yourself or others
For safety reasons, we also don’t prescribe controlled medications (such as narcotics or benzodiazepines). If your condition requires an in-person assessment, our licensed doctors will guide you on the next steps, so you receive the right care.
Can you prescribe medications?
Yes. You can get online prescriptions for most non-controlled medications when it’s appropriate. Here are a few examples:
You will get free prescription delivery to your preferred Canadian pharmacy, and in many cases, you can also get home delivery, depending on local pharmacy options. We do not prescribe controlled substances (for example, narcotics, opioids, or certain stimulant medications).
Can I get a doctor’s note online?
Yes. If our online doctor determines it’s appropriate, they will provide you with one in minutes. You’ll receive a PDF of a Canadian sick note with the doctor’s name, license details, and contact information, which you can download.
Can I access lab tests and imaging requisitions?
Yes. Our doctors can provide requisitions for blood work, X-rays, and other tests when medically indicated during the audio or video chat. You take the requisition to a local lab or imaging centre, and the results are sent back for review.
Can I get virtual care for my children or other family members?
Yes. Our family-friendly plans allow you to get care for yourself and eligible family members (such as your children or spouse). You’ll be able to choose who the visit is for when you start a health consultation.
Is my information private?
Yes. Your privacy is a top priority. We use end-to-end encryption and store data securely in compliance with PIPEDA privacy laws in the regions we serve. Your information is never shared with third parties without your consent, except where required by law or for your care (for example, sending prescriptions or lab orders).
