Thunder Bay online prescription services

With a modestly growing population of over 130000 residents, Thunder Bay is facing a severe doctor shortage. According to 2023 estimates, 10,000–20,000 Thunder Bay residents (up to 1 in 5) cannot speak with a family doctor. This shortage forces many to rely on walk-in clinics or the ER for prescriptions and routine care. At Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre, non-urgent cases face longer wait times due to high volumes and limited beds.

Snowfall and icy roads frequently make travel dangerous, complicating in-person doctor visits for the citizens. That is why Your Doctors Online has been helping patients get their prescriptions remotely in Thunder Bay. Whether you’re in the City of Thunder Bay, Greenstone, Marathon, or the Township of Conmee, Dorion, or Gillies, our 24/7 telehealth services are accessible right from your phone.
