Get a prescription, lab work request, imaging request, speciality clinic referral, or mental health support in about 15 minutes. With over 50 years of collective nursing experience, we provide the care you need, when you need it. Here’s how we help:

  • We save you valuable time. Average Emergency Department wait times for non-urgent patients is between 3-5 hours and it can take up to 6 weeks to see a doctor. Our waiting times are on average 30 minutes from booking an appointment to seeing a nurse during clinic hours.
  • We save you money. 75% of medical costs accrued mostly due to preventable conditions. With our team, you can reduce your health spending by up to 75%.
  • We decrease health risks. 4 out of 5 Canadians are at risk for high blood pressure, heart issues, diabetes, and cancer. Prevent chronic disease and reduce risks by learning about how we optimize your health through education and conversation. We work together to create a plan that works for you.
  • We’re convenient and patient-focused. From your phone or mobile device (with a camera) you can sign up and book an appointment that fits into your schedule. You choose the nurse that best fits your health needs.
