Next, you'll hear from the doctor
Doctors can provide a prescription for most treatments — if the doctor can help, your consultation will start right away and you'll be speaking directly over chat or video.
If the doctor can't help, your visit will not start and you won't incur a charge. The doctor will let you know if you need to visit a family practice or walk-in clinic instead.
For example, doctors can't provide prescriptions for narcotics or opiates. Certain treatments that need an in-person appointment cannot be completed either.
Hi Sandra, here’s the treatment I’m recommending for you:

Simply log in to your account and request a consultation. Doctors can prescribe you refills at their discretion.
How do online prescriptions work?
Similar to in-person visits, you’ll have a consultation with the doctor online, and they’ll determine whether they can give you a prescription on Maple.

You also have the option to get it delivered right to your door at no additional cost. We’re collaborating with partner pharmacies to offer convenient, reliable prescription deliveries across Canada.
