We asked Dr. Tanner some questions
Can you tell us more about your medical background and education?
I was an award-winning graduate of The Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. I joined Maple to be able to offer care to people who might not otherwise have access. My goal is to help my patients find a state of wellness through improving their physical health
What inspired you to become a doctor?
I enjoy living an active lifestyle, but unfortunately I’ve had to undergo three knee surgeries. Still, I didn’t want to let my surgeries stop me. I travelled the world and spent many hours researching different healthcare models. These experiences inspired me to make it my mission in life to help others. I don’t just treat conditions — I treat people.
What do you love the most about practising medicine?
I love taking my patients from a place of fatigue and frustration to a place of freedom. There are no words to describe the feeling of helping my patients to not only live, but to live healthier and happier lives. To succeed at anything in life, the one thing we need is our health. I believe that in order to feel fulfilled, we need to optimize our health and performance.
What’s your favourite part about practising on Maple?
Maple is a forward-thinking platform. To be a part of this movement in healthcare is very exciting. People living in condos or the countryside can get access to healthcare. I have the opportunity to help people across the province break down obstacles and create healthy lifestyle patterns.
If you could choose any other career, what would it be?
Oh my, I wish I had many lives to satisfy my inquisitive mind. Besides being a full-time parent, I would love to be a researcher, a graphic designer, a veterinarian, an athletic coach, and of course – an Olympian!
Can you share a health-hack that has made your life better?
I am a chocolate lover. To help my body stabilize its blood sugar levels, I always eat a square of dark chocolate with a handful of nuts after lunch. Dee-lish!
What do you do in your spare time?
I am a busy lady and I love it that way. I enjoy playing with my three kids, camping, skiing, running, and pretty much anything that gets me out in the sunshine!

A fantastic way to get medical advice when you are unable to see someone in person. The app is so simple to use. Highly recommend. I am not a tech savvy person but the doctor was kind enough to patiently walk me through every step of the process. Thank you.
Very easy to book a therapist and get appointment receipts.
The doctor willingly took the time to explain things to me.
Fast and effective tool for getting a diagnosis and prescription.
Saved me hours waiting in the ER.

This app is amazing! The doctor was so professional. I just waited 1-2 mins to get served! I highly recommend this app.
The most efficient and professional service ever. In less than an hour I was paired with a dermatologist who prescribed the medication required. A thorough consult and knowledgeable MD who made everything easy. My pharmacy had the prescription faxed in no time. I definitely see myself using the service in the future.
This was the best thing i've ever come across. I downloaded the app and one hour later had completed an appointment with a dermatologist who then faxed over 2 prescriptions to my pharmacy. I have been dealing with a terrible rash on my face since March with no hope in sight of getting into a dermatologist. When I found this app I was skeptical, but can honestly say it has saved my face, I am already seeing an improvement after 1 week.
Possibly the easiest way to meet a Dermatologist!
