See a gynecologist online — OHIP-covered appointments

A gynecologist is a doctor with specialized training in women’s health and the reproductive system. They can diagnose and treat conditions and diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), perimenopause, menopause, irregular or heavy periods, pelvic pain, vaginal infections, painful intercourse, and more.

With Maple, you can book an OHIP-covered appointment at a time that’s convenient for you, and you can speak to the doctor via audio or video from your phone, tablet, or computer.

Your consultation will be very similar to that of an in-person appointment, except you don’t have to leave home. The gynecologist will go over your medical history, including medications, allergies, and surgeries. When it’s time for your appointment, you can choose to speak to the doctor via audio or video.

First, you’ll be asked to share your OHIP card. From there, the gynecologist will discuss your health concerns and work with you to recommend a treatment plan, including any necessary prescriptions, if appropriate.

If the doctor provides you with a prescription, you can pick it up at any pharmacy or have it delivered right to your door at no additional cost.

You’ll also be able to book an OHIP-covered follow-up appointment after you’ve completed your initial consultation for further guidance.

Depending on your specific health concerns and needs, the gynecologist may recommend doing tests during your first consultation. If this is the case, you’ll be sent lab requisition forms right in the Maple app which you can take to any lab to get done.
