Online doctors in Northwest Territories
The Northwest Territories are a beautiful northern federal territory of Canada. The capital, Yellowknife, is known as the diamond capital of North America. The Northwest Territories has many gorgeous forests and lakes, which can be explored year round if you bundle up properly.
Many people in the Northwest Territories live outside of the main urban centers. They need to travel via unpaved roads or by regional airlines to leave their communities. That’s why we created Maple — to make online care accessible in the Northwest Territories and the rest of Canada.
Need a diagnosis, medical advice, or an online prescription in the Northwest Territories? Our doctors can help! See a doctor on demand in under two minutes, and get the care you need from the comfort of your home.

What health plans are available in the Northwest Territories?

What specialists can I see in the Northwest Territories with Maple?
Accessibility to health care is a big concern in the Northwest Territories, as population density is much lower than in other regions of Canada.

It’s quick and easy to book, and you get to stay in the comfort of your home.

Saves a lot of time compared to sitting in a doctor's office!
Legitimate and just as described, with fabulous doctors. Totally fills the late-night worry gap!
Not having to endure a long wait at a walk in clinic is fabulous. Especially since I have twin pre-schoolers to contend with.
The service is so quick and professional and saves hours spent in a walk-in-clinic. This is a game changer for busy moms and I recommend it to everyone!
Instead of my husband having to drag both kids to the hospital or walk in alone he was able to see a doctor right away and get a prescription faxed to our local pharmacy.
Our family has used this service twice so far and it has been amazing. Both doctors were friendly, compassionate and you never feel rushed.
Was concerned I wouldn’t be able to see a doctor without an appointment. I installed the Maple app, spoke to a doctor and had my prescription in under 30 min.
I used Maple for the first time today. It was quick and easy, took less than ten minutes including connecting time and the doctor was professional and friendly.
LOVE This service. Not only do you have a doctor within seconds but they are professional and knowledgable.
