Requesting a consultation on Maple is easy.

1. Describe your symptoms through our app

Open the app and click the "See the doctor" button. One of our doctors will review your request and respond in minutes.

2. Chat with a doctor

Next, you'll be connected to the doctor. You can have your consultation by text, video or audio chat in the Maple app.

3. Get a diagnosis or prescription

Doctors can diagnose and provide prescriptions as necessary during your consultation.

Simple, Fast, Secure

Once you’ve entered your symptoms, a doctor will review your file. If our doctors believe they’ll be able to help you online, you’ll be speaking directly with the doctor over chat or video — whichever you feel more comfortable with — in minutes.

If the doctor cannot help, your visit won’t start and you won't be charged. The doctor will let you know if you need to visit a family practice or walk in clinic instead.

Patients love using Maple

We’re changing the way healthcare is delivered, and people love it!

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.

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.

— Sheila R.

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!

How does virtual healthcare work?
