The Maple mobile app is here, and we think you’ll love it

Why? Because now you can instantly speak to a doctor right from your smartphone for advice, diagnosis, or prescriptions.

We wanted you to be able to see a doctor right from your phone. Since launching Maple last year, we’ve had thousands of patients across Canada log in from a laptop or computer to see a doctor for common medical issues via our live chat or video service.

After all, getting out of the house or the office to see a doctor when you are sick is not always easy. Why sit in a doctor’s office next to other sick people, or in the ER for hours if you don’t have to?

With millions of patients globally using solutions just like Maple to connect with healthcare professionals from their smartphones each and every single day, we knew we had to go mobile! Our teams have been working incredibly hard to create what we feel is the best online care mobile app in the industry. Just how exactly does it work? Keep reading for a super brief summary.

Requesting a consultation on Maple is easy – here’s how it works:

1. Download the app by visiting the App Store or Play Store
2. Open the app and click on the “See the doctor now” button
3. The app uses your location to match you with a licensed doctor
4. Enter your symptoms or a description of your medical request
5. Payment is required if you do not have employer/insurer coverage
6. The doctor reviews your request and responds to you in minutes
