Need to schedule your own appointment

WELL Health VirtualClinic+ does not offer on-demand visits. You must be willing to wait for a video consultation with a doctor.

Depending on the availability of physicians, your appointment may not occur instantly.

You must choose your own doctor

You must find and select the doctor you want to see from hundreds of different physicians, which complicates the booking process.

This means it may take more time for you to find the right physician, then schedule an appointment with them.

No text chat available

To use Well Health VirtualClinic+, you must schedule a video or audio consultation with a physician.

No text option is given when booking an appointment. You won’t get the option of having a consultation strictly over text messaging if this is what you prefer.

Not available Canada-wide

If you live in British Columbia, access to physicians on Well Health VirtualClinic+ may be limited.

This may make it more difficult to find the right physician.

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.

Super impressed with this service. Without a family doctor, it’s easy to feel alone with no care. Very thankful to have options.

So fast and efficient. A process that would have ordinarily involved a referral and a six months wait was completed in less than 72 hours. Wholeheartedly recommend Maple.
