• Canadian telemedicine platform offering online physician consultations and secure results delivery through a patient portal. Requisitions can be used at participating labs in Ontario, British Columbia, and Alberta, including LifeLabs, Dynacare, and Alpha Labs.
• Services include STI testing and treatment, testosterone and endocrine lab testing and monitoring, testosterone prescriptions and testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), hormone and metabolic panels, PED monitoring bloodwork, birth control, weight management consultations, dermatology, and prescription renewals.
• Consultations use eligible provincial health coverage where available; otherwise transparent flat fees listed on the service pages.
