Dial up your health, call Dial-A-Doc!
Ontario Licensed Doctors providing high quality, fast access care to Ontario patients from the comfort of their own home.
Started by Ontario Family Physicians whose goal was to reduce patient COVID exposure risk by speaking to patients on the phone rather than have them come into the doctors office or go to the Emergency department.
The goal is to offer an OHIP covered service that is free to Ontario residents and therefore patients avoid having to pay unnecessary fees associated with other similar sites.

Do you see all conditions?
As per CPSO Telemedicine policy we will only see conditions which we can provide a similar level of care that we would provide if the patient was seen in person. Serious and urgent conditions might be referred to the Emergency department due to the limitations of virtual care.
Do you fill all prescriptions?
We fill most prescriptions, but we will not prescribe controlled substances such as narcotics or benzodiazepines.
How will I receive any lab or radiology requisitions?
All lab and radiology & testing requisitions will be sent directly to you.
How soon will I connect with a doctor after signing up online?
All patients are called within 24 hours and are usually seen the same day. If you require emergency care, we do recommend that you call 911 or go to your nearest hospital.
How is Dial-a-Doc different from Telehealth Ontario?
Telehealth Ontario is a service that connects patients to a Registered Nurse to get health advice or information, but they do not offer a diagnosis or treatment. Dial-A-Doc works in conjunction with telehealth to help diagnose and treat patients and many patients are referred to Dial-A-Doc from Telehealth Ontario.
