St. Thomas has a population of 38,909 residents and is known as the “Railway Capital” of Canada. Residents of St. Thomas often find it challenging to access immediate medical care. There are only a few walk-in clinics in the city and many have limited hours of operation. For instance, St Thomas Walk-In Medical Clinic at 230 First Ave is only open from 5:30pm to 8:30pm on weekdays and has reduced weekend hours. If you require medical care after hours, even for a minor health issue, your only alternative is to go to St Thomas Elgin General Hospital at 189 Elm St. and wait for hours to see a doctor.

Virtual Health Clinic has addressed these difficulties by offering online health and wellness services to the residents of St. Thomas. Residents can access a variety of medical services online from any location, from 8am to 9pm, 365 days a year including statutory holidays. Using their phone or computer, patients can speak with an online medical provider almost instantly and get their health concern assessed, diagnosed and treated. Through our virtual clinic patients can also receive new prescriptions and refills, lab requisitions, specialist referrals, medical notes, and more.
