Self-isolation and social distancing may make it difficult to see your Dr. for non Covid related health concerns. Our physicians are available to see Albertans for any care normally covered by your family doctor or walk-in clinics. Visit PurposeMed.com to see a Dr. now.

Family doctors are still providing care to patients & I want to encourage anyone who needs care to call their doctor. Most family doctors can do virtual visits by phone or other means & can determine how to best get patients the care they need.

Our founder joined Ryan Jesperson on his show today. Listen to hear how we’re helping Albertans. omny.fm/shows/ryan-jespersen…
Today's @ryanjespersen show: can #AB go it alone for #COVID19 tests and treatments? We ask @Lorian_H. We talk to the co-creator of @purpose_med, as well as funding for #TFWs with @CFAFCA. And, a check in with the @AlbertaParty's @jacquiefenske.

Dr. @HuseinMoloo, Artsci’06, launched a new website @purpose_med which is keeping hundreds of people out of emergency rooms by allowing doctors to connect virtually with patients during the #COVID19 pandemic. #queensu #FrontLineHeroes queensu.ca/alumni/news/docto…

The term ‘flattening the curve’ is all over my Twitter, and I had a patient ask me what this meant today. With my epidemiologist colleagues @leroberts87_ and @LauraARiveraMPH help, here are some tweets to explain why we are canceling social events because of #Covid_19

We're busy working on our physician platform so clinics can speak directly to their patients through virtual care. Any Drs interested in providing input into how telemedicine should be delivered please DM for details.

I would like to take a moment to say thank you.
Thank you to the doctors, nurses, lab techs, 811 operators, and health care workers on the front lines and behind the scenes, who are working so tirelessly to care for us and keep us safe. (1/2)

If you’re feeling sick, #stayhome, and encourage others to do the same. Help reduce the spread of illnesses like #COVID19. #coronavirus #flattenthecurve

Thank you for your concern! To be clear I have some mild "cold-like" symptoms. I have not been directed by @AHS_media to get tested for #COVID19. Stay safe and healthy everyone!

I’ll be doing a lot of my #COVID19 updates from home for the next while. I have some mild symptoms so the responsible thing for me to do is stay home.I will still be giving regular updates...

We know it’s still difficult to get through to 811. Albertans seeking timely medical advice can speak to Drs free of charge on PurposeMed.com. @nenshi @doniveson
