Akira

On-demand access to Canadian doctors by text and video.

Tuesday, May 17, 2016

Akira is like having a doctor in your pocket. Take out your phone, press a button, and you can start texting with a board-certified Canadian doctor. It's on-demand, so they'll typically respond within 30 seconds. Your doctor can also initiate a video call right away if needed, or you can book a call for a specific time. Akira doctors can write prescriptions, or lab tests, or refer to specialists - basically everything a doctor at a walk-in clinic could do. Our goal is to keep you out of waiting rooms! Our ultimate mission is to bring high-quality medicine to all of humanity.
