Our team of 90+ clinicians, care coordinators, engineers, and designers are all motivated by our mission to bring healthcare to those who need it.
Why we started PurposeMed
We started PurposeMed because we believe virtual care has the potential to equalize how care is provided to people, regardless of their social status, income, ethnicity, sexual orientation, ability or gender identity.
Canada has one of the best healthcare systems in the world. But it is broken for many people. For example, First Nations Canadians have a life expectancy that is 11 years shorter than the broader population. LGBTQ2S+ Canadians face higher rates of mental health challenges, certain cancers and chronic conditions.
Our mission
Our mission is to improve access to complex care for underserved communities.
We do this by re-imagining how healthcare works. Our team works tirelessly to empower the best clinicians, automate low value tasks and develop novel care pathways. So that we can build services that deliver better outcomes for our patients.
Want to help us build the future of healthcare?
We are actively recruiting clinicians, engineers, designers, marketers, and for operations.
