Teladoc Health Canada has exciting opportunities for Canadian licensed physicians across primary care, acute care, and many areas of specialty care, to join a rapidly growing Canadian team of virtual practitioners to help shape the future of healthcare from coast to coast.

Provinces across Canada are engaging in dialogue and asking for support as our health system faces an emergency and primary care crisis. Teladoc Health is increasingly being asked to support provincially funded care delivery and as such is further building up clinical teams across the country.

Serving over 9 million Canadians for more than 20 years, Teladoc Health is the world leader in virtual care, operating in 175 countries, founded with the vision to create a world where great healthcare is always within reach. We are dedicated to caring for Canadians and our virtual physicians provide healthcare in several service areas, from general telehealth services and expert medical services to mental health services.

Clinician engagement, clinical quality, patient safety and healthcare innovation are crucial pillars to our overall mission as we seek impactful and connected healthcare across the country.

Teladoc Health Canada is looking for Emergency Room Physicians to join our clinical team as we grow rapidly across the country with a special focus on scaling up our Teladoc Acute Care Team (ACT). This is an opportunity to support patients in their own communities with quality healthcare and to add capacity to existing systems.

In such settings, we are intent on delivering a first point of contact to comprehensive, coordinated, and continuous patient care, helping provinces integrate and expand their virtual primary care & acute care visions.

The Emergency Room Physician works collaboratively with onsite nurses and other clinicians to treat patients via Teladoc Health remote devices. The technology features a high-definition camera to recreate a doctor-patient experience when conducting visual examinations, a four-speaker audio system for clear dialogue, and the ability to connect to peripherals which facilitate virtual assessments, such as stethoscopes, otoscopes, and hand-held exam cameras. The remote device also features a hand-held receiver for private conversations with onsite staff.

• Join an emergency medicine team that brings support to emergency departments virtually.
• Receive handover from prior medical team.
• Work closely with flow coordination team to prioritize patients and patient needs.
