121Clinicians — Virtual Medical Care for Private Patients in BC

Fast, accessible telehealth for visitors, newcomers, and non-MSP residents across British Columbia.

121Clinicians connects you with experienced, licensed BC physicians from anywhere in the province. Whether you are visiting BC, studying abroad, waiting for your provincial health card, or simply need prompt care without a wait-list, we provide secure virtual consultations, digital prescriptions, lab requisitions, and medical documentation—with zero commute required.

Who Qualifies as a Private Patient?

If you do not currently hold an active British Columbia Medical Services Plan (MSP) card, you can be seen as a private self-pay patient. This includes:

• Visitors & Tourists: International travellers needing prompt medical advice, illness evaluation, or medication continuity while in BC.
• Residents of Other Canadian Provinces: Individuals visiting or working temporarily in BC who need immediate virtual care (official receipts provided for private or provincial reimbursement).
• International Students: Students attending BC institutions who are uninsured by MSP or awaiting private student health plan processing.
• Temporary Foreign Workers & Extended Visitors: Professionals and seasonal workers in BC on work permits or temporary visas.
• New BC Residents in the Waiting Period: Individuals relocating to British Columbia who are completing the standard waiting period for MSP coverage.

Common Conditions & Services We Cover

• Prescription Renewals & Continuity: Refills for routine medications, forgotten maintenance drugs, or travel-related prescription extensions sent directly to any BC pharmacy.
• Acute Illnesses (Cold, Flu & Infections): Timely treatment for cough, fever, sore throat, sinus congestion, ear discomfort, or seasonal allergies.
• Skin, Eye & Minor Conditions: Treatment for rashes, mild burns, cuts, pink eye (conjunctivitis), and insect bites.
• Sexual & Reproductive Health: Birth control consultations, emergency contraception, UTI treatment, and discreet STI screening requisitions.
• Digestive & General Health: Relief for stomach upset, nausea, acid reflux, migraines, and routine flare-ups.
• Lab & Diagnostic Requisitions: Official digital requisitions for LifeLabs blood work and outpatient medical imaging across BC.
• Medical Documentation & Sick Notes: Verified medical certificates and doctor’s notes for travel, school, or employers.

*Please note: In accordance with College guidelines, our virtual physicians do not prescribe controlled drugs, narcotics, sedatives, or medical cannabis.
