About Pocketpills

We're a healthcare platform for humans, designed for real life.

Pocketpills is Canada's leading online pharmacy & medical care platform. Re-imagining healthcare to make it accessible, affordable and entirely human. Driven by our passion for innovation and customer-care, we've designed a suite of digital care experiences that empower our members to take control of their health wherever life takes them. From coast to coast, over 800,000 Canadians trust Pocketpills to deliver their medication & ensure a healthcare professional is always just an arms-reach away.

We founded Pocketpills as a solution to fix the broken system that made getting care harder than it needed to be. We don't believe long line ups at the doctor's office, confusing refill protocols & one-size-fits-all advice, actually fit with what Canadians need, so we've changed the game. Powered by pharmacists, engineers, doctors, clinicians & service experts, our platform redefines the world of wellness, from personalized treatment that actually feels personal, to truly effortless refills, including free, friendly delivery. Because we do believe Canadians deserve a better way to manage their most important asset, their health.

Discover the healthcare platform that feels Delightfully Human. With Pocketpills, complete care is right in your pocket.
