What a first appointment actually looks like

A full one-hour video visit with an Alberta physician. They ask about what's been happening, how long it's been going on, and what you've already tried. Nothing is decided without you, and follow-up appointments are unlimited.

  • A full hour with your physician, not a 5-minute triage call
  • Plain-language explanation of what's driving your symptoms
  • A written care plan you leave the appointment with
  • Internal referral to our psychiatrists or counsellors if you need it
  • Unlimited follow-up appointments, you're never left alone with a plan
On medication

You will never be handed a prescription you didn't ask for.

Medication is one option among several, alongside therapy, CBT, sleep and lifestyle work, or simply monitoring for now. Your physician explains the trade-offs and you decide together. Plenty of our patients never start medication at all.

If you do choose it, you get unlimited follow-up appointments to adjust or stop, not a prescription and silence.

Eating disorders need medical eyes, not just willpower.

Your physician looks at the physical picture, heart, electrolytes, bone health, alongside the psychological one, and coordinates with psychiatry and counselling where it's needed.

Questions about eating disorder care

Book free appointment

Your first appointment is a conversation. Any physical monitoring is explained beforehand and done with your agreement, and your physician will be clear about why anything is medically necessary.

Yes. Binge eating disorder is the most common eating disorder and it is very treatable. You do not need to purge, restrict, or be underweight to deserve care.

Physician assessment and every follow-up appointment are billed to AHCIP, no cost to you, no credit card at booking, no cap on visits. Optional non-physician services such as counselling are quoted transparently before you commit.

Only your care team. Everything is encrypted in transit and at rest, stored on Canadian servers, and handled under PIPEDA and Alberta's Health Information Act. Nothing is shared with your employer or family without your explicit consent.

You've read this far. That's usually the sign.
