How can we help you today?

First, Send a quick request

Tell us what you’re worried about and which lab test you think you need by filling out a short online form. You can then speak with a doctor or nurse practitioner in minutes, or book an appointment with a specialist if your case is more complex.

Lab tests are ordered only when a Canadian‑licensed provider feels they’re medically appropriate for your symptoms and history. If you don’t have employer or private insurance coverage, a visit fee may apply because not all virtual‑care services are paid for by provincial health plans.

Ogaei isn’t designed for emergency lab testing or urgent imaging. If you need immediate results or have serious symptoms, please go to an emergency department or in‑person clinic instead.

Next, Talk to a doctor online

You’ll be matched with a Canadian‑licensed doctor or nurse practitioner who can order the lab tests you need for many common conditions. Your visit usually starts within minutes by secure text chat, and the provider may switch to an audio or video call if they need more details for your lab requisition.

If the doctor or nurse practitioner feels they can’t safely help you online, your consultation won’t begin and you won’t be charged. They’ll let you know if you should instead visit a family doctor, walk‑in clinic, or emergency department for in‑person care.

Get your lab requisition and results

Once the doctor has ordered your tests, you can easily view, download, and print your lab requisition from your Ogaei account. Take it to any eligible lab in your province, following local rules about which clinics accept external requisitions.

When your results are ready, we’ll notify you by email or in the app. Turnaround time can vary, but many tests are processed within a few days; if a follow‑up appointment is recommended, we’ll let you know and help you book it.

You can then share your results with your family doctor or a walk‑in clinic, or schedule another virtual visit on Ogaei to review the findings, adjust medications, or order any additional tests you might need.

Processing times vary by test and lab, but many standard blood tests return results within a few days, while more specialized panels can take up to two weeks.

In Ontario, the virtual consultation that leads to medically necessary lab requisitions is often covered by OHIP when seen through eligible programs, but some visits and certain private or non‑insured tests may involve out‑of‑pocket costs.
