We build websites for Canadian family physicians, dental clinics, walk-ins, dermatologists, physios, and specialists that handle real patient workflows — appointment booking, intake forms, recall reminders, and secure document upload — while staying compliant with PHIPA in Ontario, PIPA in BC/AB, and PIPEDA nationally. Every patient-facing form is AODA-accessible and built to survive a College audit.
Markham is the GTA's technology capital — Canada's Silicon Valley North — home to IBM, AMD, Honeywell, Huawei Canada, and over 1,500 tech firms across the Markham Centre and 404 corridor. The city also hosts a fast-growing Indian-Canadian population concentrated in Unionville, Cornell, and Wismer, attracted by top-rated schools and proximity to high-paying tech roles in Richmond Hill and downtown Toronto.
Canadian healthcare websites operate under stricter rules than US ones, and the biggest mistake we see imported US templates make is putting them on a US server — that single decision can put a clinic in violation of PHIPA (Ontario) or PIPA (BC/AB), both of which require personal health information to stay on Canadian soil unless specific notice and consent steps are taken. We default-host every clinic on ca-central-1 (Montreal) or ca-west-1 (Calgary) AWS regions, or Vercel's Canadian edge nodes. Compliance layers: PIPEDA federally, PHIPA in Ontario (with mandatory breach notification within 72 hours and an information practices public statement), PIPA in Alberta and BC, and the Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector in Quebec — which after Bill 25 is now arguably the strictest in North America. AODA in Ontario requires WCAG 2.1 Level AA for any clinic with 50+ employees and is best practice for everyone smaller given the College complaint landscape. Billing reality: OHIP/MSP/AHCIP covered visits cannot legally be advertised with prices, but uninsured services (sick notes, work physicals, cosmetic injectables, dental hygiene above coverage cap, Invisalign, IV therapy, B12, weight-loss programs) can and should be priced transparently — that's often where 30–50% of practice revenue sits. EMR integration is where most agencies fail; we have live integrations with OSCAR, Jane App (most physio/chiro/RMT in Canada), Dentrix, ClinicMaster, Telus PS Suite, Accuro QHR, and Dentally. SEO competition for "dentist near me" or "walk-in clinic [city]" is intense in dense urban areas — schema markup, real provider bios with credentials, accumulated Google reviews, and condition-specific landing pages are how you actually rank. Real Canadian alternatives we replace or augment: practice-management bolt-ons from Jane App and Cliniko have basic websites included but they look generic and rank poorly; bespoke is worth it once you cross ~$500k annual revenue.
Patients book by service, doctor, or first available — with separate flows for OHIP/MSP/AHCIP-covered visits versus uninsured services (cosmetic, sick notes, work physicals) so the front desk knows the billing path before the patient walks in. Calendar syncs with Jane App, OSCAR, ClinicMaster, Dentrix, or your EMR via API or iCal.
Digital intake replaces the clipboard — encrypted in transit and at rest, hosted on Canadian Vercel / AWS ca-central-1 regions to keep PHI on Canadian soil, with audit logs of who accessed what and when. Auto-flags allergies and current meds for the doctor. Saves 7–10 minutes of front-desk work per new patient and survives a Privacy Commissioner audit.
Patients upload imaging, blood-work PDFs, referral letters, or insurance cards directly into their file before the visit — encrypted, virus-scanned, routed to the right chart in your EMR. Patient portal lets them download visit summaries, prescriptions, and tax receipts. Two-factor authentication enforced on the patient side.
Every page tested for screen-reader compatibility, keyboard navigation, colour contrast, and motion-reduction — required by AODA in Ontario and best-practice nationally. Includes accessible booking flow (often the worst-offender on competitor sites), accessible PDFs, and a public accessibility statement page. Protects you from the wave of AODA complaints filed since 2025.
Automated SMS and email recall for annual physicals, dental cleanings, pap tests, vaccinations, and follow-ups — pulled from your EMR or our built-in CRM. Two-way SMS so patients can reply "confirm" or "reschedule" without calling. Bilingual French/English templates for Quebec. Typically lifts recall-show rates from ~55% to ~80% in the first quarter.
Schema-rich pages for each service you offer — Invisalign, IUD insertion, B12 injections, cosmetic Botox, sports massage — so you rank for "[service] near me" searches that drive 60%+ of new patient acquisition. Bio pages for each provider with credentials and CPSO/CDSO/CPSBC numbers properly marked up for E-E-A-T.
A PHIPA/PIPEDA-compliant clinic website for a Markham practice typically runs CAD 2,500–8,000 depending on EMR integration depth, number of providers, and whether you need a full patient portal. Local Markham healthcare agencies typically quote CAD 12,000–25,000 plus monthly fees — we deliver the same compliance, AODA accessibility, and EMR integration for less, owned outright.

Compliant in practice — Canadian-region hosting (ca-central-1 / ca-west-1 / Vercel CA edge), TLS 1.3 in transit, AES-256 at rest, audit logs on all PHI access, signed Business Associate equivalent agreements, and a public privacy practices statement that meets PHIPA s. 16 requirements. We provide a compliance pack at handover that your privacy officer can file. We have built sites that have survived Ontario IPC inquiries.
Yes — Jane App and OSCAR are our most common, with full bidirectional sync of appointments, providers, and (where permitted) intake form data into the patient chart. Dentrix and ClinicMaster integrations are read-only for booking but we can do deeper sync if your version supports the right API. Telus PS Suite requires their partner program — we handle the paperwork.
Provincial-plan-covered services (anything billed to OHIP/MSP/AHCIP/RAMQ) cannot be advertised with patient-facing prices because the patient pays nothing. Uninsured services (cosmetic, work physicals, sick notes, dental cleanings above insurance cap, etc.) can and should be priced transparently — College guidelines (CPSO, RCDSO, CDSBC) explicitly permit it and patients overwhelmingly prefer it.
Yes — we test every clinic site against WCAG 2.1 Level AA before launch using axe-core automated scans plus manual screen-reader testing (NVDA + VoiceOver). Booking flow, intake forms, and provider bios all keyboard-navigable. We deliver an accessibility statement page and a pre-filled AODA compliance report that your practice manager can keep on file.
Quebec deployments default to French-first with English toggle, all intake forms and email/SMS templates translated, and Law 25 privacy notice + consent flows built in (including the new right to data portability). We hold data in Montreal (ca-central-1) which satisfies the residency expectations of the CAI.
