Written by the company

We're changing the way you see a doctor in Canada, starting with easily treatable issues like hair loss and ED. Essential offers medical consultations and Health Canada authorized treatments to help men overcome challenges with hair loss and erectile dysfunction. We know it’s not easy going to a doctor in Canada, especially if you need to speak about personal health issues that can result in awkward conversation. But with Essential, you’re able to shop prescription products and talk to a medical professional discreetly from the comfort of your own home. Every prescription is reviewed by a licensed Canadian doctor or nurse practitioner, who are available for online consults and follow-ups 7 days a week. All medications are shipped in discreet packaging directly to your home within a few days of approval. To treat hair loss, Essential offers prescription finasteride 1mg and 5mg pills, dutasteride pills, topical finasteride, and topical minoxidil. To treat erectile dysfunction, Essential offers prescription sildenafil pills (the same active ingredient found in Viagra), as well as tadalafil (active ingredient in Cialis). We’ve helped thousands of men across Canada get the treatment they need without the hassle of seeing a doctor in person. Thank you all for allowing us to change up the healthcare game in Canada.

Great company!

I’ve used Essential Clinic for the past couple years for online hair loss treatment and they are an amazing team! Always super fast response from customer service and a super smooth process all around. Highly recommend!

Quick, human and simple

They are efficient and of a great help. Response time is always fast, service is very humane and supportive, and I've never encountered issues receiving my medication.

Prompt service

Simple portal and quick service plus the fact that they saved me a lot of money with the finesteride 5mg and pill cutter over the last year and a bit.

Excellent service

Excellent service. Communication is reliable, and delivery times are consistently on schedule. They proactively monitor when you may be running low and send timely reminders. Any questions or concerns are addressed promptly and professionally.

What stands out most is that they genuinely seem to have their clients' best interests in mind, and it shows in the quality of their service.

I would also like to note that I am not receiving any benefit or compensation for leaving this review - and while they are unable to bill insurance providers directly, they provide receipts that can be submitted for reimbursement through your insurance plan.

This clinic is amazing

This clinic is amazing, their reply’s to my messages which often include questions and insight is always super quick and very informative and friendly. I’ve spoken to multiple staff and they always provide great knowledge of their products and after being with this clinic for over a year, I’m glad I’ve found this one!
