All Better, Together.

KixCare was built by parents who are also pediatric health experts.

Our mission is to provide high-quality pediatric telehealth services and improve access to care for children and families across Canada. Together, we can help every Canadian child receive the care and support they deserve, wherever they are.

Meet our founders.

In 2021, KixCare was founded with a mission to provide all Canadian kids access to quality pediatric care. Our founding group knew this was important because they lived it as parents and doctors.
