The FormlyMD Origin

By Doctors,
For Doctors.

Born in the heart of Toronto, FormlyMD was built at the bedside to solve the administrative burden that pulls us away from what matters most: our patients.

Our Mission

Reclaiming 19 hours a week
for patient care.

Across Canada, the average family physician now spends nearly 19 hours every week on administrative tasks - essentially two full workdays lost to paperwork instead of patients.

The burden of documentation requests is staggering. From Sick Note and Medical Leave Certificate to insurance and assessment forms, physicians face over 130 requests per year, each demanding valuable clinical time to process, chart, and file.

FormlyMD was founded to solve this specific crisis. By automating the 10-minute cycle of intake, drafting, and delivery into a 60-second workflow, we aren't just saving time - we're returning doctors to the work they were trained to do.
