Ontario, Canada, October 2024 — Amid the growing demand for mental health services, Canadian-based innovative online healthcare platform FasTreat officially announces its launch, focusing on providing high-quality, convenient, and efficient remote treatment services for adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). As one of the first fully online mental health platforms in North America to be certified by the international medical certification organization LegitScript, FasTreat is at the forefront of revolutionizing ADHD care in Canada, tackling persistent challenges such as limited access and long wait times. Our innovative platform offers clear, upfront pricing: a comprehensive ADHD assessment starting from $199 CAD (prices vary by province), followed by ongoing personalized care at $99 per month. With same-day appointment availability, FasTreat ensures that individuals receive timely support and effective treatment, paving the way for a brighter future in ADHD management.
Industry Pain Points and Innovative Approach
According to recent data from the Canadian Mental Health Association, approximately 4.2% of adults across the country live with ADHD, yet more than 60% of patients remain undiagnosed or face delays in accessing care. This gap is driven by a combination of factors, including average wait times of 42 to 60 days in the public healthcare system, high out-of-pocket costs for private assessments (often reaching thousands of CAD) and ongoing misconceptions about adult ADHD.
Through extensive research and conversations with patients, the FasTreat team found that the greatest challenge for adults with ADHD isn't the condition itself, but the barriers to accessing timely, professional support. The team explained, “Many patients we spoke to indicated that they want help but are discouraged by the complex processes and long wait times when trying to connect with medical providers.”
Six Core Advantages Redefining ADHD Treatment Standards
FasTreat is guided by the service philosophy of ‘Fast, Affordable, and Personalized,' providing comprehensive treatment support to patients through six core features:
Rapid Response Mechanism: The platform commits to completing the first consultation within 24 hours at the earliest. Currently, data shows that 75% of first consultations can be completed within 3 days, far exceeding the average 42-day wait in traditional healthcare.
Smart Appointment System: Patients can book directly based on their province (FasTreat is available all across Canada, including Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, Quebec, and more) and preferred time slots, with the system's algorithm matching them with the most suitable provider. The entire booking process takes just a few minutes.
High Value for Cost: The initial ADHD assessment starts from $199 CAD, which includes:
- 10-minute medical history screening.
- 20-minute smart assessments (for Anxiety, Depression, and ADHD screening).
- 45-minute in-depth video consultation (with a free extension if more care is needed).
- A full diagnostic evaluation and a comprehensive report.
Following the assessment, ongoing care is available at $99 CAD per month. This includes a personalized treatment plan and continuous condition tracking at a rate below the market average-all with the flexibility to cancel at any time.
Freedom to Choose Providers: FasTreat offers patients the flexibility to switch providers at any time, free of charge, until they find the care that suits them best.
24/7 Professional Support: Through FasTreat's secure platform, patients can reach their providers 24/7 to address medication concerns or urgent care needs promptly.
Personalized Treatment Plans: Each provider is certified in ADHD care and builds individualized treatment plans, tailored to each patient—never relying on a one-size-fits-all approach.

The platform's built-in feedback system has collected numerous reviews from users:
"After trying out three different providers, I finally found a provider who truly understands me. What impressed me most was that the entire process involved no hidden fees; everything was completely transparent from start to finish," a patient shared anonymously.
Another user added, "I was on the waiting list at a public hospital for 14 months, during which my symptoms worsened. After switching to FasTreat, I received professional help the very next day. I finally feel in control of my focus, and my work efficiency has visibly improved."
