Terms of Service

Last Updated: May 6, 2026

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the Kanata Health website and services.

By accessing our website, submitting a consultation request, booking a consultation, or using any of our services, you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree with these Terms, please do not use the website or services.

These Terms should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how Kanata Health collects, uses, discloses, stores, and protects personal information.

1. About Kanata Health

Kanata Health provides physician-guided access to advanced diagnostic and preventive testing for Canadians.

Kanata Health is led by Dr. Ali Sanei-Moghaddam, a physician licensed in British Columbia and Washington State. Through Kanata Health, Dr. Sanei provides virtual consultations, evaluates whether advanced testing may be appropriate, coordinates access to U.S.-based providers or laboratories where applicable, and reviews results with patients.

Dr. Sanei is a registrant of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of British Columbia. Kanata Health’s services are subject to applicable professional and regulatory obligations under B.C. law.

Kanata Health is not a hospital, walk-in clinic, emergency service, or replacement for your primary care provider.

2. Not for Medical Emergencies

Kanata Health does not provide emergency medical services.

Do not use this website, a website form, email, or any Kanata Health communication channel for emergencies or urgent medical concerns.

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department immediately.

3. Informational Website Content

The content on this website is provided for general educational and informational purposes only.

Website content is not medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or a substitute for consultation with a qualified physician or other licensed healthcare professional.

You should not rely on website content alone to make medical decisions. Any decision about whether a test, consultation, treatment, or follow-up step is appropriate for you must be made in consultation with a qualified healthcare provider.

4. No Physician-Patient Relationship From Website Use

Using this website, reading website content, submitting a form, or contacting Kanata Health does not create a physician-patient relationship.

A physician-patient relationship is established only when a consultation is accepted and confirmed by Dr. Sanei or Kanata Health.

Kanata Health may decline, defer, or cancel a consultation request if the service is not appropriate, if the request is outside the scope of Kanata Health’s services, or for any other lawful reason.

5. Eligibility

Kanata Health’s services are intended for adults aged 19 or older.

By using the website or submitting a consultation request, you confirm that you are at least 19 years old.

If services are requested for a minor, a parent or legal guardian must be involved, and Kanata Health may require additional consent or documentation before proceeding.

6. Scope of Services

Kanata Health may provide or coordinate the following:

  • virtual consultation with Dr. Sanei;

  • review of your health goals, family history, risk factors, medication concerns, or screening interests;

  • discussion of whether advanced testing may be appropriate;

  • coordination with U.S.-based providers, laboratories, or testing companies where testing proceeds;

  • review and explanation of test results;

  • recommendations for appropriate next steps;

  • clinical summaries or documentation that may be shared with your regular healthcare provider, where appropriate.

All Kanata Health consultations are conducted virtually. Kanata Health does not provide in-person consultations, physical examinations, walk-in care, emergency care, or on-site clinical services through this website.

Kanata Health does not guarantee that any specific test will be appropriate, available, clinically useful, affordable, or accessible to you.

If a test is not appropriate for your situation, Dr. Sanei may advise against it.

7. U.S.-Based Testing Providers and Travel

Some testing pathways available through Kanata Health involve U.S.-based providers, laboratories, testing companies, facilities, or sample collection sites.

Depending on the test, you may be required to travel to the United States for sample collection, testing, or related steps.

You are responsible for:

  • ensuring you are legally able to enter the United States;

  • holding valid travel documents;

  • understanding travel requirements;

  • arranging transportation, accommodation, and related travel logistics;

  • complying with U.S. border, travel, health, and facility requirements;

  • paying any travel-related costs;

  • ensuring you are medically fit to travel.

Kanata Health may provide general information about the testing process, but it does not provide immigration, border, travel, tax, insurance, reimbursement, travel medicine, or legal advice.

Kanata Health does not assess or certify your fitness to travel.

Testing availability, scheduling, sample collection requirements, turnaround times, pricing, and logistics may vary by provider, test, location, and patient circumstances.

8. Third-Party Providers, Laboratories, and Testing Companies

Kanata Health may coordinate with independent U.S.-based providers, laboratories, testing companies, payment processors, scheduling platforms, technology vendors, or other third parties.

These third parties are separate organizations and may have their own terms, privacy policies, clinical processes, fees, cancellation rules, complaint processes, and legal obligations.

Kanata Health is not responsible for the independent acts, omissions, policies, systems, delays, pricing, availability, or errors of third-party providers, laboratories, platforms, or facilities, except where required by applicable law.

You may be required to accept separate terms, complete separate consent forms, or follow separate instructions before using a third-party service or proceeding with testing.

If you have a concern about a third-party testing provider, laboratory, platform, or facility, you may contact that organization directly. Their contact information, complaint process, and applicable terms or privacy policies may be available on their website or in materials they provide to you.

You may also contact Kanata Health if your concern relates to coordination of your care through Kanata Health.

9. Test Limitations

Advanced diagnostic, genetic, pharmacogenomic, biomarker, and cancer-screening tests have limitations.

Depending on the test, limitations may include:

  • false positives;

  • false negatives;

  • uncertain or inconclusive results;

  • findings that require additional testing;

  • findings that do not lead to a clear diagnosis;

  • findings that may cause anxiety or require follow-up;

  • results that must be interpreted in the context of your full health picture.

No test can guarantee that a condition will be detected, ruled out, prevented, or treated successfully.

Tests accessed through Kanata Health are intended to complement standard care, not replace it. You should continue to follow recommended screening guidelines and maintain your relationship with your regular healthcare providers.

10. Results and Follow-Up

If you proceed with testing, results are generally produced by the applicable laboratory or testing company.

Dr. Sanei may review results with you, explain what they may mean, and discuss appropriate next steps.

Kanata Health will make reasonable efforts to communicate test results in a timely manner. Timeframes depend on the applicable laboratory, testing provider, and test type, and may vary.

You are responsible for seeking appropriate follow-up care, including with your family physician, specialist, emergency department, or other healthcare provider where recommended or clinically necessary.

Kanata Health does not guarantee that a result will be actionable, that follow-up care will be available, or that another healthcare provider will agree with the interpretation or recommendations.

11. Fees, Payment, and Coverage

Kanata Health consultations are private-pay services.

The consultation fee is as stated at the time of booking and will be clearly communicated before a consultation is confirmed.

Advanced tests, U.S.-based provider fees, laboratory fees, sample collection fees, travel costs, and any related expenses are separate from the consultation fee unless explicitly stated otherwise.

Tests are generally not covered by Canadian provincial health plans. Some extended health plans, Health Spending Accounts, or private insurers may reimburse some costs, but coverage is not guaranteed.

You are responsible for confirming your own insurance, reimbursement, tax, or benefits eligibility.

Kanata Health will make reasonable efforts to explain known consultation fees and expected testing costs before testing proceeds. However, third-party pricing and costs may change.

12. Cancellation, Rescheduling, and Refunds

Kanata Health may establish cancellation, rescheduling, no-show, or refund policies for consultations.

The applicable policy will be provided at or before booking, where applicable.

Consultation fees paid in advance may be refunded or credited in accordance with the cancellation and rescheduling policy provided at booking.

Kanata Health will not charge a cancellation or no-show fee unless the applicable policy has been disclosed before booking or payment.

Kanata Health may reschedule or cancel a consultation due to physician availability, technical issues, incomplete information, safety concerns, or other operational reasons.

Third-party testing providers may have their own cancellation, rescheduling, refund, or payment policies. Kanata Health is not responsible for third-party refund decisions or charges, except where required by law.

13. User Responsibilities

You agree to provide accurate, complete, and up-to-date information when using the website, submitting forms, booking consultations, or communicating with Kanata Health.

You are responsible for:

  • providing accurate contact information;

  • answering questions honestly and completely during your consultation and disclosing information that may be relevant to your health goals, testing decisions, or safety;

  • updating Kanata Health if your information changes;

  • asking questions if you do not understand a recommendation, limitation, cost, or next step;

  • following instructions provided by Kanata Health or third-party testing providers;

  • attending scheduled appointments or providing reasonable notice if you need to cancel or reschedule.

Kanata Health is not responsible for consequences arising from incomplete, inaccurate, outdated, or misleading information you provide.
