MEETING WITH YOUR PHYSICIAN USING THE PEXIP MOBILE APP:
AN ILLUSTRATED GUIDE FOR PATIENTS
First, you will need to add the Pexip application to your mobile device.
If you use an Apple device like an iPad or iPhone, open the App Store.
If you use another brand of device, open Google Play.
From there, search for the Pexip app and download it to your device. The app is free.
Adding the Pexip application
On a phone, iPad or other mobile device, the Pexip application will look something like this in the App Store…
…or like this in Google Play.
Your physician will email you an internet link. It should look something like this:
https://my.telemerge.ca/meet/12345678
The number at the end of this link is specific to your physician. It is the number you will use to enter their
“virtual meeting room.”
Example only - your physician’s number will
be different.
Joining your appointment
For better sound quality and increased privacy, consider using a headset or
earphones with a built-in microphone.
Make sure the camera on your
device is as level as possible with your
face. If possible, use a stand for
your device.
Make sure you are sitting somewhere quiet and private.
Get ready for your appointment at least 15
minutes in advance.
When you open the Pexip mobile app, you will be asked if the app can access your camera and microphone. Tap “OK.”
You will first see a screen asking about meetings: You can ignore this and go straight to the next step. In some cases, “I want to join as a guest” may appear as an option. Tap on this option.
You will see some icons along the bottom of the screen. Tap on ‘Join room as guest’. Ignore this part,
go to the bottom of the screen
You can then enter your name and your physician’s room code, which is the number at the end of the link you were sent. For example:
https://my.telemerge.ca/meet/12345678
You will be prompted to select what type of call you would like to place. Tap on ‘Video call’.
