September's illness wave hits Ontario hard. Get your documentation without the clinic wait.
With over 2 million students returning to Ontario schools and universities each September, the back-to-school illness wave is predictable and intense. Walk-in clinics across the GTA, Ottawa, and Hamilton see 30-40% increases in patient volume.
MedLetter provides documentation for the entire family during back-to-school season:
Ontario universities have strict documentation requirements for academic accommodations. MedLetter provides letters that include the physician's CPSO registration number, specific recommended accommodations, duration of medical impact, and official clinic letterhead.
Ontario's ESA provides 3 unpaid sick days, but many employers require documentation for absences beyond 1 day. When your child brings home a September virus, get your sick note from home instead of waiting 3+ hours at a walk-in clinic. $49, same day.
Yes. MedLetter provides same-day sick notes from CPSO-registered physicians year-round, including during peak back-to-school periods when walk-in clinics are busiest.
MedLetter charges a flat $49 regardless of season. Walk-in clinics charge the same year-round ($20-$100) but wait times increase significantly during peak periods.
Yes. Walk-in clinic wait times in Ontario can double or triple during September, often exceeding 4-6 hours. Online services like MedLetter maintain same-day delivery regardless of demand.
It depends on your employer's policy. Many Ontario employers require a sick note for absences of 3+ days, or for absences adjacent to weekends/holidays. Check your workplace policy or employment contract.
