London Ontario Walk-In Clinic Landscape
London's 420,000+ residents, combined with 40,000+ Western University and Fanshawe College students, create heavy demand on walk-in clinics. Wait times average 2-4 hours, with longer waits during cold/flu season and exam periods.
Wait Times by Area
Downtown/Richmond Row: 2-3 hours. Student-heavy area. North London: 3-4 hours. Residential sprawl with fewer clinics. South London/White Oaks: 2-4 hours. Growing area. Byron/Westmount: 2-3 hours. Moderate options.
Online Sick Notes for Students and Workers
Western University and Fanshawe students frequently need sick notes for missed exams and assignments. Online services are popular because they're faster than campus health services (which can have 1-2 day wait times) and more convenient than walk-in clinics.
