Need a Sick Note Today in BC?
If you need a sick note today in British Columbia, you're facing a healthcare system in crisis. Over 1 million BC residents don't have a family doctor, and walk-in clinics average 3-5 hour waits when they're even accepting patients. MedLetter provides within 6 hours sick notes from CPSBC-registered physicians entirely online.
Why Getting a Sick Note in BC Is So Hard
BC faces the worst healthcare access crisis in its history:
- 1 million+ BC residents lack a family doctor
- Walk-in clinics average 3-5 hour waits (many close early at capacity)
