Holiday Season Sick Notes Alberta
Clinics are closed. You're sick. Your employer still wants a note. We're available 24/7 — including Christmas Day.
When Clinics Close, We Don't
December and January are peak sick season — but most Alberta clinics reduce hours or close entirely during the holidays. Between Christmas Eve and New Year's Day, finding a walk-in clinic that's open is nearly impossible. MedLetter is available 24/7, 365 days a year.
