Online Sick Note Toronto — Faster Than Any Walk-In Clinic
Toronto walk-in clinics have some of the longest wait times in Ontario — often 2-4 hours. MedLetter delivers physician-reviewed documentation in 2-4 hours without leaving your home. Same clinical standards, zero waiting room time.
How It Works
Step 1: Submit Your Secure Request - Complete a brief clinical intake form describing your symptoms, dates of absence, and documentation needs. Your information is encrypted and confidential.
Step 2: Physician Review - A CPSO-registered physician reviews your request. If clinically appropriate, your letter is prepared. If additional information is needed, you may be asked to complete a brief audio or video assessment.
Step 3: Receive Your Documentation - Your signed medical letter is delivered to your email as a secure PDF. Most letters are delivered within 6 hours.
