Cornwall is one of PEI's largest communities with over 7,000 residents, situated just west of Charlottetown. Like Stratford, Cornwall has no walk-in clinic — residents must drive to Charlottetown or Summerside for walk-in care. For workers at Cornwall's businesses, the Trans-Canada corridor, and those commuting to Charlottetown, MedLetter provides same-day sick notes without the clinic trip.
