Kensington is one of PEI's fastest-growing communities, located at the crossroads of central Prince Edward Island. With a population of approximately 1,800 and a surrounding catchment area of 5,000+, the town has no walk-in clinic. Residents must drive 20 minutes to Summerside or 40 minutes to Charlottetown for a sick note. MedLetter eliminates this barrier with same-day online documentation reviewed by a CPSPEI-registered physician.
Kensington sits at the junction of Routes 2 and 20, making it a commercial hub for central PEI. The town has experienced significant growth — a new business park, expanding retail, and growing agricultural processing operations. Despite this growth, Kensington has no walk-in clinic. The nearest options are Prince County Hospital in Summerside (20 min) or clinics in Charlottetown (40 min). For workers at local businesses, potato farms, and the growing number of Kensington-area employers, MedLetter provides same-day sick note documentation without travel.
