Is a sick note from MedLetter the same as one from my family doctor?
Yes. Both are issued by CPSBC-registered physicians and carry the same legal weight. Employers cannot distinguish or discriminate between them.
What about walk-in clinics?
Walk-in clinics are an option but involve 3-5 hour waits in most BC cities. MedLetter provides the same documentation without the wait.
Can I use MedLetter as my ongoing provider?
MedLetter provides episodic documentation services. For ongoing care, we recommend registering with the BC Health Connect Registry to find a family doctor.
