Need a doctor's note in Ontario? We're online 24/7.
According to the 2024 Employment Standards Act, Ontario may excuse short absences, but a doctor’s note is expected once you’re off for more than 3 days. Yet over 2.5 million Ontarians don’t have a family doctor, and walk-in clinic wait times can stretch over an hour. This leaves working parents, students, and part-time employees scrambling just to prove they were sick.
With Your Doctors Online, you can speak to a licensed Ontario doctor anytime and get a valid sick note for work or school in Ontario on the same day. We’re available around the clock, every day of the year, no matter where you are. Whether in the Greater Toronto Area, the City of Hamilton, or a small northern Ontario town, get your medical excuse within 5 minutes.
Since sick notes aren’t covered by OHIP, our private-pay option makes getting a legitimate doctor’s note for work or school stress-free. Register on our app, talk to a doctor, and instantly get your sick note delivered to your inbox.
Frequently asked questions
Can I get a doctor’s note online 24/7 with Your Doctors Online?
Yes, we’re available 24/7. A locally licensed physician reviews your case (and may do a brief audio/video call). If clinically appropriate, you’ll receive a signed PDF note with clinic contact details for verification, often in minutes.
How fast will I receive my note?
Often within minutes after your consult is completed. Timing depends on your case and whether a brief call is required.
What information is included on the note?
Physician name and license, clinic contact, date of assessment, recommended dates off or restrictions (if any), and signature on official letterhead.
Will my employer/school accept it?
Most do. Each organization sets its own policy. Your note includes verification details (signature + clinic contact) so they can confirm authenticity if needed. If your work or school has its own documentation that needs to be filled out, we can fill it out for you.
How will I receive my note?
As a secure PDF in your account (and optionally by email). You can download or print it for your employer/school.
Do you handle third-party forms?
Basic notes are covered. More complex forms may require additional time or a follow-up consult.
