FAQs
How long is the wait at a Kitchener walk-in for a sick note?
According to Medimap, Ontario walk-in clinics have an average wait time of 59 minutes. In Kitchener, waits often exceed 1–2 hours for simple documentation like a doctor’s note. Our online service delivers your note in 5 minutes.
Are digital doctors' notes accepted in Kitchener?
Yes. Ontario law doesn’t distinguish between in-person and telemedicine notes; most employers and schools in Ontario, including Kitchener, accept a digital note. We recommend confirming your institutional policies regarding medical leaves before requesting a doctor’s note from Your Doctors Online.
How much does a doctor's note cost?
At Your Doctors Online, you can get a doctor’s note at affordable rates, regardless of your insurance status. Unlike other telehealth platforms, we don’t have any hidden charges, and our fee remains the same for evening, weekend, or holiday care. Save with our family sharing plan.
Do Kitchener employers still need a doctor's note for the first three days off?
No. Since October 28, 2024, employers in Ontario cannot require a doctor’s note for the first three unpaid sick days. However, some still request notes for longer absences. You can provide any other reasonable evidence, such as a self-attestation or pharmacy receipt, to cover short-term absences during this time.
