24/7 urgent care doctor's note for Clarington residents
As part of the Durham region, Clarington also faces a significant family doctor shortage. It can take weeks to get an appointment for urgent care. Walk-in clinics are open only during office hours; some may also be closed on weekends. It won’t help someone looking for an instant medical note, prescription refill or a routine issue at 9 PM on a Sunday. So, while it exists as an option, it doesn’t cover all use cases.
Our telehealth services allow Clarington residents to speak to a doctor online without commuting or waiting hours outside a doctor’s office. The doctor can issue a compliant note or guide the following steps, whether rest, medication, or lab work at a nearby facility in Bowmanville or Courtice.

FAQs about online doctor's note in Clarington
Is an online doctor’s note legal and accepted by employers in Clarington?

A note issued through Your Doctors Online comes from an Ontario-licensed physician, includes all information required by the Ontario Ministry of Labour, and is fully valid for workplaces and schools across Clarington. Employers cannot demand a specific clinic, only a legitimate medical confirmation. Our PDF include:

You can save or forward the file directly to HR without printing. The employer can directly contact us for verification purposes.
How fast can I talk to a doctor and receive my Clarington sick note?
Most users connect with a doctor in under five minutes, even on weekends and holidays. This speed eliminates hours in a waiting room and keeps you compliant with work or school attendance policies. Once the physician confirms your condition, the note will arrive in your email shortly.
What illnesses qualify for an online doctor’s note?
Our physicians provide notes for flu, stomach bugs, migraines, back pain, minor injuries, mental health days, prenatal visits, and many other conditions. However, we don’t issue notes for emergencies, injuries, accidents, or other complex medical conditions requiring an in-person exam.
Can I also get medication online when I request a sick note?
No. We don’t provide medications online. Please remember that it’s not safe to buy antibiotics, statins, steroids, or other controlled medications from unregulated online platforms. At Your Doctors Online, a licensed physician will electronically send the names of the medicines to registered pharmacies in Bowmanville, Newcastle, Courtice, Orono, or nearby rural areas in Clarington. If you need more detailed guidance on how sick notes work, visit Doctor’s Note Ontario or email us anytime.
