In Canada, a doctor's note for work or school starts online — fill in your information, a licensed Canadian physician reviews it, and if a note is appropriate, it is issued to your account for your employer or school.
A Canadian doctor's note starts with an online assessment, not a clinic visit. A licensed Canadian physician reviews it, and if a note is appropriate, it is issued to your account for you to submit to your employer or school.
Across Canada
Sick leave is not one national rule in Canada — it varies by province and territory and by employer policy. A note states your dates; check your employer's policy and your province's rules before you submit.
Provincial Regulators
Physicians are licensed province by province — the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario, for example, is Ontario only. A Canadian note is reviewed by a licensed physician, not by one national board.
For Your Employer
A work note covers missed shifts on specific dates. An Employment Insurance sickness claim is a separate Service Canada process with its own requirements — a work note alone is not an EI claim.
For Your Professor or School Office
A note for a missed class, lab, or assignment date in Canada, stating the dates you were unable to attend. Submit it through the method your professor or school office specifies.
For Your Employer or School
A note with a return date as assessed, for a return to work or school. Check any return conditions or forms your employer or school requires.
Online Assessment
This is an online service. There is no partnered clinic in your city to visit, and no walk-in visit is needed — complete the assessment online and the note is issued to your account if appropriate.
Search the city list below for your city — the list is partial, and the service is online, so your city does not need a local clinic. If your employer or school requires its own form or an in-person visit, check their policy before you submit.

Get a Doctor's Note for Your CityA sick note for a missed shift, a missed class, or a return date — assessed online by a licensed Canadian physician, and issued to your account for you to submit. No appointment, no waiting room, no clinic visit.
Start from who asked for the document. Each option below is written for a different recipient — an employer, a school, an insurer, an airline, or a landlord.
Documentation for a missed exam, a deferred deadline, or an accommodation request. Schools set their own forms and deadlines, so check your school's policy before you apply — the document is written for the recipient your school names.
A sick note or leave document for a missed shift or a return-to-work date, written in the format most HR teams ask for. If your employer has its own form, share it before the document is issued.
Documentation to submit with a visa extension or school-status request. Requirements vary by office and by case, so confirm exactly what the requesting office needs before you apply.
A confidential assessment when anxiety, depression, or burnout affects work or study, and documentation you can submit with an accommodation request. Whether an accommodation is granted is decided by your employer or school.
An evaluation for a sports exemption, a modified activity plan, or clearance to return to play, based on a clinician's assessment of what is safe for you.
A formal medical certificate for a legal or insurance file. Courts and insurers have their own format and evidence standards — confirm those standards before you apply, so the document is written to match them.
Documentation for a cancelled flight, a travel insurance claim, or a changed trip because you were unwell. Keep your booking details ready — insurers and airlines usually ask for dates and a reason, not just a note.
Documentation for a housing modification, a dietary need, or an accessibility request, written to explain the medical basis for the request. The final decision rests with the housing provider or institution.
When something unexpected happens and you need documentation quickly, start online and check current availability on the booking page. Urgency does not change the review step — a clinician still reviews the assessment before anything is issued.
