Sick Notes

At AuraWell Health, we offer virtual assessments to provide sick notes when medically appropriate. Whether you need documentation for work, school, or other obligations, we ensure the process is easy, confidential, and based on a proper health evaluation.

Get Quick & Easy Online Sick Notes

If appropriate, your sick note can be securely emailed to you, saving time and giving you the time off you need from work or school.

We are committed to providing honest, evidence-based care. Sick notes are issued only after a proper medical assessment — we do not provide documentation without a legitimate health consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get a sick note without a consultation?

No. A full virtual consultation is required to assess your symptoms and determine whether a sick note is appropriate.

What information is included in a sick note?

Our sick notes typically include confirmation of your assessment, any necessary medical restrictions, and the recommended time off. Specific diagnoses are not disclosed unless you request it.

Is there an extra fee for a sick note?

Yes, there is a small administrative fee for sick notes. We will inform you of any fees upfront.

Can you issue sick notes for extended absences?

For longer absences or disability claims, a more detailed medical evaluation may be required. We can guide you through the appropriate steps during your consultation.

*Please note: We provide sick notes based on medical necessity and professional judgment.

Can a doctor refuse a sick note in Ontario?

A doctor/nurse practitioner can refuse a sick note in Ontario if they determine the patient’s condition does not warrant one. Aurawell Health exercises professional judgment based on the assessment of the patient’s health.

How quickly will I receive my sick note?

In most cases, your sick note will be provided the same day as your consultation.

Can you backdate sick notes?

Doctors may backdate sick notes in certain circumstances, but it’s at their discretion and depends on the specific situation. For example, if you were unable to seek medical attention immediately due to the severity of your illness, they must ensure the backdating is medically justifiable and ethically sound.
