Before you book
Know the dates you were unwell and whether your employer or school needs a particular form or wording.
Too sick for your shift in Nisku, at the airport, or at an office in Leduc? Book a secure video visit with a Canadian licensed doctor and skip the waiting room. The current calendar shows available times, including same-day options when open. If the doctor finds a note is warranted, you'll get a signed copy by email for your supervisor or HR.

TelePlus Care offers video assessments for work, school and return-to-work notes to people in Leduc, Nisku and Leduc County. A Canadian licensed doctor decides whether a note is medically appropriate and, if so, emails it, according to the timing shown during booking. Visits cost $35 with an active Alberta Health Card or $45 without.
Clinical content is reviewed for accuracy and scope. TelePlus Care appointments go ahead only when a doctor agrees it is the right call, after a real assessment, and the doctor will explain the next step if virtual care is not the right fit.

TelePlus Care’s lead physician reviews our clinical content and supports safe, patient-focused virtual care across Canada.
The whole process happens on your phone or laptop. Book a time, then answer a few questions about your symptoms, the day they started, and any shifts you've already missed. If HR at your Nisku or Leduc workplace gave you a form, or your supervisor wants specific wording, add that to the request. A Canadian licensed doctor then meets you on a secure video call, reviews your history and decides whether a note fits your situation. You need to be in Alberta during the call, and anywhere in Leduc County counts. When the doctor supports a note, it is signed and sent to your email, according to the timing shown during booking of the call during clinic hours.
Most requests come from an employer, and the trigger is usually written into company policy. In Leduc and Nisku that can mean a note after a set number of consecutive sick days, after a pattern of absences, or before you go back to a role involving forklifts, heavy lifting, food handling or driving. Industrial and logistics employers may also want a return date and any temporary limits in writing so they can plan modified work. Students need notes for missed exams or placements, and benefit plans need signed forms before short-term disability pay begins. For extended illness, Alberta's long-term illness and injury leave requires a medical certificate that states the estimated duration of your absence.
They can, when a video conversation gives the doctor enough information to reach a clinical decision. Colds, flu, stomach illness, migraines and minor strains are the kind of short-term problems that usually fit. The doctor still has to be comfortable with what they sign, so a note is never promised before the assessment, and nothing goes on the page that the doctor can't stand behind. Some concerns need a physical exam, imaging or bloodwork, and for those you'll be directed to in-person care. A note that follows a genuine assessment is far easier to rely on if an employer questions it.
Why spend part of your sick day getting to a waiting room when a doctor can check you over from home?
Either way, a doctor still has to check you over. Going online just saves you the trip and the waiting room when you do not need to be seen in person.
Getting a note should fit around your recovery, your job, and your classes. TelePlus Care lets you ask for a real medical note online, after a Canadian-licensed doctor has checked you over.
Whether your workplace calls it a sick slip, a medical note or a doctor's certificate, it's usually confirming the same thing: you were assessed and weren't fit to work or study. The doctor adapts the wording to the person receiving it. Common requests from Leduc-area patients include:
Nisku Business Park is home to more than 800 businesses in energy, food processing, logistics and manufacturing, and Edmonton International Airport sits in Leduc County too. Jobs like these often run on shifts and involve physical or safety-critical tasks, so a plain 'was off sick' note may not answer your supervisor's real question: what can you safely do now? Before your visit, write down the specific duties you perform, such as lifting, operating equipment, working at heights or handling food. The doctor can then document whether you're ready for full duties, need a short period of lighter work, or should stay off a little longer, based on what the assessment supports.
Video visits suit illnesses you'd normally ride out at home. They're the wrong choice for anything that could be an emergency. Phone 911 for chest pain, difficulty breathing, stroke warning signs, a serious injury at work, heavy bleeding or confusion. Leduc Community Hospital on 48 Street runs an emergency department around the clock, every day of the year. If you're unsure how urgent your symptoms are, call Health Link 811 for free advice from a nurse at any time of day. A doctor who sees red flags during your appointment will direct you to in-person care instead of writing a note.
For health problems that last beyond a short illness, a regular family doctor is the best fit. The Leduc Beaumont Devon Primary Care Network works with clinics in Leduc, Beaumont, Devon, Calmar and communities across Leduc County. You can also search Alberta Find a Provider, the provincial directory from Primary Care Alberta, to see which doctors and nurse practitioners are taking new patients. In the meantime, a virtual visit covers the urgent paperwork when an absence can't wait for a clinic opening.
