Doctor's note attesting to COVID-19 Recovery

We are receiving requests from patients asking for a doctor’s note attesting that they’ve had, and have recovered from COVID. This is typically related to travel, daycare, school, or work.

To obtain such notes, please schedule an appointment with your Magenta Health physician after reviewing the following caveats and context:

  • An appointment is required to allow for direct assessment and to review the circumstances with you

  • Providing a doctor’s note is not an OHIP covered service and will typically result in an invoice from your physician

  • Your physician cannot guarantee the sufficiency of their note for the intended purpose. This is particularly the case when it comes to travel. Your physician will not be able to advise on the requirements of different jurisdictions - this will need to be something that you assess and evaluate yourself.

  • Notes will be factual in nature such as “the patient reported to me a positive test on a self-administrated rapid antigen test”.
