Shipping is available across all of Canada. OrthoMed does not provide shipping outside of Canada at this time. Our primary couriers are FedEx and Canada Post (other options available upon request).

Note: orders placed before 2:00 pm EST Monday to Friday are usually shipped same day. Orders placed after 2:00 pm EST are considered the following days orders. The day you place your order is Day 0 (so it does not count as a business day towards the shipping timeline as per couriers' rules). You should also note, that in many cases, we are able to deliver the product to you faster than the stated timelines depending on the product you order and your location. Update emails are sent to you for each change in order status:   

1. PROCESSING - order received
2. COMPLETE - The item has shipped and tracking information has been emailed to you.

Also note: Shipments to apartment buildings and PO Boxes are available, however, please provide an alternative address to expedite the shipping time. If we are unsure of your address, we will contact you by phone or email. If you are in a remote location, there may be a delay in shipping time due to the courier's ability to reach those areas. Shipping charges are not refundable for returns under our return policy.

We will guide you through the steps to complete your return as quickly and easily as possible.

We understand how hard it is to keep all packaging and even opening packages without damaging them, but we ask that you do your best to keep everything in good 'like new' condition. Please place your item in a suitable shipment box to ship the item(s) back with our pre-paid return label (we suggest re-using the box that we shipped the items to you). The authorized items must be dropped off at Canada Post on or before the final day of return timeframe to be eligible for refund. Please return all packaging and instructions with your return to receive a full refund. If the items are returned without the original packaging/instructions, the item packaging is damaged and/or the item(s) were not put within a secondary box/protective packaging for shipment, up to a 25% restocking fee may be deducted from your refund. Please note, shipping fees are not refunded for returns if we successfully delivered the product to you in the stated timeframe.

Important note regarding insurance reimbursement: To deter against insurance fraud, it is our policy that if we provide a customer with documentation for the purpose of seeking insurance reimbursement, and the customer subsequently requests a cancellation, refund, or return (in whole or in part), we reserve the right to request documentation (or other communication) from you and/or your insurer to verify the status of your reimbursement claim prior to processing your refund(s).

If we suspect that an individual is abusing our return and refund policies (including order cancellations) for any reason, a restocking fee of up to 25% may be deducted from the refund amount(s) in our sole discretion.

How to Exchange: if you have ordered the wrong size or product and require an exchange please email exchanges@orthomed.ca.

Please note we cover the return shipping fees when you request an exchange within the first 10 days of receiving your product. After 10 days we offer a flat rate return shipping charge of only $14.99 plus HST. Also note, we cover the return shipping fees for the first exchange on your order, if you have multiple exchanges on the same order, you will be responsible for the shipping fees after the first complimentary exchange.
