Getting a sick cert online in Ballyragget

If you are too unwell to work or study, you may need a medical certificate. You can book an online consultation from Ballyragget, explain your illness to an Irish-registered GP, and — where your doctor considers it clinically appropriate — receive a sick cert without having to sit in a waiting room while unwell.

A certificate is never automatic. Your doctor must be satisfied, from your consultation, that you are genuinely unfit for work or study, and the certificate covers the period the doctor judges reasonable. Backdating is only possible where there is a clinical reason for it.
