Getting a sick cert online in Ballyroan

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.

If you are too unwell to work or study, you may need a medical certificate. You can book an online consultation from Ballyroan, 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.

Frequently asked questions

How much does an online GP consultation in Ballyroan cost?

A DrCall online consultation starts from €35. That covers your consultation, including a sick cert, repeat prescription or referral where clinically appropriate. Your card is only authorised when you book and is charged once a GP confirms your appointment.

Will my employer accept an online sick cert?

A certificate issued after a genuine consultation with an Irish-registered doctor is normally accepted, but employer policies vary. If you are unsure, check with your employer or HR before you book.

Can you backdate a sick cert for me in Ballyroan?

Only if your doctor has a clinical reason, based on your consultation. They cannot backdate a certificate simply because it is requested.

Can children see the online doctor?

DrCall is not intended for children under 3. For older children, a parent or guardian should make the booking and be with them during the consultation.

Do I have to travel to see the doctor?

No. Consultations take place by secure video or phone, so you can be at home in Ballyroan — or anywhere else in Ireland — and still see an Irish-registered GP.

What if I need a doctor in person in Ballyroan tonight?

DrCall is an online service, so we cannot send a doctor to your door. For urgent in-person care when surgeries are closed in Co. Laois, contact MIDOC Laois — it is an appointment-only service with its own fees. You can also find your nearest out-of-hours GP or emergency department on the HSE website. In an emergency call 112 or 999. If your concern suits a video or phone consultation, you can book DrCall any day.

How long does an online GP consultation take?

A typical consultation lasts around 15 minutes, though your doctor will take the time they need to help you properly.

Can I book a follow-up if I need one?

Yes. If your doctor wants to review you again they will say so, and you can simply book another appointment online.
