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.
Employers and, for Illness Benefit, the Department of Social Protection may ask for a medical certificate. Policies differ, so check what your employer or college requires before you book.

Frequently asked questions
How much does an online GP consultation in Donard 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 Donard?
Only if your doctor has a clinical reason, based on your consultation. They cannot backdate a certificate simply because it is requested.
Which pharmacy will my prescription go to?
The pharmacy you choose when you book. If your doctor issues a prescription it is sent electronically to that pharmacy, so you can collect it close to Donard.
