Whether you are in Newcastle West or elsewhere in Co. Limerick — Limerick City included — you can book the same online GP service.

Getting a sick cert online in Newcastle West

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 Newcastle West, 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 Newcastle West 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 Newcastle West?

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.
