Getting a sick cert online in Shinrone
Not everything can be certified remotely. If your doctor needs to examine you, or your illness needs urgent care, they will tell you and advise on the right next step.
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.

Frequently asked questions
How much does an online GP consultation in Shinrone 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 Shinrone?
Only if your doctor has a clinical reason, based on your consultation. They cannot backdate a certificate simply because it is requested.
