Medical Certificates

Fitch's Pharmacy offers medical certificate consultations with endorsed Nurse Practitioners via secure telehealth, available to patients across Australia. If you are unwell and need a medical certificate for work or study, our telehealth service provides a convenient way to consult with a qualified healthcare professional without leaving home. Your Nurse Practitioner will assess your condition, determine your fitness for work or study, and issue a medical certificate electronically. Certificates are typically provided within the consultation and can be emailed directly to you for immediate use.

How It Works

  1. Book Online — Schedule a medical certificate consultation through HotDoc. Same-day appointments are often available.
  2. Telehealth Assessment — Your Nurse Practitioner will assess your condition via video or phone consultation.
  3. Certificate Issued — If clinically appropriate, your medical certificate is issued electronically and emailed to you.

What to Expect

  • Consultations typically run for 10 to 15 minutes
  • Have your Medicare card and employer or institution details available
  • Certificates are issued based on clinical assessment — they cannot be issued without a consultation
  • Your NP may also provide advice or treatment for your presenting condition

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a medical certificate from a Nurse Practitioner valid for my employer?

Yes. Endorsed Nurse Practitioners are authorised to issue medical certificates in Australia. These certificates are recognised by employers and educational institutions in the same way as certificates from a GP.

Can I get a backdated medical certificate?

Medical certificates are issued based on the clinical assessment conducted during your consultation. Your Nurse Practitioner will discuss the appropriate dates based on your presentation and clinical findings.
