01

Complete a short online questionnaire

No appointment required. Complete a short medical questionnaire and upload any supporting evidence.

02

Doctor reviews your evidence

A GMC-registered doctor reviews your submission individually. No automated approvals.
✔ Full refund if the GP cannot issue.

03

Receive your certificate

Certificates arrive most same day, all by 9AM next morning, delivered as a signed PDF direct to your inbox.

Independent GP Assessment

MedicalCert connects patients with independent GMC-registered doctors for private medical consultations. Your submission is sent directly to an independent GP for individual review. Certificates and letters are not generated automatically — each request is evaluated using the doctor’s own professional medical judgement and accepted clinical standards.

1

Confidential Submission

You complete a secure online form outlining your medical history, symptoms, and the purpose of your request. This information is sent directly to an independent GMC-registered GP to form the basis of their clinical review.

2

Independent Clinical Evaluation

The independent GP reviews the information provided, considering current symptoms, functional impact, stability of any existing conditions, and whether documentation is medically justified at that time.

3

Issued Where the GP Determines it is Appropriate

If the GP determines the request is clinically appropriate, a signed medical certificate or letter is issued. Where the GP determines there is insufficient clinical basis, documentation will not be provided.

Important: All documentation reflects the doctor’s medical opinion at the time of review. Final acceptance is determined by the relevant organisation (such as an employer, airline, housing provider, insurer, or sporting authority), which may apply its own policies and requirements.

MedicalCert is a digital marketplace connecting patients with independent UK GMC-registered doctors for private medical consultations.

All clinical decisions are made independently by the reviewing GP.

Why Get a Medical Certificate Online?

NHS GP appointments for medical certificates and doctors letters are not always straightforward — many practices do not prioritise administrative letters, appointment slots are limited, and waiting times for a certificate can run to several weeks. For time-sensitive situations — a travel insurance claim, an employer deadline, or an urgent housing request — this is often too slow. MedicalCert provides a structured alternative: your submission is sent directly to an independent GMC-registered GP, with documentation issued the same day where the doctor determines it is clinically appropriate.

Same day, no waiting room

Submit your evidence any time. Most certificates are reviewed and issued the same day, or by 9AM the following morning.

🩺

Independent GP review

Your submission is sent directly to an independent GMC-registered GP for individual assessment. Documentation is issued only where the doctor determines it is clinically appropriate.

Accepted by organisations

Certificates include the doctor’s GMC registration number and a QR verification code — meeting the requirements of employers, insurers, airlines, and institutions.

🔒

Secure and confidential

Your medical information is handled in accordance with UK data protection law. GDPR compliant.
