How it works

Three steps, all from bed

Step 1

Tell us your symptoms

A quick, private online form — a few minutes, no appointment, no waiting room.

Step 2

A doctor reviews it

An AHPRA-registered doctor looks it over — typically within 15 minutes — and calls if they need more detail.

Step 3

Your certificate, if approved

Lands in your inbox and patient portal within the hour, covering both days. $0 if it isn't approved.

The fine print, upfront

Good to know before you start

It can start yesterday

Woke up sick yesterday and toughed it out? If your symptoms have carried over, the doctor can backdate your certificate to cover it. That's as far back as it goes.

Two days is the cap

Still crook after two days? That's worth a proper look. A telehealth consultation can cover longer absences, if the doctor agrees you need one.

Book a consultation

Work, school or uni only

That's everything a 2-day certificate can cover — we can't issue them for other purposes. You'll also need to be 18 or over to request one.

Your diagnosis stays private

The certificate shows the clinic's details, the doctor's name and AHPRA number, and your dates off — never what you saw them for.
