Medical Certificates in Brisbane
You can request a medical certificate online in Brisbane from an Australian-registered doctor, without travelling to a practice. Our doctors are registered in Australia and can assess anyone located in Queensland, including everywhere across Greater Brisbane. Tell Doccio what has happened, the dates involved and what your work or study requires, and the doctor decides whether a certificate is appropriate and what it should say.
Online consultations available during service hoursWhat's on the certificate
- Your name and the relevant dates
- A statement that you were medically unfit for work or study
- The doctor's name and AHPRA registration number
- The assessment date and actual issue date
- A Doccio verification reference
Medical certificates in Brisbane
Brisbane has grown faster than practice capacity in the outer south and west, and after-hours options are limited outside the inner city. An online request suits absences that do not need an examination.
Brisbane employers accept an ordinary medical certificate as evidence for sick or carer's leave, and each Doccio certificate carries a verification reference an HR team can check.
UQ, QUT, Griffith and TAFE Queensland accept a medical certificate in support of an extension or deferred assessment. Lodge it through the provider's own process rather than emailing a lecturer.
Requests are reviewed 8am–6pm Monday to Friday, Sydney time. Queensland does not observe daylight saving, so from October to April that is 7am–5pm in Brisbane, and the after-hours rate starts from 5pm your time.
Duration and pricing
A one-day request costs $19 and a two-day request costs $29. For three days or more, a doctor consultation costs $59 during business hours or $79 after hours. Paying for a longer request does not guarantee a longer certificate.
Business hours 8am–6pm Mon–FriWho this is for
- People located in Queensland who are unwell and need evidence of an absence
- Employees asked for documentation for a missed shift or day
- Students needing evidence for an extension or special consideration request
- Carers who needed time away to look after someone else
What a certificate can't do
- It is not a fitness-for-duty clearance for a safety-critical role
- It is not a substitute for an examination when one is needed
- It cannot be backdated beyond what the doctor can clinically justify
