Private medical certificate
A certificate begins with an assessment.
Speak with a doctor in English about the private good health certificate you have been asked to provide. The doctor checks what can be certified and whether the requested document can be issued.
Medical decisions are made by the clinician after assessment. Not an emergency service.
Check the requirement before you book.
Organisations can ask for different kinds of medical evidence for work, study, residency or another purpose. A private good health certificate is a statement based on a doctor's assessment; the wording and format must fit what the receiving organisation actually accepts.
Before booking, ask the organisation for its exact requirement and bring any form or instructions it supplied. The doctor can then explain whether the requested assessment can be completed online, whether more information is needed and whether a certificate can be issued.
Bring the exact request or form.
The doctor must be able to support the statement.
Confirm format with the receiving organisation.
From requirement to document
Avoid booking the wrong type of certificate.
Check the wording
Ask the receiving organisation what it needs, in which language and whether it accepts a private digital certificate. Keep any official form or instructions to show the doctor.
Complete the assessment
The doctor reviews the purpose, asks relevant health questions and decides whether a remote assessment is sufficient. They may require more evidence or an in-person examination.
Receive a clear outcome
If the requested statement is clinically supportable and the format is available, the team explains delivery. If not, you will know what alternative evidence or assessment is needed.
Good to know
Not every form can be completed online
Some official or specialist certificates require a prescribed format, test or in-person examination. The receiving organisation decides whether it accepts a private certificate, so confirm this before booking.

Practical answers about this service.
Is a certificate guaranteed?
No. The doctor can issue a statement only when the assessment supports it and the requested format is appropriate.
Will my employer or authority accept it?
Acceptance depends on that organisation's rules. Ask for its exact requirements before booking.
What should I bring?
Bring the request or form, its required wording and any relevant health information or results.
