Trustworthy Medical Certificates From AHPRA-Registered Doctors

When it comes to medical certificates, trust matters. Unlike some other websites that may use pharmacists or nurses to issue certificates-often at a higher cost-every certificate from Medical Certificates Australia is signed by an AHPRA-registered specialist doctor. This ensures reliability, authenticity, and acceptance by employers, all while saving you money.

Our medical certificates meet the highest professional, ethical and legal guidelines. Our AHPRA registered doctors adhere to strict guidelines, guaranteeing the quality and reliability of the medical care they provide. When you need a medical certificate for your employer, educational institution or any other purpose, you can be confident it will be accepted without question.

What Our Clients Say

Very helpful & straight to the point
Super easy
Very helpful
I have used Medical Certificates Australia a few times now and it is much better than making an appointment to see my Doctor. I find when I am sick, the last thing i want to do is leave the house and go sit in a waiting room at my Doctors, she always runs late so some days I have sat there for over an hour, this is a much better option in my opinion, it costs less than a visit to my Doctor and i can stay nice and warm in my PJ’s and not leave the house.
Quick and efficient
Such an easy service to use. Write down what your issues are and submit n pay. Done. You’ll have your signed certificate within minutes. No more having to visit the drs surgery, leaving that for the more serious patients and not clogging them up.
The service was quick, easy, very thorough and extremely affordable. So much better than try to book an appointment with my GP and it costing a fortune for a medical certificate, along with the time of waiting to get in to see the GP. I also like that they follow up with a phone call if they think it's necessary. I will definitely be using them again.
so quick and easy. when you genuinely can't get in to see a dr face to face, this is a great service

Great Service for when your local GP is fully booked and are unable to get an appointment when required. It also alleviates congestion in an understaffed profession for non life threatening illnesses such as colds and flu.
Very quick service. Saves a lot of time, the whole process took approx 10 minutes. Thanks!
Easy to use and got my medical certificate in minutes. Where I live it could be days before I can get in to see a doctor who then won't backdate a medical certificate as I am now well again. This solves that problem and the certificate is sent straight to my email box. Great service and AHPRA certified doctors too which is very important.
