Get an Online Doctor’s Note for Work and School

A doctor’s note or sick note is a document drawn up by a doctor justifying the absence of an employee or student for one or more days due to illness. Indeed, a sick note is essential for employers and frequently requested by human resources departments to justify employee absences. You usually have three business days to submit this note to your employer.

By consulting an online doctor, he will determine during the virtual consultation whether your clinical presentation justifies a medical certificate. Consultations are simplified: you can meet a real doctor, without having to leave your home!
