Doctor’s Notes
The Doctor’s Notes service provides confidential, remote consultations for obtaining medical notes, certificates, or documentation that may be required for work, school, travel, or other non-emergency purposes. Licensed healthcare professionals from Tibbi Telemed’s partner clinics will assess your situation, review your medical history, and determine if issuing a doctor’s note is appropriate and medically justified.
This service covers routine documentation such as sick notes for employers or schools, fitness-to-work certificates, back-to-work clearances, and travel-related medical letters. Telemedicine makes it convenient to request and receive appropriate medical documentation without unnecessary in-person visits.
However, it’s important to note that some situations may require an in-person examination, diagnostic tests, or further assessment. The healthcare professional will advise you if additional steps are needed.
