Sick Notes
Doctor's Sick Notes
Your workplace or college may request a fit note if you have taken sick leave or had some days off sick. These can be issued by our doctors. Common reasons include illness, stress or depression.
Fit notes are also sometimes called sick notes, doctor's notes, fitness for work forms or Med3 certificates. For other occasions they can also write you a custom doctor's letter.
Just as importantly, your doctor will be able to examine you and provide appropriate advice and medication to help you start feeling better as quickly as possible.
Our doctors may potentially be able to issue these from a telephone consultation, but we would advise that you make an in-clinic appointment if you require one of these forms.
With 8 clinics across London, getting a sick note with DocTap is even easier than searching for an online sick note.
How to get a sick note
- Book an appointment online and ask the doctor for a sick note during your consultation.
- Provided that they agree that you are not fit for work then they will give it to you during the appointment.
- There is no additional charge for a sick note or doctor's letter.
- With 8 clinics across London and same day appointments it is even easier than searching for an online sick note.

I have seen Doctor Kumar several times now. The most thorough GP I have ever encounter, always providing giving clear explanations and recommendations. This was also confirmed by specialists reading her notes. Couldn't recommend more.

I had a good experience with Dr Becker who was thorough in her examination during the consultation. She gave me time to explain my concerns and she answered all my questions. I found her to be professional and attentive. The online booking process is straightforward and there were many available options for same day appointments at various locations.

My partner and I have been to Doctap London Bridge on a number of occasions and each time the experience has been extremely positive. I cannot recommend this service enough. It’s fairly priced and very friendly knowledgeable doctors available nearly always on the same day. The also hold a stock of common medications so you can avoid the extra effort of taking a prescription to the pharmacy.

I have been seen by a Doctor, who was very professional and provided me with a very high patient care and plenty of advice was given to me on my symptoms and treatment plan was discussed. I did not have to wait, as soon as I came for my appointment, my Doctor was already waiting for me minute in a minute, very punctual and professional. When I called to book an appointment, the Receptionist was very helpful and provided me with plenty of information on how to book and the price range. When I came in , I received a warm welcome. Highly Recommended! *****

I recently had the privilege of consulting with Dr. Kumar, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. From the very beginning, she was considerate, caring, and incredibly compassionate. She took the time to listen to my concerns, explained everything in a way I could understand, and made me feel completely at ease. Her genuine dedication to her patients’ well-being is truly remarkable. If you’re looking for a doctor who goes above and beyond, Dr. Kumar is the one to see. Highly recommended!

I've been working with Doctap Since 2017, if not before. It is the way medicine should be - intelligent, direct discussions with a medical professional who can concentrate on The Big Picture, as well as specialist advice where needed. I will be going back. As often as needed.

Dr Dabhi was honestly amazing. Can’t fault him in any way, shape or form. He had a very calming manner which made me feel at ease. He was personable and empathetic, which I believe most doctors truly lack nowadays. He is a true asset to the team.

I recently required a medical appointment while overseas on holidays in London. DocTap was recommended to me and I cannot rate them highly enough. They have a fantastic service, simple booking process, and most importantly a lot of last minute availability. I saw 2 different doctors over 5 days and found both extremely competent and they were able to assist me. The surprise though is after the consultation, I received from the practice, presumably from the receptionist follow up information on my condition, plus the doctors clinical notes. A very well run professional service.

Doctors note for work
Your sick note will include the following information for your work:
- A summary of the medical condition that has given rise to the need for a sick note.
- Whether or not you are fit to work.
- Whether you may benefit from alterations to your working environment such as a phased return to work, alter hours, amended duties or workplace adaptations.
- The dates that the sick note covers.
- Whether or not you will need to be re-assessed at the end of this period.
Your workplace can verify the validity of your sick note directly with DocTap should they wish to.
Book an appointment nowBeing ill is bad enough, but having to jump through hoops just to get a sick note for work makes the whole experience even worse. Our doctors understand this and can quickly issue you with your sick note so that you can worry about getting better.
