What is a certificate for good health?
A certificate for good health is an official document issued by a licensed medical practitioner after assessing and confirming that you do not carry any infectious disease or pose any public health risk. This is vital proof that a person does not have any major diseases and is in good physical condition. This document gets stamped by medical professionals who conduct health assessments during consult. A Certificate of Good Health is essential for various purposes, including visa applications, international travel, and work or study abroad. For visa applications, a few countries often require this documentation before they grant you entry or permit you to work or study within their borders. The content and the tests that are required are dependent on the country you will be visiting.

What our patients say
Great service, so easy to use. Sometimes you are just sick with a head cold or flu and need a day off but also not well enough to drive yourself to the doctor and sit and wait for hours, just to be told you have a virus and need bed rest. This is a stress free way of getting the rest you need to get well while providing your work place or school with the necessary documentation.
– Carrie Ann NatsiaQuick and easy doctor’s appointments. If you don’t want to wait for a doctor in a medical centre for long periods of time for something that you know just needs rest, I highly recommend this alternative.
– Winnie ShepardThis GP service is the greatest. Quick, easy, effective and cheap. No making appointments or queues, no waiting, no expensive up front fees, the documentation you need for your day when you want it. I wish the rest of life was like Hola!
