Paperwork, Letters & Certificates

​​

Can I get a medical certificate without an appointment?
No. Legally, a certificate requires a doctor’s consultation. If it’s urgent, please see your GP or use an online telehealth service.

​​

Can I request a letter, report, or form between appointments?
All paperwork should either be completed during your review, or will incur a fee that is equivalent to the appointment fee for the same time taken.

Dr Richardson does not write medicolegal reports including family court reports as her focus is on clinical care.
