Question 1

need a doctors note?

Accepted Answer

Dr. exam, then note: A doctor can write a note after doing an in-person exam. Generally, doctors do not write notes such as work-excuse or school-excuse notes, or back-to-work or back-to-school notes, without an exam. That is because a doctor's note is his written, signed, professional opinion, on whether a patient can or cannot do a particular activity. An in-person exam gives confidence to the doctor's opinion.

Question 2

Work note: Yes  you can call the patient line to discuss the issue that will keep you from work. The doctor can then write the note and you would have access to the note through your medical record right away.

Question 6

how can go get myself tested? do i need a doctors note?

Accepted Answer

Yes: You will need to call your Dr's office or an urgent care site to get a referral for testing. They will ask you a series of questions to determine your risk level and will advise you on where you can go to be tested. The swab test will be conducted by placing a swab deep into your nasal passageway to the back of your nasopharynx and results take anywhere from 48 h to 5 days to return.

Question 7

can i be sacked for having family health emergency even if i got doctors note?

Accepted Answer

Sacked: Every company has different rules and all states have differing laws. You need to check both out however in my experience a doctors note should be accepted as proof of an emergency.

Question 8

what would i have to do to get a doctors note for work saying i  can't work around spiders?

Accepted Answer

May need to see: psychiatrist for this note if it's a bonafide phobia of yours. It would appear more credible, and verifiable. There's very few professions that you'd be exposed to spiders in reality, since they aren't often seen unless you are in the extermination business. So, realistically, it may be harder to prove it's merit if your job has no exposure to spiders. Most places are clear of these insects.

Question 9

i need a doctors note for work..im finally feeling better but my work told me i need a note.

Accepted Answer

Doctor's note: We cannot provide medical notes from the Health Tap Answer Questions feature.  Only a doctor who has seen you in person (i.e., has a doctor-patient relationship with you) can write a medical note.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Yes: Doctors enjoy reading thank-you notes, but might occasionally miss a few, if they are getting many a day. Thank-you notes remind us how much we are helping members, both in our communities and across the globe.
