Which doctor can issue a medical certificate?

A medical certificate can be issued by a licensed and registered medical practitioner authorized under the law. This includes general practitioners (GPs) for common illnesses, specialists for specific medical conditions, and doctors approved by specific authorities for specialized certificates.

For instance:

  • General Practitioners: For routine health assessments and sick leave.

  • Specialists: For condition-specific requirements, such as orthopedic surgeons for mobility issues or cardiologists for heart conditions.

  • RTO-Approved Doctors: For driving-related certificates like Form 1A.

  • DGCA-Approved Doctors: For aviation-related certifications for pilots.

  • Hospital-Affiliated Doctors: For institutional requirements like NEET counselling.


Doctors must include their registration number, signature, and official seal on the certificate to ensure its validity and compliance with regulations.
