Online Medical Certificate in Dibrugarh
Assam's tea city, with an oil town, a historic medical college and the Brahmaputra at its door.
Dibrugarh is surrounded by tea gardens, with Oil India's base at Duliajan, Assam Medical College and Dibrugarh University. You can request an online medical certificate in Dibrugarh from your phone, and a registered doctor reviews your details.
If the doctor agrees a certificate is appropriate, it's sent to you digitally.
Some straightforward requests are reviewed in about 40 minutes, depending on your details and the doctor's availability.
Families at Assam Medical College
Assam Medical College, one of the oldest in the Northeast, treats patients from across Upper Assam and Arunachal Pradesh. Families often stay for days. If you've taken leave to look after a relative, a caretaker certificate is the right request. Upload any admission papers you have.
Tea Gardens
Tea gardens run their own hospitals for workers on the estates. Garden workers usually go through the garden hospital for sick leave. Office staff, factory supervisors and town workers can use this service for ordinary illness.
Oil at Duliajan
Oil India's operations at Duliajan and the oil fields around employ many people directly and through contractors. Permanent staff use the company's medical system. Contract workers should ask their supervisor what proof they accept.
Students
Dibrugarh University, Assam Medical College and the district's colleges each set their own rules for missed classes and exams. Check with your department before you apply.
Floods, Erosion and Fevers
The Brahmaputra floods and erodes the riverbanks around Dibrugarh most monsoons. Stomach infections, fevers and skin problems follow. Japanese encephalitis and malaria peak between June and September. High fever with confusion or fits is an emergency: go to a hospital or call 108.
A Caregiver's Request
A school teacher from Pasighat brings her father across the Bogibeel bridge to Assam Medical College for surgery. Her school needs a certificate for the week she'll be away. She applies for a caretaker certificate, uploads the admission papers and explains her role. The doctor reviews the papers and issues a caretaker certificate for the period they consider appropriate.

Older Parents and Tea Pensioners
Many retired tea garden staff and their spouses live in Dibrugarh town, while their children work in Guwahati, Bengaluru or abroad. If you've come home to care for a parent after a fall, surgery or a long illness, a caretaker certificate is meant for that.
Bogibeel and Long Journeys
The Bogibeel bridge has made trips between Dibrugarh and the north bank much quicker, but long road journeys in the heat and rain still wear people down. If you fall ill on a trip and need a note for your employer, you can apply online.
