Medical Certificate Needed

You visited a clinic last week with a bad flu and missed an assignment deadline. Your university now requires a medical certificate covering those dates, but you forgot to ask for one at the time, and the doctor who saw you is away. Speak to the clinic receptionist: explain the situation and ask how you can obtain a certificate quickly.

Good morning. I was a patient here last Tuesday with a nasty flu. Because I was unwell, I missed an assignment deadline, and my university is asking for a medical certificate that covers those days. Unfortunately I didn't think to request one during my appointment, and I understand the doctor I saw is away. Is there any way another doctor could issue a certificate based on my notes, or could it be arranged when my doctor returns? I'd be grateful for whatever is quickest, as the university deadline is Friday. Thank you.
