As a doctor working with athletes, I saw how they would spend weeks trying to book GP appointments, pay high fees, or risk missing deadlines because of paperwork delays. That’s why I started Fit Certify in 2023 — to make sports medical certification simple, and accessible to everyone, wherever they are.
Since our humble beginnings, we have built an international network of licensed sports medical doctors who understand the specific health standards required for endurance events across Europe and beyond. From L’Étape du Tour and the Tuscany Trail to UTMB and Gran Fondos, our mission is to help athletes compete safely and confidently.
Today, Fit Certify has helped more than 10,000 athletes from over 50 countries get race-ready.
What began as a simple solution for frustrated athletes has grown into a trusted global service built on integrity, efficiency, and athlete-first care. If you ever have a question or need help getting the right certificate for your event, our team will always do our very best to assist. You can reach us directly at hello@fitcertify.com — we’re here to make sure you get to the start line with confidence.

We’re a dedicated network of sports medical doctors who share one mission — to help athletes compete safely, confidently, and without stress.
Our clinicians bring together decades of experience in sports and exercise medicine and event medical support, having worked with endurance athletes across cycling, running, triathlons and more.
Based across the UK, USA, and Europe, our doctors follow Fit Certify’s unified clinical standards to ensure every certificate is accurate, professional, and accepted by race organisers worldwide.
Each doctor undergoes verification of medical licensing, professional background, and experience in sports medicine before joining our network. This ensures every certificate issued through Fit Certify reflects the same high level of clinical integrity, accuracy, and athlete-focused care — wherever you are in the world.
At Fit Certify, we make it effortless for you to get the official sports medical certificate you need for your sports event — 100% online and reviewed by expert doctors.
We help cyclists, runners, triathletes, and endurance athletes secure doctor-signed certificates recognised by race organisers across Europe and beyond. Whether you’re training for the Tuscany Trail, L’Étape du Tour, or an Ironman, our hassle-free process means you’ll receive your verified medical certificate in just hours.
Our platform connects you directly with a qualified sports medical doctor who reviews your health questionnaire, considers your medical history, and issues a certificate that meets the specific format, wording, and language required by your event.
From L’Étape du Tour and the Tuscany Trail to local triathlons and Gran Fondos, athletes around the world have trusted Fit Certify to handle their medical certification quickly, accurately, and stress-free.
“I needed a medical certificate to enter L’Etape. I approached my GP, who refused. In the end, someone recommended I try Fit Certify. Within a couple of hours the certificate was returned to me in exactly the format that the race organiser wanted.”
“I used Fit Certify for an event in France. They were just brilliant, so friendly and took the whole stress of the situation away. I would highly recommend.”
Unlike traditional clinics or GP appointments, Fit Certify is built around the athlete. We understand that when you’re training for a major event, every hour matters — and chasing paperwork shouldn’t stand between you and the start line.
Our approach combines medical integrity, digital efficiency, and real human care, ensuring every certificate is handled with the same attention and professionalism you’d expect from an in-person consultation.
