All Practising Doctors Must be Registered:

Doctors:
Do We Have The Correct Contact Details For You?

Email is the quickest and easiest way for us to contact all doctors on the register. From this year, doctors will now receive the Annual Registration Certificate electronically to make the process more efficient. As no physical certificate will be issued it’s particularly important that personal contacts details (particularly email address) are up-to-date.

Charter of Expectations:
All doctors rightfully expect efficient and professional service in our handling of registration queries, and our Charter of Expectations (PDF, 600KB) formalises the Medical Council’s commitment to making the registration process as accessible and effective as possible.

Search for a Registered Doctor:
You can check here to verify that a doctor is registered to practise medicine in Ireland, and you can also check a doctor’s qualifications through this facility. By law all doctors have to register with the Medical Council in order to practise, and doctors can only practise independently as specialists if they have specialist registration.

You can search by last name, first name, or registration number. As doctors may be registered under a different name (e.g. a married name) or spelling (e.g. McCarthy, MacCarthy, Mac Cárthaigh) a record may sometimes not be found. However, a doctor whose details are not found by this search method may still be registered.

The best way to find a doctor’s record is to insert the doctor’s registration number in the box below. If you don’t have the registration number or if you would like assistance in checking a doctor’s registration contact us at registration@mcirl.ie.

Professional Indemnity Insurance:
Employers require registered doctors to hold professional indemnity insurance. All doctors must ensure they have adequate professional indemnity cover prior to engaging in the practice of medicine within the State. The Medical Council does not advise doctors on how/where to obtain professional indemnity insurance cover.
