Sarah A.June 2026

I had an excellent experience with Provider Notes and Dr. Dean Fishman. The entire process was seamless, quick, and incredibly helpful. He made everything easy to understand, and I was able to get my handicap placard to help with my mobility issues. I truly appreciate the professionalism and efficiency throughout the process. I highly recommend their services to anyone who needs assistance!

D.S.June 2026

This was such an easy experience for me. I was embarrassed to admit I needed a permit to my family doctor. Dr Schapiro made me feel very easy talking about it and the process was quick. I would highly recommend using them if you are in need of a permit.

Phillip H.June 2026

Very receptive and professional. Even though the appointment was virtual, I felt listened to, supported, and well taken care of throughout the whole experience. Great overall visit.

Written reviews are published with the patient's permission, in their own words. Reviews reflect individual experiences and are not a guarantee of any particular outcome. Certification is always subject to the provider's clinical judgment.

Questions, answered

How can a doctor tell how far I can walk over video?+

They take a history and apply clinical judgment to it, which is how functional mobility is assessed in an office too. The doctor asks how far you get before resting, what devices you use and how much they help, whether you use oxygen, what your diagnosis is and how it affects an ordinary day. They also observe what video shows: how you move, any device in use, your breathing. Where the picture is unclear they may ask for records. The decision is the doctor's, not yours, which is why certification is not guaranteed.

How long does the whole thing take, start to finish?+

The eligibility check takes about two minutes. You pick from the next open times, often same day or next day, and the visit itself runs about five minutes. Your signed form is emailed within 24 hours of the visit if the doctor certifies you. After that, timing is up to your county tax collector, which varies by county and by whether you go in person or mail it.

Do I need medical records or a referral from my doctor?+

No referral, and no records required. The doctor evaluates how your condition affects your ability to walk safely, which is what Florida's form actually asks about. If you have records and want to share them, you can, and they may help for less visible conditions. Most patients do not need them.

Do I have to pay before I know if I qualify?+

No. The 2-minute eligibility check is free and does not ask for a credit card. You are only asked to book and pay if your condition falls within our scope of practice.

When is my card charged?+

Nothing is charged when you book. Your card is saved and charged $119 twenty-four hours before your appointment. Cancel or reschedule before then and you are not charged at all. After that the fee is non-refundable, except in the limited cases in our Refund Policy.

Is this legal in Florida?+

Florida law permits licensed physicians and chiropractors to evaluate patients by telehealth and to complete disabled parking permit certifications within their scope of practice. Both of our providers are Florida-licensed, and you can verify their licenses yourself.

Do I still need to go to the county tax collector?+

Yes. Florida law requires the placard to be issued by the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles through your county tax collector or tag agency. We complete the medical certification by video only; you take or mail the signed form to your county with your driver's license. Most accept it by mail.

What if I'm not comfortable with video calls?+

We email you a secure link and you tap it from your phone, tablet, or computer, with no app to download. If you have trouble, our team can walk you through it beforehand, just call (754) 233-0586. Florida law requires a live visit with the doctor, so the video visit is required.

Questions? Call (754) 233-0586, Mon-Fri 9 AM to 6 PM ET.

The $119 fee covers the doctor's medical evaluation, not approval of a permit. Certification is at the doctor's discretion and is not guaranteed. Disabled parking permits are issued by your county tax collector or tag agency, not by Provider Notes. This service does not replace your primary care provider.

What this service does not do

The entire service is one thing: a licensed Florida practitioner evaluates whether you meet the criteria printed on state form HSMV 83039 and, if you do, signs the practitioner section. Your county issues the placard.
