Wild Flower Child, I understand you turned in documentation on letterhead, your not required to. Medical documentation only requires a statement from a doc saying you are under their care. And you will need ABC" time off or to attend appts (or were off) due to a illness. Then a docs name and contact number must be listed. Removing the letterhead is to protect privacy. I've used this method and had no problem.

Me too. When I was out for a few days due to a manic episode, I needed a note from my treating doctor, so my psychiatrist wrote a very short, general note. It was on hospital letterhead, but not department letterhead --there was no indication as to what kind of doctor he was. As Coco says, you don't need to reveal this. Also, by law, employers cannot ask you about your medical conditions.
