Editing your Practice Profile

Last updated 04 April 2021 23:30

The Practice Profile section of the HotDoc Dashboard allows you to customise the information that is displayed on your online booking page.

The Practice Profile page is split into three sections:

  • Practice Profile
  • Practice Location
  • Billing Information

Each section will allow you to enter specific information regarding your clinic that may be helpful for any patients who are looking to make a booking.

Adding basic information such as your phone number or website, alongside more additional information such as your social media links, opening hours or billing options, can assist with helping a patient learn more about the services you provide, or find a clinic that best suits their needs.

Opening Hours

The Practice Profile section allows you to add standard opening hours for your clinic as well as any temporary modifications you have to your standard opening hours (ie, Public Holidays).

  1. To add your standard opening hours, simply tick the boxes next to the days on which your clinic opens and add in the hours the clinic operates. Any day that remains unticked will be displayed as Closed:

    Screen_Shot_2020-12-16_at_3.32.14_pm.png

  3. You can also add in Exceptions for any time the clinic's hours change from the standard operating hours (ie, public holidays). To do this click the button to + Add exception and enter the date of the updated hours, as well as any optional label or a note to patients explaining the change. Hit Done and the exception will be added to your Practice Profile:

  5. After the date has passed that included the Exception, you will need to remove it from your Practice Profile again if you no longer wish to display it on your Bookings page. To remove an opening hour, select the remove icon next to the Exception to your standard opening hours:

Please Note: Anytime you make a change to your Opening Hours through the Practice Profile page in your Dashboard, remember to hit Save to publish the changes to your Bookings page

 

Practice Location

The Practice Location section allows you to enter your clinic's address, as well as choose an exact pin location on Google maps for Mobile Check-in accuracy.

  1. To add a Street Address, start typing your address into the box. You can then select from a list of registered addresses:

  2. You may also want to add some extra information regarding Directions and Parking in the box below:

    Screen_Shot_2020-01-03_at_4.28.18_pm.png


  3. Sometimes the registered address may not line up to the exact Map Location. To adjust accuracy, select the map and move it around to drop the pin at the clinic's precise location. This can be an especially helpful tool for clinics located within shopping malls or strips and will increase accuracy when your patients use our Mobile Check-in feature:
