How to change the display order of your Practitioners

Last updated 05 April 2022 06:57   ∙   ~ minute read

Once you have set your practitioners to be visible on your online booking page, you may want to adjust the order in which they are shown.

There are three display order options that you can choose from:

  • Alphabetical order
  • By how soon they are available
  • Custom sort order 

The booking page below shows an example of a 'custom sort order'. Dr Mary Cure is shown first, followed by Dr Andy Practitioner and then Respiratory Nadine Nurse:

    • Automatically Sort Practitioners By How Soon They Are Available: Selecting this option will display your practitioners on your online booking in order of next availability

Extra Notes On 'Custom' Order

If choosing a 'custom' order, you may find that this order can differ depending on whether the patient viewing your online booking page is logged into a HotDoc account or not.

  • If the patient is not logged into a HotDoc account, the custom order that you have set in the Display Priority section will determine the order                                            
  • If the patient is logged into a HotDoc account while viewing your online booking page, the doctors will be sorted as follows:

Before the patient chooses an Appointment Type
1. The patient's favourite practitioners will be sorted to the top
2. All other practitioners will be sorted by custom order as set in the Dashboard

After the patient chooses an Appointment Type
1. The patient's favourite practitioners will be sorted to the top
2. Practitioners that perform the appointment type selected and have times available for booking
3. Practitioners set as 'Call to Book'
4. Practitioners that do not perform the appointment type selected
5. Practitioners that cannot accept new/existing patients for the selected appointment type
6. Practitioners that do not have any available upcoming appointment times
