Doctors are key users in ClinicWP who can manage patients, create examinations, set their own availability, and view appointments. When you create a doctor, ClinicWP automatically generates a WordPress user account with secure login credentials, giving them access to a dedicated doctor dashboard.

Accessing Doctor Management

  • Log in to WordPress admin dashboard
  • Navigate to ClinicWPDoctors
  • Click the Add New button at the top of the page

Creating a New Doctor

  • Fill in Personal Information
  • Assign Clinic and Department
  • Choose at least one clinic where this doctor practices
  • Multiple clinics: Check all applicable clinics if the doctor works at multiple locations
  • Patients will see this doctor as available at selected clinics
  • Choose at least one department/specialty
  • Multiple departments: Check all applicable departments if the doctor practices in multiple specialties
  • Example: A doctor might belong to both “Internal Medicine” and “Cardiology”

Note: A doctor can belong to multiple clinics AND multiple departments. This flexibility supports:

  • Doctors who work at different locations on different days
  • Doctors who practice in multiple medical specialties
  • Multi-clinic practices with shared staff

After the doctor is created, the system will send a welcome email to the email address you provided for this doctor. The welcome email contains the login credentials of the doctor. The welcome email can be customized at ClinicWPSettingsEmail TemplatesNew Doctor Welcome Email
