How to add an appointment

Apart from the appointments booked by the patients through doctoranytime, you can also create appointments directly on your online medical agenda.

Adding an appointment is very easy. There are three ways to do it:

  1. Clicking on New appointment button
  2. Through the smart search bar for patients
  3. Clicking on a time slot

1. New appointment button

  • Click on the New appointment button located on your agenda toolbar


  • A window will appear in which you must enter the patient's information, the start and end time, and the practice.

  • Select the practice and the service or treatment.
  • Then indicate the appointment time.
    Here you can indicate the exact day and time or select one of the hours you configured for that specific practice.
  • In case it’s a follow-up process, you can specify the recurrence. {link to this article}
    Also, you can add a short description of the appointment as a note for your record.
  • Then, you have to enter the patient's details.
    • If you already have registered patients, the platform will show them as a suggestion.

  • If the patient is new, you will have to fill in the information.
  • In case any information is incorrect, you can modify it by clicking on Modify the patient's profile. Don't forget to click Save.
  • Finally, indicate if you want the patient to receive confirmation or reminder messages via WhatsApp/SMS. 
  • Click Save and your new appointment is set.

2. Smart search bar for patients


The second way to schedule an appointment is by typing the patient's name in the search bar.

  • Click on the plus icon next to the patient's name and follow the same steps that we explained previously.



3. Click on a time slot


The third option is the simplest.

  • From your agenda, simply click on the time you want to schedule the appointment.

  • The window will appear again, but this time the duration will already be prefilled.
  • Fill in the information and click Save.
