Configure clinical fields

When to use this: you want consultations to show your note structure — extra sections for diet, private notes, or custom complaint fields — instead of the generic SOAP layout alone.

Who can do this: Doctors with a linked clinic doctor profile. Each doctor’s template is personal. Receptionists and tenant owners without a doctor profile cannot edit this page.

Where to go

Clinical → Clinic CMS → Clinical Fields (/clinic/clinical-fields)

You can also open it from a consultation via Configure fields in the workspace header.

Clinical fields setup — consultation note template with sections and favourite panels
Clinical Fields — your personal consultation note template and quick-pick panels.

Consultation note template

  1. Under Consultation note template, use Add section to create a collapsible block (e.g. Examination, Plan).
  2. Inside each section, Add field and pick a type (text, textarea, number, date, etc.).
  3. Reorder with the arrow controls; rename sections inline.
  4. Toggle Dictate on fields where you use speech-to-text during consults.
  5. Click Save fields.

Use Reset to defaults to restore the standard template if you need a clean slate.

What appears in consultations

Saved sections map to collapsible blocks in the consultation workspace Clinical notes area. Standard SOAP fields remain available alongside your custom template.
