Your profile
Your profile manages your practitioner credentials, qualifications, and practice details.
What it does
The profile settings establish your professional identity within Diagnify. It stores your legal name, clinical occupation, medical specialty, area of practice, professional registration number, qualifications, and clinic contact information. These details format the headers and footers across all prescriptions, referrals, lab requests, and visit summaries. It also provides account management actions including signing out and account deletion.
