This page provides important information for clinic owners and managers regarding our public update feature and how you can manage it for your clinic.

Understanding Public Updates

FindOpenClinic allows members of the public to update the status of clinics, indicating whether family doctors are accepting or rejecting new patients. This feature is designed to keep our information as current as possible, benefiting both potential patients and clinics.

Benefits of Public Updates

• Real-time information: The status of your clinic can be updated quickly, reflecting current availability.
• Community engagement: It allows the community to contribute to and maintain an accurate database.
• Reduced administrative burden: Clinics don't need to constantly update their status on our platform.

Quality Control and Verification

While we strive for accuracy, please note that we do not have direct control over the quality of updates made by the public. We strongly encourage users to verify information with clinics before making updates on our site. However, we understand that this may not always happen.

Managing Public Updates for Your Clinic

As a clinic owner or manager, you have the option to temporarily disable or enable public updates for your clinic on our website. This feature gives you more control over how your clinic's information is updated.

How to Disable/Enable Public Updates

To request disabling or enabling public updates for your clinic, please scroll to the bottom of this page and click the button to make a request. Our team will verify your information and process your request within 2-3 business days.

Important Considerations

• Disabling public updates means that only you or our administrative team can update your clinic's status.
• We recommend enabling public updates to ensure the most up-to-date information is available, but we understand if you prefer to manage this internally.
• You can change this setting at any time on this page or by contacting our support team.
