Why and how should I create my specialist profile on RxTro?

The new 'Manage Specialist' feature on RxTro aims to help specialists create their profiles on the platform for better visibility and outreach.

RxTro's new 'Manage specialist' feature or form is the first step towards creating your 'specialist profile' on RxTro.

The form is self-explanatory and will take you through a set of steps to create your profile on RxTro. Before we begin with the details, let's understand the significance of creating the specialist profile and how it can impact your future healthcare collaborations and GP appointments.

Why create your specialist profile?

We have all created our online profiles one time or another. From Facebook to LinkedIn, there are several social media apps that put up our profiles online for everyone to browse through. Despite their differences, the specialist profiles on RxTro serve as a means to increase your visibility and reach.

Simply put, when your profile with all the details is on the platform, it's accessible to all the GPs and practice managers of the primary care clinic and the general visitors to the platform. For instance, a simple Google search (or searching on RxTro specifically by the 4000+ primary care clinics or their admin staff) on the conditions treated will help them land on your page, with all the details about your availability and point of contact.

So, when a GP or the admin staff search for a specialist with a particular area of treatment, they can easily find you or your practice on the platform to refer their patients.
