Project Overview

Custom Clinic ERP for Multi-Speciality Dental Care

This ERP gives clinic staff one place to manage patient records, appointments, billing, doctor schedules and reporting across a growing multi-speciality dental practice. The clinic's website connects into the same system, so every online booking lands directly in the ERP.

Centralized Records

Patient history, appointments and billing live in one ERP, not scattered files.

Doctor-Wise Control

Roles, schedules and speciality-wise workload and revenue tracking.

Franchise-Ready

Built to onboard new clinic locations without rebuilding the system.

Key Deliverables

Clinic ERP for Records, Billing and Operations

The ERP consolidates patient records, appointment scheduling, doctor and staff coordination, billing and insurance tracking, and franchise-level reporting into one connected system replacing manual registers, phone bookings and disconnected spreadsheets used across locations.

01

Clinic ERP core — Centralized patient records, treatment history and appointment scheduling.

02

Doctor & staff management — Roles, schedules and speciality-wise workload tracking.

03

Billing & EMI tracking — Invoicing, insurance and EMI tracking for high-ticket treatments.

04

Reporting & franchise controls — Owner-level dashboards and a system ready to replicate across locations.

05

Website integration — The clinic's website (also built by SDLC Corp) feeds bookings straight into the ERP.

The Challenge

Clinic Operations Gaps That Limited Growth

Manual registers, phone bookings and disconnected spreadsheets created avoidable friction as patient volume and specialist teams expanded.

Manual Appointment Booking

Phone-led scheduling increased the risk of double-bookings, missed calls and no-shows.

Scattered Patient Records

Treatment history, prescriptions and billing details were spread across paper files and spreadsheets.

Limited Performance Visibility

Owners lacked doctor-wise and speciality-wise views of appointments, footfall and revenue.

Manual Billing and EMI Tracking

High-ticket treatment invoices, insurance records and instalment schedules required repeated manual work.

No Franchise-Ready System

The existing process could not be replicated cleanly when onboarding another clinic location.

Disconnected Booking Sources

Website, phone and walk-in enquiries did not flow into a single scheduling record.
