Phone number(s) may be entered in any format (up to a maximum of 35 characters per field) and will be displayed exactly as entered.
You may enter up to two email addresses for the patient, which must be in a valid email address format. Email addresses will be displayed exactly as entered.
You may add any number of nicknames, separated by commas (no character limit). Nicknames are used to look up the patient's records in the patient search bar at the top right-hand corner of each page. Do not re-enter the patient's last name along with the nickname(s).

Any text that is entered in the Notice field will be highlighted at the top of the "Need to Know" box on the patient's dashboard as well as on any scheduled appointments.
