Two of the most practical upload workflows in Doximity Ask involve things that come across your desk on paper: lab panels and completed screener tools. Lab Panel Uploads
The key is clinical context. Without it, Doximity Ask returns a generic interpretation. With it, you get actionable guidance tied to your patient's specific conditions and what you are trying to decide. Copy this prompt: Lab panel with context: I'm uploading today's lab panel for a patient with [diagnosis]. Tell me: (1) which values are outside expected range for this patient's conditions, (2) whether any require immediate action, and (3) what follow-up labs or monitoring intervals I should order. |
Copy this prompt: Targeted lab follow-up: My patient has [diagnosis]. Their [lab name] is [value]. What follow-up workup and monitoring does this require per current guidelines, and at what threshold should I refer or escalate?[Paste lab results] |
Screener Uploads, Including Handwritten Forms
You can photograph a hand-completed PHQ-9 or GAD-7 filled out in your waiting room, upload it to Doximity Ask, and ask it to score the form, classify severity, and generate note-ready documentation. The same workflow applies to AUDIT-C, the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale, or any printed screener with clearly legible responses.
Copy this prompt: Handwritten screener, scored and documented: Attached is a photograph of a hand-completed GAD-7 filled out today. Please: (1) calculate the total score, (2) classify severity per GAD-7 scoring criteria, (3) identify the highest-rated symptom items, and (4) write a 2-sentence summary I can include in my note. |
WORKFLOW TIP Photograph. Upload. Prompt. From paper form to documented score without manually re-entering every item into your EMR. |
PDFs, Documents, and More
You can also upload PDFs, Word documents, and other files directly into Doximity Ask. This includes discharge summaries, prior authorization letters, research papers, referral notes, and employment agreements. Upload the file, tell Doximity Ask what you need from it, and add any relevant patient or clinical context. The same three-part prompt rule applies: what the file is, what you want done with it, and any context that helps.
TIP For multi-page documents, you do not need to upload the whole file. Upload the relevant pages or paste the relevant section directly into the conversation if it is text-heavy. Either approach works. |
