DVM – Doctor Visit Manager is a physiotherapy clinic management app for Android and iOS, built by RelieveX Labs for physiotherapists, physiotherapy clinics, rehabilitation centres and home-visit practitioners across India. It brings the whole patient journey into one app: reception and registration, consultation and diagnosis, treatment plans, daily clinic and home visits, billing, PDF reports and patient access.
DVM was designed together with practising physiotherapists, so every screen follows how a physio clinic really runs, from the consultation fee taken at reception to the summary bill handed over after the last session. It replaces paper registers, diary notes and spreadsheets with one secure system that keeps charges, payments and treatment progress correct automatically.

Why physiotherapy clinics need dedicated management software
A physiotherapy clinic does not work like a general hospital. Patients come back for ten, twenty or forty sessions, some at the clinic and some at home. Each session has its own charge, treatment and progress note, payments arrive in parts, and the reception desk, the doctor and the therapists all need the same information at different moments.
Before DVM, most clinics kept this in paper registers, diaries and spreadsheets. Session counts and dues were added by hand, home visits lived in a separate notebook, bills were written again for every patient and progress notes were scattered. Mistakes in billing were common and it was hard to show a patient how much they had improved. DVM was built to solve exactly these problems in one app designed around physiotherapy work.
How DVM works, from reception to recovery
Register at reception. Staff register the patient, note who referred them and any advised X-ray, and collect the consultation fee with an instant bill if the clinic uses one.
Consult and diagnose. The doctor records complaints, history, vitals, examination and diagnosis, and attaches X-rays or reports. An assessment is created automatically.
Plan the treatment. The doctor sets the treatment protocol: therapies, exercises, number of sessions, visit days, clinic or home visits and the charge per session.
Run the sessions. For every visit, the therapist checks in and checks out, records the treatments given, pain score, measurements and a session photo.
Bill and collect. Charges and dues update after every session. Payments are recorded by method, and bills are generated as PDFs on demand.
Share progress. The patient and family see sessions, reports and bills in their own app, and the clinic can hand over a summary bill at the end of treatment.
Physiotherapy clinic management features in detail
Reception, queue and consultation fees
The reception screen is built for a busy front desk. Staff can find a returning patient by phone number or register a new one with email, photo, referral details and advised X-rays. The patient joins the day's queue, and the doctor sees who is waiting, who is in consultation and who is done. Clinics that charge a consultation fee can turn on fee collection at reception, which creates a separate bill immediately.
Consultation, diagnosis and assessments
Each consultation stores symptoms, medical history, vitals, examination findings, diagnosis and investigations such as X-ray or MRI reports. Files are kept private and opened through secure links. When the consultation is completed, DVM starts the treatment and creates a physiotherapy assessment from the same information, so nothing is typed twice.
Treatment protocols that staff can follow
The treatment protocol lists therapies, exercises, goals, precautions, home advice and instructions for staff. Assistants and therapists with permission see the protocol on their own phone, so every session follows the doctor's plan even when the doctor is not in the room.
Home visit physiotherapy app
Home-visit physiotherapists manage their day from the same app as the clinic. Each patient can be set to clinic or home visits with a schedule of daily, alternate-day, chosen weekdays or flexible visits. The day's list shows who is scheduled, the session number and the home address, and every home visit is logged with check-in and check-out times.
Physiotherapy billing software with PDF bills
Billing follows the sessions automatically. Every check-out adds the session charge, payments are recorded as cash, UPI, card or online, and the app always shows what is paid, due or held as advance. Doctors can change the charge for future sessions without touching past visits. Consultation bills, consultation reports and summary bills with date-wise transactions are generated as clean PDFs whenever they are needed.
Patient and family access
Patients get their own login to see today's sessions, their treatment history, consultation reports and bills. Parents or family members can follow the treatment of a child or an elderly relative. This builds trust and reduces phone calls to the clinic.
Staff roles and clinic team
The clinic owner adds staff with a role and switches each permission on or off: registering patients, collecting payments, viewing treatment protocols, managing visits and viewing billing. Staff act on behalf of the clinic, and every action stays inside that clinic's data.
