2.You will receive welcome mail with short details about you which you filled , confirm and click on link in email text to confirm the details . You will get message that your membership is noted and now you can log in the exclusive members' area. Website is dived in two areas - one without log in for all - patients , prospective surgeons who want to become member and for trade persons related to orthopedics and another with advantages exclusive area which is accessible by members only who has updated their details and activated their log in for Website.

There are mistakes in previous database and many members have changed their details and that is why they are not getting official communication from GOA . I have designed this module to keep our database live dynamic and updated every time when there is change , it will reflect automatically . I hope cooperation from each member to update their profile themselves.

It is of utmost importance to update your profile at GOA website every time you change your address or mobile number or email address or any details , to have latest updated dynamic database available to us to connect to you and pass on any information available with us for your advantage and for you to share and contribute information with you for advantage of all other fellow member and have evolution together ! It is the sole responsibility of each member to update his/her profile when there is change to remain connected with others and Gujarat Orthopedic Association . Sorry for compulsory four log in fields every time to log in , but this has been designed by me to remind you to update your profile every time you change , system will not allow you to log in with new email address or mobile number you have changed subsequently after activation. If you have any change in future please update your profile with old log in details of this website and then change your profile -email address and mobile number and then submit and that will automatically change your log in details to latest newly filled and submitted information and thus our database will be updated dynamically every time member changes details.

You can click on Build Your Own Customized Profile page and You will get a new tab -new page for maintenance of your own Page. Every time you make changes - click how it looks to see the change that happened . Enjoy to explore possibilities and take help of help files and few suggestions !

Dear Member This feature is new and is for members only . Purpose of this feature is to have each member a possibility to showcase his/her education, achievements, attachments, availability, specialty and other details to communicate with patients and visitors of Profile page. Design of template is made such that each member can explore possibilities to showcase his or her approach to patient, their staff, their availability at different clinics and their specialty and achievements with facility to get feedback from patients. I feel each member will use this facility to the best. My request to various office bearers - past, present and regional chapters to update their profile, update color photo( 140 W* 160 H ) and build their own website and make it active with deciding their web address (url - www. goa. org.in/member/xxxxxxx) for its publication against the name of office bearers.
