{
  "available": false
}

Important Notes

  • Updating a doctor’s availability to false does not automatically cancel existing appointments
  • Changes to license numbers must still maintain uniqueness across all doctors
  • The updated_at timestamp is automatically set to the current time when any field is modified
  • Partial updates are supported - only send the fields you want to change
