hmsmanager (Krishnadas HMS) is a WordPress plugin for managing doctors, patients, appointments & prescriptions. Free plan available; Pro from ₹2,999/year.
hmsmanager, branded on-site as Krishnadas HMS (Hospital Appointments & Clinic Manager), is a WordPress plugin built for small to mid-sized clinics and hospitals that want to run patient and appointment operations without adopting a separate, hosted practice-management platform. Installed directly on an existing WordPress site, it centralizes doctor management, patient records, appointment scheduling, and prescription creation behind a single admin dashboard, with role-based access separating what admins, doctors, and patients can see and do. The product is positioned for practices in India ("Built for India"), and its publisher also sells a handful of related WooCommerce extensions (order chat, GST invoicing, delivery-date, and cash-on-delivery-fee plugins), suggesting a small WordPress-plugin studio rather than a dedicated hospital-software vendor. hmsmanager ships as freemium software: a Free tier covers very small practices with hard caps on doctors, patients, and appointments, while a paid Pro tier removes those caps and adds reporting, notifications, and priority support. A live demo and documentation are published on the vendor's own site.
