About Dr Diary
Dr Diary is designed for BMA members who are consultants or SAS (staff, associate specialist and specialty) doctors in the UK, on the latest versions of their contracts.
It’s a work diary that enables you to track activities that are part of your job plan, on the go. It’s for doctors who want to understand their working patterns and take control of their professional development.
Use the app to accurately reflect the reality of your work.
View the reports to see what your workload looks like in terms of sessions or programmed activities (PAs) and how this compares to your job plan.
Identify patterns to help plan future work and demonstrate areas for negotiation at your next appraisal or job plan review meeting.
Key features include:
• Add activities to your diary while offline
• Personalise activities to fit the nature of your work, including DCC (Direct Clinical Care), SPA (Supporting Professional Activities), Academic Work and more
• Choose to use either 15 or 30-minute time slots
• Track your work for more than one employer
• Copy a whole day or week of activities to another date
• View summary reports on the app
• See more detailed reports and share these with your employer at https://doctordiary.bma.org.uk

What's New in the Latest Version 7.2.0
Last updated on Feb 21, 2022
Old Versions
In this release we have improved the user feedback journey by making the opt-in function, that allows users to be contacted by BMA support if they wish, more prominent within the “Help” section. We have also improved the experience of adding On-call periods to the diary, and have also created more frequent alert messages in the “Weekly comparison” section of reports, which tells a user when they have exceeded their job plan PA count in a given week.

We have also separated out, on the back end, SAS doctor and Consultant role working hours and lengths of programmed activities, whilst ensuring the correct exception for Welsh consultants (this item underpins the previous).
In addition, we’ve added an in-app notification to notify SAS doctors in England and Wales about updates in line with 2021 contract, and that they will need to update their details if they move contract. We’ve also fixed issues with the app in dark mode on iOS.
