# Doctor-card booking keeps the chosen doctor

When an appointment modal receives a doctor from a catalog card, profile or explicit slot button, show a static doctor summary instead of DoctorPicker. The doctor prop is authoritative for native booking and fallback lead doctor_id. Do not request the all-doctors catalog. Calendar changes and unavailable schedules cannot reset or replace the doctor. The no-slots hint suggests another date, not another specialist.

General appointment entry points without a doctor retain the grouped/searchable DoctorPicker, including date filtering and switching doctors. Review forms are unchanged.

Files: web/src/components/LeadModal.jsx, DoctorPicker.jsx, DoctorPicker.css; web/scripts/test-booking-flow.mjs.

Verification: from web/, run node scripts/test-booking-flow.mjs and the other regression scripts; build client + SSR. Tests use fictional doctors, mocked API responses and no network submissions. Live verification opens booking only; do not create patient appointments or leads for a smoke test.

Deployment is a frontend-only image overlay on the current runtime, preserving the server binary, admin refresh fix, service-catalog quarantine, database and media. Back up the current image before switching; restore its tag and recreate only api if health checks fail. No 1C data, appointments, prices or schema are changed.
