Yes. In the Contacts app on your Mac, select the old doctor’s contact, then choose Card > Duplicate Card.


Open the duplicate, change the doctor’s name and any other details that are different, then click Done.


That’s probably the easiest way to keep the office address, phone number, and other shared information without re-entering it.
