Dashboard sounds desktopish, so you have room.
Why a modal?
What do you expect a modal will bring to UX / data insight / information retrieval?
What use case requires that these "basic patient details" (which doesn't sound like there's much data involved) are to be presented in a blocking overlay that'll obfuscate parts of the screen?
Modals interrupt user flow, hide possibly relevant contents behind them and need to be closed to continue work on/with the main data/contents.
If this is a task that needs to be done often, each modal is a disruption that requires additional actions during user flow to make it disappear.
Make absolutely sure you understand how your users have to interact with the primary information and those patient details and what else will be relevant at each point.
If the page has several functions or sections where any such auxiliary information is continuously required maybe declare a dedicated area on one side of the screen to become a generic "Info panel" where such information can appear side by side with the main information, so the flow is not interrupted and the input focus may initially remain on the main content while that panel renders "the other stuff", presumably in read-only mode.
Should you decide that a modal is the ultimate UX solution for the task (and you should check what users really need) also consider this:
if the main page/content is input heavy, make sure that modal dialog can also be controlled by keyboard only, so users don't have to reach for the bloddy mouse only to move the cursor or to close the thing... yet again.
Enjoy.
Thanks for the response. I have already built and delivered the project.
