Hey all I've been trying to look for how to achieve something like this:

I can't seem to find a way to do this. I'm trying to make a website for a hospital and they want to list their doctors and have the links go to their picture and information about them. What would be the easiest way to go about this? Thanks in advance!

No problem
Use CCK to create the content type (Name, address, picture, specialties)
Then use VIEWS to create your sortable list
good job. Have a beer.

standard.
What have you tried so far?
It looks like a simple table view to me.
Make a content type for the profiles (or use nodeprofile)
Use views.module. Make a view.
.dan.
Do i need to make a content
Do i need to make a content type for each category or just one?
=-=
categorization can be handled by the taxonomy.module
when a vocabulary and it's terms are added a dropdown will be provided by core that will allow users to choose what category the node should fall into.
confused
ok now I'm confused.. Could I get a simplified walk-through? Maybe a simple step by step? I'm not sure I understand the whole category and content type with views and all that. Thanks a lot for y'alls patience!
=-=
documentation for the taxonomy.module is located in documentation -> getting started -> core modules -> taxonomy
I can't read spanish and have no idea what "caetegories" you are referencing. however, taxonomy module is how content is categorized and ultimately organized on a per term or per multiple term basis.
taxonomy module is a big part of drupal and the forums provide many previously answered questions which may help and can be located with a search. Google may also help uncover the plethora of documentation and tutorials on this module..
Ok can someone PLEASE help
Ok can someone PLEASE help me. I've tried reading tutorials and documentation and I still can't figure it out. I'm not sure if my problem is more specific than the tutorials but here's what I'm wanting to do.
I'm making a websites for a hospital and they want a page where it lists all their doctors (Like the link in the OP). I need to categorize the doctors by specialty and alphabetize them as well. I also want the list to be plain like the in the link above. They can't have little bits of information under them like the tag or authoring info. Just the links in a list.

Here's a list of what it looks like on my website

Here's what the taxonomy section looks like
Also when I click on the parent of the child topics nothing shows up on that page???
Pleases help me.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Also when I enable the groups to but put in a menu then it'll show the parent and the children as submenus but like I said before it'll show all the authoring info and all that.
Someone please?
Someone please?

Bumping your topic after 2.5 hours can be frowned on. May want to read http://drupal.org/forum-posting
After your content type and your taxonomy is set up
create a list in the views.module to expose the fields and filter the information the way you see fit.
ensure to get the advanced help.module which provides a great deal of documentation for views. There are also videos and tutorials that can be found with google.
Solved my problem but..
Hey sorry about that..
I solved the problem thanks to this video:

I found out for the "Path" I was putting an existing page I was wanting the list to show up on instead of a new page for the links to show up on.
Now I have this:
http://drup.cmb.org.py/medicos
But now my question is how can I add a search field to this to search JUST in this page??
=-=
a search field? not sure you can however you can created exposed filters on views to help sort.
