Is there a way to use WordPress as a customer management system. In other words, if I want to keep a list of doctors that I can have the web visitor search for by last name, or specialty...can this be accomplished in WordPress?

You might be able to accomplish this using the People Lists plugin.
If you aren't afraid to do a lot of development, you could play around with custom post types. Each doctor could be a custom post type.
In addition, we are able to create custom taxonomies in WordPress. In this case, you may create a custom taxonomy called Specialties.
I would only recommend this if you are familiar with plugin development and don't mind also creating a couple new template pages for your new custom post types.
This is probably a little more advanced than what you are looking for though.
Or this plugin:
