Indeed when target use is general, dialectological diacritics are visibly not
an option, as
despite being in Unicode since v7.0 (2014), they are still unsupported by
mainstream.
Writing “der Arzt oder die Ärztin” or, depending on context, “einen Arzt oder
eine Ärztin”,
which I remember being

I had a go making a font this afternoon (that is, afternoon United Kingdom
time) and I am pleased with the result.
As well as with a capital A the two combining characters also work

Hi there!
"The Georgian community understood" — sorry, but here "the Georgian
community" means a small group of Georgian font designers who promote
upper-case for effectively caseless Georgian. Many Georgian scientists
working with script and language are not fans of "uppercase" font styles.
I would not expect for Ä+combining () above = Ä᪻ to look right except with
specialized fonts.

Even if it worked widely, I think it would be confusing.
I think you are best off writing Arzt/Ärztin.
