Project Description

Scheduling health care appointments is often a manual or fragmented process for both patients and clinics. This project aims to simplify and modernize the experience by helping developers build a robust and user-friendly Doctor Appointment Booking System. The solution streamlines how patients search for doctors, check availability, and book consultations, replacing inefficient systems such as phone-based scheduling or unstructured messaging.

We are developing this full stack web application using React, Node.js, Express, and MongoDB, and we will provide two primary user interfaces:

1. Find a doctor and book an appointment

With this feature, we enable patients to:

  • Browse detailed doctor profiles with specialties, fees, experience, and reviews.

  • Select appointment dates through a custom calendar.

  • View real-time available time slots and book appointments, including a reason for the visit.

  • Receive booking confirmation and feedback after scheduling.

2. Appointment management

We also allow patients to:

  • Log in securely to manage their appointments.

  • View past and upcoming appointments.

  • Cancel bookings when needed.
