Abstract


The Doctor Booking Appointment System using Python is a software solution designed to streamline the process of scheduling appointments with healthcare professionals. This system aims to provide patients with a convenient and efficient way to book appointments with doctors while also offering doctors a comprehensive platform to manage their schedules.

The system allows patients to search for doctors based on various criteria such as specialization, location, availability, and ratings. Once a suitable doctor is found, patients can book appointments online at their convenience. The system also incorporates features like appointment reminders, patient profiles, and feedback mechanisms to enhance the overall user experience.

For doctors, the system provides a dashboard where they can view and manage their appointments, update their availability, and access patient records. It also offers features for managing patient information securely and efficiently.

Implemented using Python programming language, the system utilizes various libraries and frameworks such as Flask for web development, SQLAlchemy for database management, and Bootstrap for frontend design. The system is designed to be scalable, customizable, and user-friendly, catering to the needs of both patients and healthcare professionals.

Overall, the Doctor Booking Appointment System using Python aims to improve accessibility to healthcare services, streamline appointment scheduling processes, and enhance the overall efficiency of healthcare delivery.
