DOCTOR PATIENT
PORTAL
ABSTRACT
In today’s world if someone wants to book a Doctor’s Appointment we need to call in clinic or
personally go to that place and book the appointment. This consumes precious time of the
patient. Also, if the doctor cancels his/her schedule, the patient does not come to know about it
unless he/she goes to the clinic. The objective of this project is to build a system that will ease
the process of booking appointment of the doctor. The patient will book the appointment through
his/her mobile phone. The doctor will come to know the number of patients he has to attend
whole day. The system will save patient’s as well as doctor’s time. It will save the receptionist’s
paper work. The system will prove to be useful for doctor as he can check his appointments
whenever and from wherever he wants from his mobile phone.
We here propose a doctor patient handling, managing system that helps doctors in their work and
also patients to book doctor appointments and view medical progress. The system allows doctors
to manage their booking slots online. Patients are allowed to book empty slots online and those
slots are reserved in their name. The system manages the appointment data for multiple doctors
for various date and times. Each time a user visits a doctor his/her medical entry is stored in the
database by doctor. Next time a user logs in he may view his/her entire medical history as and
when needed. At the same time a doctor may view patient’s medical history even bore the patient
visits him. This allows for an automated patient doctor handling system through an online
interface. Our system also consists of organ donor module. This module allows for organ
donation registration as well as organ search. The module is designed to help urgent organ
requirements through easy/instant searches.
EXISTING SYSTEM
The existing system consists of booking a doctor’s appointment through the website. The
website is very useful as it provides various features. The appointment confirmation is
given by a SMS. The main drawback of this system is that, it is a website and one require
a very good internet connection as loading of web pages may take a long time. Along
with this, there is another android app available on play store but it is a paid app, hence
everyone cannot afford to use it.
PROPOSED SYSTEM
The proposed system consists of two panels: Doctor and Patient. The users will first have
to download the application and install it in their mobile devices. Once installed, this
application will remain into the device permanently until the user deletes it or uninstalls
it. The patient will have to register into the application for the first time. On registering,
the patient will receive a username and password. The patient can use this username and
password for logging into the app each time he uses it. After logging in, the patient will
have to select a filtration type. The filtration is done on two bases: Area wise and
Specialty wise. After selecting the filtration type, the doctors list will be displayed. The
patient can select any particular doctor and view his profile. Also, the patient can view
the doctor’s schedule and look for an appointment according to his convenience. The
patient will then send a request for appointment. The doctor can either accept the
appointment or reject it. The database will get updated accordingly and the patient will
get a confirmation message. The add-on to this system is that the patient will receive a
notification 2 hour before the actual appointment. This will be very useful in case the
patient tends to forget the appointment.
