Python Doctor Appointment Booking System
1) Background/ Problem Statement
If anybody is ill and wants to visit a doctor for a check-up, he or she

needs to visit the hospital and wait until the doctor is available. The
patient also waits in a queue while getting an appointment. If the
doctor cancels the appointment for some emergency reasons then the
patient is not able to know about the cancellation of the appointment
unless or until he or she visits the hospital. This becomes tedious for all
the involved individuals.
Our Python-Based Doctor Appointment Booking System is designed to
overcome the issue of managing and booking appointments. The
system provides patients or any user with an easy way of booking a
doctor’s appointment online. It also offers an effective solution where
users can view various booking slots available and select the preferred
date and time.
In this project, the front end involves Html, CSS and JavaScript and the
back end involves Python. The database: used is MySQL Database and
Django is used for the framework.
2) Working of the Project

This python-based project consists of three modules, including Admin,
Doctor and Patient.
The admin can log in using their credentials. They have the access to
add, update, delete and view doctors. By using patient IDs and names,
they can also see patient details and past treatments. The admin can
view the appointment details by filtering the dates. They can also check
the feedback given by the patients.
The doctor can log in using their credentials. They can manage their
profile and change the password if they want. They can view any
appointment details by filtering the dates. If they want to look for any
particular patient, they can search for the patient’s name or ID. They
can view all the details about the patients and also about their past
treatment. They can also add treatments for their patients.
To log into the system, the patient would need to register first. After
logging in, the patient can manage their profile and change the
password. They can book an appointment with a doctor by choosing the
doctor, date and slots. They can view all the appointments in the
booking history. They can even cancel bookings any time they want.
They can search for doctors by their name, type or locality. They can
view the doctor’s details. They can also give feedback to the admin.
They can view the treatment details added by the doctors.
3) Advantages
The system is easy to maintain.
It is user-friendly.
It helps to book doctor’s appointments easily and efficiently.
Patients can book appointments from the comfort of their homes.
It can help to reduce patient absenteeism.

5) Project Life Cycle

The waterfall model is a classical model used in the system
development life cycle to create a system with a linear and sequential
approach. It is termed a waterfall because the model develops
systematically from one phase to another in a downward fashion. The
waterfall approach does not define the process to go back to the
previous phase to handle changes in requirements. The waterfall
approach is the earliest approach that was used for software
development.
6) System Requirements
I. Hardware Requirement
i. Laptop or PC
 Windows 7 or higher
 I3 processor system or higher
 4 GB RAM or higher
 100 GB ROM or higher
II. Software Requirement
ii. Laptop or PC
 Python
 Sublime Text Editor
 XAMP Server
7) Limitations/Disadvantages
The patient cannot change the slot or date once booked.
It requires a large database.
8) Application –
