menu_book Abstract

This project presents a smart Symptom-Based Doctor Suggestion and Appointment Booking System designed to help users identify possible medical needs and connect them with appropriate doctors. Built using PHP/Node.js, MySQL/MongoDB, and JavaScript, the system allows users to input their current symptoms, after which a suggestion algorithm analyzes the data and recommends the most suitable doctors or medical departments.

The platform simplifies the process of seeking medical help by providing relevant doctor options, available time slots, and an integrated appointment booking system. The goal is to reduce confusion for patients, streamline the clinic/hospital workflow, and enhance the overall healthcare experience through intelligent digital guidance.

The system enables users to enter symptoms, such as fever, headache, stomach pain, or other conditions. A rule-based or keyword-matching algorithm maps these symptoms to medical specialties (e.g., Dermatology, ENT, General Physician) and suggests appropriate doctors.

Users can then view doctor profiles, availability, and directly book an appointment. Doctors can manage their schedules, approve appointments, and update their specialization information.

  • Assist users in identifying the right doctor based on symptoms

  • Digitalize appointment booking for clinics/hospitals

  • Reduce confusion and improve patient navigation
