This project describes the development and benefits of the Online medical appointment scheduling system, a software that aims to improve the scheduling process in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. This system was developed using various programming languages such as HTML, PHP and CSS using the waterfall method. This is an effective way of developing an application as it ensures that the entire software is done efficiently up to completion. This led to the development of a system which could automate the entire appointment process for the doctors and patients. This will lead to a whole lot of benefits as discussed in the paper.
