Doctor Appointment Management System with PHP & MySQL

In our previous tutorial we have developed Library Management System with PHP & MySQL. In this tutorial we will develop Online Doctor Appointment Management System with PHP and MySQL.

Online Doctor Appointment Management System is a web application that allows administrator to manage doctors, manage patients and manage appointments.

Here we will develop a live example of Online Doctor Appointment Management System and cover following.

The Administrator will do the following:

Manage Doctors.
Manage Patients.
Manage Appointment.
Manage Users

So let’s implement Online Doctor Appointment Management System. The file structure are:

doctor-appointment-management-system
- config
  - database.php
- class
  - User.php
  - Doctor.php
  - Patient.php
  - Appointment.php
  - Specialization.php
- js
  - doctor.js
  - patient.js
  - appointment.js
  - specialization.js
  - user.js
- index.php
- dashboard.php
- doctor.php
- patient.php
- appointment.php
- specialization.php
- user.php

Step1: MySQL Database Tables

First we will create MySQL database tables for our system.

We will create table hms_appointments to store appointment details.

CREATE TABLE `hms_appointments` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `patient_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `specialization_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `doctor_id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `consultancy_fee` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `appointment_date` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `appointment_time` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `created` datetime NOT NULL DEFAULT current_timestamp(),
  `status` enum('Active','Cancelled','Completed','') NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4;

we will create table hms_doctor to store doctor details.

CREATE TABLE `hms_doctor` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `name` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `email` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `address` text NOT NULL,
  `mobile` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `fee` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `specialization` int(255) NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4;

we will create table hms_specialization to store doctor specialization details.

CREATE TABLE `hms_specialization` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `specialization` varchar(255) NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4;

we will create table hms_patients to store patient details.

CREATE TABLE `hms_patients` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `name` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `email` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `gender` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `mobile` varchar(255) NOT NULL,
  `address` text NOT NULL,
  `age` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `medical_history` text NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4;

we will create table hms_slots to store time slots details of doctor availibility.

CREATE TABLE `hms_slots` (
  `id` int(11) NOT NULL,
  `slots` varchar(255) NOT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4;

we will create table hms_users to store user login details.

CREATE TABLE `hms_users` (
  `id` int(11) UNSIGNED NOT NULL,
  `first_name` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `last_name` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `email` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL,
  `password` varchar(64) NOT NULL,
  `role` varchar(255) DEFAULT NULL
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

Step2: Manage Doctors

We will create doctor.php file and create HTML to manage doctors details.

<div class="container-fluid">	
	<div class="row row-offcanvas row-offcanvas-left">		
		<div class="col-md-9 col-lg-10 main"> 
		<h2>Manage Doctor</h2> 
		<div class="panel-heading">
		<div class="row">
			<div class="col-md-10">
				<h3 class="panel-title"></h3>
			</div>
			<div class="col-md-2" align="right">
				<button type="button" id="addDoctor" class="btn btn-success" title="Add Doctor"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus">Add</span></button>
			</div>
		</div>
	</div>
	<table id="doctorListing" class="table table-bordered table-striped">
		<thead>
			<tr>
				<th>#</th>
				<th>Name</th>					
				<th>Address</th>					
				<th>Mobile</th>
				<th>Fee</th>
				<th>Specialization</th>	
				<th></th>
				<th></th>	
				<th></th>					
			</tr>
		</thead>
	</table>
</div>

In doctor.js file, we will initialize DataTable and amake ajax request to doctor_action.php with action listDoctors to list doctors record.

var doctorRecords = $('#doctorListing').DataTable({
	"lengthChange": false,
	"processing":true,
	"serverSide":true,		
	"bFilter": false,
	'serverMethod': 'post',		
	"order":[],
	"ajax":{
		url:"doctor_action.php",
		type:"POST",
		data:{action:'listDoctors'},
		dataType:"json"
	},
	"columnDefs":[
		{
			"targets":[0, 6, 7, 8],
			"orderable":false,
		},
	],
	"pageLength": 10
});

In doctor_action.php file, we will include class Doctor.php and created object. Then we will check for action listDoctors and call method listDoctors() from class Doctor.php using object.

include_once 'class/Doctor.php';
$doctor = new Doctor();

if(!empty($_POST['action']) && $_POST['action'] == 'listDoctors') {
	$doctor->listDoctors();
}

now we will implement method listDoctors() in class Doctor.php to list doctors record.

public function listDoctors(){
		
	$sqlWhere = '';
	if($_SESSION["role"] == 'doctor') { 
		$sqlWhere = " WHERE doctor.id = '".$_SESSION["userid"]."'";
	}	
	
	$sqlQuery = "SELECT doctor.id, doctor.name, doctor.address, doctor.mobile, doctor.fee, specialization.specialization
	FROM ".$this->doctorTable." doctor
	LEFT JOIN ".$this->specializationTable." specialization ON specialization.id = doctor.specialization
	$sqlWhere ";
	
	if(!empty($_POST["search"]["value"])){
		$sqlQuery .= ' AND (doctor.id LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR doctor.name LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';			
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR doctor.mobile LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR doctor.address LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR doctor.fee LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR doctor.specialization LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%") ';								
	}
	
	if(!empty($_POST["order"])){
		$sqlQuery .= 'ORDER BY '.$_POST['order']['0']['column'].' '.$_POST['order']['0']['dir'].' ';
	} else {
		$sqlQuery .= 'ORDER BY id DESC ';
	}
	
	if($_POST["length"] != -1){
		$sqlQuery .= 'LIMIT ' . $_POST['start'] . ', ' . $_POST['length'];
	}
	
	$stmt = $this->conn->prepare($sqlQuery);
	$stmt->execute();
	$result = $stmt->get_result();	
	
	$stmtTotal = $this->conn->prepare("SELECT * FROM ".$this->doctorTable." $sqlWhere " );
	$stmtTotal->execute();
	$allResult = $stmtTotal->get_result();
	$allRecords = $allResult->num_rows;
	
	$displayRecords = $result->num_rows;
	$records = array();		
	while ($doctor = $result->fetch_assoc()) { 				
		$rows = array();			
		$rows[] = $doctor['id'];
		$rows[] = ucfirst($doctor['name']);
		$rows[] = $doctor['address'];		
		$rows[] = $doctor['mobile'];	
		$rows[] = $doctor['fee'];	
		$rows[] = $doctor['specialization'];						
		$rows[] = '<button type="button" name="view" id="'.$doctor["id"].'" class="btn btn-info btn-xs view"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-file" title="View">View</span></button>';			
		$rows[] = '<button type="button" name="update" id="'.$doctor["id"].'" class="btn btn-warning btn-xs update"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-edit" title="Edit">Edit</span></button>';
		$rows[] = '<button type="button" name="delete" id="'.$doctor["id"].'" class="btn btn-danger btn-xs delete" ><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove" title="Delete">Delete</span></button>';
		$records[] = $rows;
	}
	
	$output = array(
		"draw"	=>	intval($_POST["draw"]),			
		"iTotalRecords"	=> 	$displayRecords,
		"iTotalDisplayRecords"	=>  $allRecords,
		"data"	=> 	$records
	);
	
	echo json_encode($output);
}

we will also check for actions addDoctor and updateDoctor and call method insert() and update() to add and update doctor records.

if(!empty($_POST['action']) && $_POST['action'] == 'addDoctor') {	
	$doctor->name = $_POST["name"];
    $doctor->fee = $_POST["fee"];
    $doctor->specialization = $_POST["specialization"];
	$doctor->mobile = $_POST["mobile"];
	$doctor->address = $_POST["address"];
	$doctor->email = $_POST["email"];	
	$doctor->insert();
}
if(!empty($_POST['action']) && $_POST['action'] == 'updateDoctor') {
	$doctor->id = $_POST["id"];
	$doctor->name = $_POST["name"];
    $doctor->fee = $_POST["fee"];
    $doctor->specialization = $_POST["specialization"];
	$doctor->mobile = $_POST["mobile"];
	$doctor->address = $_POST["address"];
	$doctor->email = $_POST["email"];	
	$doctor->update();
}

we will implement method insert() and update() in class Doctor.php to add and update doctors details.

public function insert(){
		
	if($this->name) {

		$stmt = $this->conn->prepare("
		INSERT INTO ".$this->doctorTable."(`name`, `email`, `mobile`, `address`, `fee`,`specialization`)
		VALUES(?,?,?,?,?,?)");
	
		$this->name = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->name));
		$this->email = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->email));
		$this->mobile = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->mobile));
		$this->address = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->address));	
		$this->fee = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->fee));	
		$this->specialization = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->specialization));
				
		$stmt->bind_param("ssssis", $this->name, $this->email, $this->mobile, $this->address, $this->fee, $this->specialization);
		
		if($stmt->execute()){
			return true;
		}		
	}
}

public function update(){
	
	if($this->id) {		
					
		$stmt = $this->conn->prepare("
			UPDATE ".$this->doctorTable." 
			SET name= ?, email = ?, mobile = ?, address = ?, fee = ?, specialization = ? 
			WHERE id = ?");
 
		$this->id = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->id));
		$this->name = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->name));
		$this->email = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->email));
		$this->mobile = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->mobile));
		$this->address = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->address));	
		$this->fee = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->fee));	
		$this->specialization = htmlspecialchars(strip_tags($this->specialization));			
		
		$stmt->bind_param("ssssisi", $this->name, $this->email, $this->mobile, $this->address, $this->fee, $this->specialization, $this->id);
		
		if($stmt->execute()){
			return true;
		}
		
	}	
}

Step3: Manage Patients

We will create patient.php and create html to manage patients.

<div class="container-fluid">	
	<div class="row row-offcanvas row-offcanvas-left">			
		<div class="col-md-9 col-lg-10 main"> 
		<h2>Manage Patient</h2> 
	<div class="panel-heading">
		<div class="row">
			<div class="col-md-10">
				<h3 class="panel-title"></h3>
			</div>
			<?php if($_SESSION["role"] != 'patient') { ?>
			<div class="col-md-2" align="right">
				<button type="button" id="addPatient" class="btn btn-success" title="Add Patient"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus">Add</span></button>
			</div>
			<?php } ?>
		</div>
	</div>
	<table id="patientListing" class="table table-bordered table-striped">
		<thead>
			<tr>
				<th>#</th>
				<th>Name</th>					
				<th>Gender</th>	
				<th>Age</th>	
				<th>Email</th>
				<th>Mobile</th>
				<th>Address</th>
				<th>Medical History</th>
				<th></th>
				<th></th>	
				<th></th>					
			</tr>
		</thead>
	</table>
</div>

In patient.js file, we will initialize DataTable and make ajax request to patient_action.php with action listPatient to list patient records.

var patientRecords = $('#patientListing').DataTable({
	"lengthChange": false,
	"processing":true,
	"serverSide":true,		
	"bFilter": false,
	'serverMethod': 'post',		
	"order":[],
	"ajax":{
		url:"patient_action.php",
		type:"POST",
		data:{action:'listPatient'},
		dataType:"json"
	},
	"columnDefs":[
		{
			"targets":[0, 8, 9, 10],
			"orderable":false,
		},
	],
	"pageLength": 10
});

In patient_action.php, we will check for action listPatient and call method listPatients() from class Patient.php using object.

include_once 'class/Patient.php';
$patient = new Patient();

if(!empty($_POST['action']) && $_POST['action'] == 'listPatient') {
	$patient->listPatients();
}

We will implement method listPatients() in class Patient.php list pateint records.

public function listPatients(){

	$sqlWhere = '';
	if($_SESSION["role"] == 'patient') { 
		$sqlWhere = "WHERE id = '".$_SESSION["userid"]."'";
	}		
	$sqlQuery = "SELECT * FROM ".$this->patientTable." $sqlWhere";
	if(!empty($_POST["search"]["value"])){
		$sqlQuery .= ' AND (name LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';			
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR email LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR gender LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR mobile LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR address LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';				
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR age LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%") ';							
	}
	
	if(!empty($_POST["order"])){
		$sqlQuery .= 'ORDER BY '.$_POST['order']['0']['column'].' '.$_POST['order']['0']['dir'].' ';
	} else {
		$sqlQuery .= 'ORDER BY id DESC ';
	}
	
	if($_POST["length"] != -1){
		$sqlQuery .= 'LIMIT ' . $_POST['start'] . ', ' . $_POST['length'];
	}
	
	$stmt = $this->conn->prepare($sqlQuery);
	$stmt->execute();
	$result = $stmt->get_result();	
	
	$stmtTotal = $this->conn->prepare("SELECT * FROM ".$this->patientTable." $sqlWhere");
	$stmtTotal->execute();
	$allResult = $stmtTotal->get_result();
	$allRecords = $allResult->num_rows;
	
	$displayRecords = $result->num_rows;
	$records = array();		
	while ($patient = $result->fetch_assoc()) { 				
		$rows = array();			
		$rows[] = $patient['id'];
		$rows[] = ucfirst($patient['name']);
		$rows[] = $patient['gender'];
		$rows[] = $patient['age'];
		$rows[] = $patient['email'];
		$rows[] = $patient['mobile'];	
		$rows[] = $patient['address'];			
		$rows[] = $patient['medical_history'];			
		$rows[] = '<button type="button" name="view" id="'.$patient["id"].'" class="btn btn-info btn-xs view"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-file" title="View">View</span></button>';			
		$rows[] = '<button type="button" name="update" id="'.$patient["id"].'" class="btn btn-warning btn-xs update"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-edit" title="Edit">Edit</span></button>';
		if($_SESSION["role"] != 'patient') {
			$rows[] = '<button type="button" name="delete" id="'.$patient["id"].'" class="btn btn-danger btn-xs delete" ><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove" title="Delete">Delete</span></button>';
		} else {
			$rows[] = '';
		}
		$records[] = $rows;
	}
	
	$output = array(
		"draw"	=>	intval($_POST["draw"]),			
		"iTotalRecords"	=> 	$displayRecords,
		"iTotalDisplayRecords"	=>  $allRecords,
		"data"	=> 	$records
	);
	
	echo json_encode($output);
}

Step4: Manage Appointment

We will create appointment.php file and create HTML to manage appointments.

<div class="container-fluid">	
	<div class="row row-offcanvas row-offcanvas-left">			
		<div class="col-md-9 col-lg-10 main"> 
		<h2>Manage Appointment</h2> 
	<div class="panel-heading">
		<div class="row">
			<div class="col-md-10">
				<h3 class="panel-title"></h3>
			</div>
			<?php if($user->isAdmin()) { ?>
			<div class="col-md-2" align="right">
				<button type="button" id="createAppointment" class="btn btn-success" title="Create Appointment"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus">Add</span></button>
			</div>
			<?php } ?>
		</div>
	</div>
	<table id="appointmentListing" class="table table-bordered table-striped">
		<thead>
			<tr>
				<th>#</th>
				<th>Patient</th>
				<th>Doctor</th>					
				<th>Specialization</th>	
				<th>Fee</th>	
				<th>Apointment Time</th>
				<th>Apointment Date</th>
				<th>Status</th>
				<th></th>
				<th></th>	
				<th></th>					
			</tr>
		</thead>
	</table>
</div>

In appointment.js file, we will initialize DataTable and make ajax request to appointment_action.php with action listAppointment to list appointment records.

var appointmentRecords = $('#appointmentListing').DataTable({
	"lengthChange": false,
	"processing":true,
	"serverSide":true,		
	"bFilter": false,
	'serverMethod': 'post',		
	"order":[],
	"ajax":{
		url:"appointment_action.php",
		type:"POST",
		data:{action:'listAppointment'},
		dataType:"json"
	},
	"columnDefs":[
		{
			"targets":[0, 8, 9, 10],
			"orderable":false,
		},
	],
	"pageLength": 10
});

In appointment_action.php, we will inlcude class Appointment.php and create object of it. We will check for action listAppointment and call method listAppointment() from appointment class.

include_once 'class/Appointment.php';

$appointment = new Appointment();

if(!empty($_POST['action']) && $_POST['action'] == 'listAppointment') {
	$appointment->listAppointment();
}

We will implement method listAppointment() in class Appointment.php to list and manage appointment records.

public function listAppointment(){
		
	$sqlWhere = '';
	if($_SESSION["role"] == 'patient') { 
		$sqlWhere = "WHERE a.patient_id = '".$_SESSION["userid"]."'";
	}	
	
	$sqlQuery = "SELECT a.id, d.name as doctor_name, s.specialization, a.consultancy_fee, appointment_date, a.appointment_time, a.created, a.status, p.name as patient_name, p.id as patient_id, slot.slots
		FROM ".$this->appointmentTable." a 
		LEFT JOIN ".$this->doctorTable." d ON a.doctor_id = d.id
		LEFT JOIN ".$this->patientsTable." p ON a.patient_id = p.id
		LEFT JOIN ".$this->slotsTable." slot ON slot.id = a.appointment_time
		LEFT JOIN ".$this->specializationTable." s ON a.specialization_id = s.id $sqlWhere ";
		
		
	if(!empty($_POST["search"]["value"])){
		$sqlQuery .= ' AND (a.id LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR d.name LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';			
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR s.specialization LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR a.consultancy_fee LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR a.appointment_date LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%" ';
		$sqlQuery .= ' OR a.appointment_time LIKE "%'.$_POST["search"]["value"].'%") ';					
	}
	
	if(!empty($_POST["order"])){
		$sqlQuery .= 'ORDER BY '.$_POST['order']['0']['column'].' '.$_POST['order']['0']['dir'].' ';
	} else {
		$sqlQuery .= 'ORDER BY a.id DESC ';
	}
	
	if($_POST["length"] != -1){
		$sqlQuery .= 'LIMIT ' . $_POST['start'] . ', ' . $_POST['length'];
	}		
	$stmt = $this->conn->prepare($sqlQuery);
	$stmt->execute();
	$result = $stmt->get_result();	
	
	$stmtTotal = $this->conn->prepare("SELECT * FROM ".$this->appointmentTable." as a $sqlWhere");
	$stmtTotal->execute();
	$allResult = $stmtTotal->get_result();
	$allRecords = $allResult->num_rows;
	
	$displayRecords = $result->num_rows;
	$records = array();		
	while ($appointment = $result->fetch_assoc()) { 				
		$rows = array();			
		$rows[] = $appointment['id'];
		$rows[] = ucfirst($appointment['patient_name']);
		$rows[] = ucfirst($appointment['doctor_name']);
		$rows[] = $appointment['specialization'];
		$rows[] = $appointment['consultancy_fee'];
		$rows[] = $appointment['slots'];
		$rows[] = $appointment['appointment_date'];	
		$rows[] = $appointment['status'];					
		$rows[] = '<button type="button" name="view" id="'.$appointment["id"].'" class="btn btn-info btn-xs view"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-file" title="View">View</span></button>';
		if($_SESSION["role"] == 'admin' || $_SESSION["role"] == 'patient') { 
			$rows[] = '<button type="button" name="update" id="'.$appointment["id"].'" class="btn btn-warning btn-xs update"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-edit" title="Edit">Edit</span></button>';
			$rows[] = '<button type="button" name="delete" id="'.$appointment["id"].'" class="btn btn-danger btn-xs delete" ><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-remove" title="Delete">Delete</span></button>';
		} else {
			$rows[] = '';
			$rows[] = '';
			$rows[] = '';
		}
		$records[] = $rows;
	}
	
	$output = array(
		"draw"	=>	intval($_POST["draw"]),			
		"iTotalRecords"	=> 	$displayRecords,
		"iTotalDisplayRecords"	=>  $allRecords,
		"data"	=> 	$records
	);
	
	echo json_encode($output);
}

We have already implemented methods to manage appointment functionality. The project complete source code is available in download project file.
