Appointment Slot Alerts
Last updated 25 April 2026
The Appointment Reminders feature lets you register interest in a specific appointment slot. When the system detects a matching available slot at your chosen clinic, it notifies you automatically so you can book before someone else does.
This is useful when:
- A clinic is fully booked but you want the next available slot
- You need an appointment on a specific date
- You want to be notified the moment a cancellation opens up
Where to find it
Go to Dashboard → Preferences (accessible from the avatar menu in the top-right corner of your dashboard).
Setting up an alert
- In Preferences, find the Appointment Reminders section
- Click Add Reminder
- Fill in the form:
| Field | Notes |
|---|---|
| Clinic | Required — choose from clinics you've interacted with |
| Doctor | Optional — leave blank for any available doctor |
| Service | Optional — filter to a specific service type |
| Preferred date | The date you want the appointment |
| Preferred time | Time window from 9:00 am to 5:30 pm |
| Notify via | Email (default on), SMS, and/or in-app |
| Notes | Optional context for your own reference |
- Click Save — your alert is now active
Alert statuses
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Waiting | Monitoring for a matching slot |
| Found & Sent | A slot was found and you were notified |
| Completed | You've booked the appointment |
| Cancelled | You removed the alert |
When a slot is found
When the system finds a matching slot, you'll receive a notification via your chosen method. The alert card in the dashboard will show a green "Appointment Found!" banner with a Book Now button that takes you directly to that clinic's booking flow.
Note: Slot availability changes quickly. If a slot is filled by the time you click Book Now, you may need to wait for the next notification.
Removing an alert
Click the delete (bin) icon on any active reminder to remove it. Removing an alert stops future notifications for that slot.
