Quick Reference - Patient Booking Fix

🎯 The Fix in 30 Seconds

What was wrong: Patient bookings weren't showing in admin panel

What we fixed: Updated booking form to use logged-in user's patient record

Result: Appointments now properly linked and visible to both patient and admin ✅

🚀 Quick Start

# 1. Reset database with test accounts
python seed_data.py

# 2. Start application
python run.py

# 3. Test as patient (http://localhost:5000)
# Login: test@patient.com / test123
# Book an appointment

# 4. Test as admin
# Login: admin@hospital.com / admin123
# Check appointments panel - you'll see "Test Patient"

📋 Test Accounts

ADMIN:
Email: admin@hospital.com
Password: admin123

PATIENT:
Email: test@patient.com
Password: test123

✅ What Changed

Patient Booking Form

Before: Asked for name, age, gender, phone After: Shows logged-in user's info, only asks for appointment details

Database

Before: Appointments might not link correctly After: All appointments properly linked via User → Patient → Appointment

🧪 Verify It Works

python test_connection.py

Should show:

✅ Test User Found
✅ Patient Record
✅ ALL APPOINTMENTS PROPERLY LINKED!

  • app/templates/patient/book.html - Updated booking form
  • app/routes/patient_portal.py - Booking logic (already correct)
