Online booking for audiologists

Audiology appointments follow a path: a hearing test, a consultation to discuss options, a fitting when hearing aids are chosen, then several adjustment and follow-up visits over the following weeks and years. Other appointments stand alone, such as tinnitus assessments or earwax removal. Much of the testing happens in a booth where you can't take calls.

For people with hearing loss, phoning is often the hardest way to book. Online booking lets them — or a son, a daughter or a carer — choose an appointment in writing, at their own pace.

On Book, each appointment type is a service with its own description and price, and you open slots for each at the length it takes: 45 minutes to an hour for tests and fittings, 30 minutes for adjustments. If some appointments are free or included with a device, show it clearly in the service. Use the description to say how to prepare, for example bringing current hearing aids or a recent audiogram.

Patients receive a confirmation email; you receive an email for each new booking. Reschedule or cancel from your bookings list, and sync with Google, iPhone or Mac. Book doesn't keep audiograms, patient records or sales. It costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited bookings, no commission, no contract.

Your page shows times in your business's time zone, with its name displayed, so there's no confusion for clients booking from elsewhere. To fill a regular week quickly, create a slot once and repeat it on the weekdays you choose until an end date.
