The Google company has begun to carry out various tests within the United States so that from its search engine you can request an appointment with a doctor.
Thanks to the inclusion of a small section in the results that are displayed when searching for clinics, hospitals or private practices, now anyone within the United States can request an appointment to meet with a doctor .
Google wants to make making an appointment with a doctor simple and fast
By officially announcing it from its blog in English, Google has made it very clear that it wants its search engine to be more than just a website to find information.
Collaborating with one of the most important clinics in the United States, MinuteClinic to be exact, the big G showed in various captures that North American residents will have the possibility of making an appointment with a doctor simply and quickly.
According to what they have explained from Google, the steps that a person has to take to request an appointment with a doctor using the search engine are these:
- You must write the name of the clinic, hospital or office where you want to make an appointment (you can even write the name of the doctor with whom you want to make the appointment).
- Google will return a series of results.
- The user will be able to click on a button called “Schedule” to request an appointment with a specialist.
Could Google bring this system to Spain?
Although it is still too early to draw conclusions, it is most likely that Google will implement this service , free by the way, not only in Spain, but also in most of the countries where it is present .
Although there are applications that allow you to make appointments with doctors, even private clinics have their own applications, what Google is proposing would make things much easier in general .
Without much more to add, it is worth remembering that this function is in the testing phase, so over the next few months we could see changes as well as new features.
