Abstract: In the present scenario, whenever any patient needs to visit a specialist doctor for treatment, availability of the doctor on time becomes a major issue. The patient needs to call in the clinic or go personally to the clinic to book the doctor’s appointment. This consumes lot of time and energy of the patient. Sometimes patients have a difficulty in deciding which specialist doctor to meet for a particular problem that they are suffering from. This paper proposes an Android application called as “MobiDoc” that will ease out the process of booking doctor’s appointment, predict the specialist doctor based on patient’s symptoms using Naive Bayesian classifier and also find out which is the nearest doctor/pharmacy in patient vicinity using Ranking algorithm, at any point of time or place. It is also useful for the doctors as they get to keep track of their patients on a system without the help of an assistant.
