Sounds like it has all the features necessary to allow it to be used to
generate either chaos or organization whatever is one's "bent".

Ah well, I am living in constant disorganized chaos anyway (to the dismay of

my wife and my receptionists)

The booking form allows to select quick/standard/long appointment (5 min, 15

min, 30min) - a help screen explains which is to be used for what purpose.

After first log in patients will have to go through a wizard style 
introduction explaining how the system works

Anything more complex will currently require them to ring up and make the 
appointment the conventional way - if the online system is too complex, it 
will not be used correctly I am afraid.

The receptionists can "tag" appointments with any number of tags (both text 
and/or icons, e.g. "procedure", "work cover", "CBT") and appointments can be

made in 1 minute increments (with user configurable default time slots of 
course for level A-D consults)
