A demo booking and reception system for a fictional women's health clinic in Borrowdale, Harare: patients book on their phone, and the reception team works from one dashboard sharing the same live data.
Context
A demo we designed and built to show how a small clinic in Harare could take bookings without phone tag. The clinic, doctors and patients are fictional; the booking logic is real.
Design challenge
How do you make booking fast for patients on a phone, keep sensitive situations with a person, and stop reception from re-typing every WhatsApp request?
What we built
- Landing page with appointment types and set durations
- Six-step booking flow using real availability
- Urgent-help handoff that routes patients to a person instead of the booking flow
- Confirmation and reminder messages, with WhatsApp message previews
- Self-service rescheduling and cancellation
- Reception dashboard for the day's appointments
- Paste a patient message and AI drafts the booking for review
Key decisions
- Every part shares one live data set, so a cancellation immediately reopens the slot
- AI drafts bookings; a receptionist always confirms them
- Urgent needs leave the automated flow and go to a person
Boundaries
HerFlow Reception is an admin and scheduling tool. It does not give medical advice, triage or diagnose, and the demo contains no real patient data.
What this means for your business
- →WhatsApp & booking automation: patients book from their phone against real availability, instead of phone tag
- →Confirmations, reminders and rescheduling handled by the system, with cancellations reopening the slot automatically
- →Receptionists paste a WhatsApp message and AI drafts the booking for a person to check - faster admin, no loss of control
What this build shows
- Mobile-first booking UX
- WhatsApp-style reminders
- Human-reviewed AI drafting
- Shared real-time availability
- Reception dashboards
