Coined as “CheckApp”, the said web-based application displays the time and date of doctors’ availability so that patients can easily book their visit to their doctors ahead of time.



“With CheckApp, patients will no longer need to call for reservation and wait for long hours at the OPD for their queues as they will already have guaranteed slots once they schedule using CheckApp,” TMC Iloilo Chief Marketing Officer Prince Juliene Hermaine Celo said.
