Learn about Healthcare appointment availability

Important Warning and Disclaimer

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, please call “911” immediately.

You can find appointment availability when you search for a healthcare provider on Google Search. Healthcare providers can be practitioners or service facilities.

Use the healthcare provider’s page on Google Search to explore appointments options. The appointment schedule is provided by third-party health partners.

Tips:

• To find the earliest available appointment dates, go to the "Overview" tab of a healthcare provider's page.
• To find a list of available appointments sorted by appointment type and earliest date for booking, go to the “Appointments” tab. 
• Select “Book” to go to the partner website. There, you can select your specific time slot and complete your booking. 
• To view all available appointments for a provider, go to the “More booking options” section at the bottom of the appointment tab, which will take you to the third-party health partner's website.

Click one of the links below “More booking options” on the bottom of the “Appointments” tab to explore the full list of appointment types offered by the given provider.

If your booking can be modified or canceled:

• Follow the instructions in your confirmation email from the booking partner.
• Call the business. This is recommended if your booking is between 1 to 2 days away.
• You may need to cancel your booking and book again with new information.

Google won’t send you a confirmation email since the appointment is booked in the healthcare provider's booking system. Whether you get a confirmation email will depend on the specific provider's booking platform.

Confirmation emails may be sent by the third-party booking site or directly from the provider. The healthcare provider may also follow up with an appointment reminder. If you don’t receive confirmation from the healthcare provider, please call the provider’s office to confirm.

The availability of future appointments varies depending on each third-party booking partner. Availability information may extend up to 6 months into the future.

All changes and cancellations are subject to each provider’s policies, which are listed on the booking partners’ sites. Google isn’t in charge of these policies.

Google doesn’t receive appointment price or copay information from third-party booking sites, so pricing isn’t available on our booking feature. It's always recommended to call the provider to confirm co-pay or pricing prior to your visit.
