Efficient and patient-focused: scheduling appointments online

With the Online Booking System from OnlineAfspraken.nl, clients can easily and quickly book their own appointments anytime—24/7—via your website or your own booking app, even outside your working hours. This eliminates unnecessary communication, removes the barrier for clients to pick up the phone and call first, and saves you valuable time as a healthcare professional. Thanks to the integrated messaging feature, clients automatically receive appointment confirmations and reminders. This significantly reduces no-shows and ensures a smooth, transparent process.

Custom practice software tailored for healthcare professionals

OnlineAfspraken.nl is flexible and can be customized for various medical and paramedical disciplines. With the integrated client management system, you can easily manage client files—including personal details, notes, forms, and attachments. Additionally, you can choose to make the client file accessible to your clients if desired. Repeat appointments, separate calendars per staff member, and synchronization with existing calendars are also available. Customize which information you request from clients during booking to gain better insights and reduce unnecessary information requests.

GDPR-compliant & ISO 27001-certified

Data security is crucial in the medical sector. OnlineAfspraken.nl fully complies with the GDPR and is ISO 27001-certified. Data is securely stored on Dutch servers, and we provide a clear data processing agreement by default. This ensures you always work according to the highest security standards. Annual audits are conducted, along with ongoing optimizations and updates to guarantee security and functionality at all times.

Applications per specialization

OnlineAfspraken.nl is highly suitable for various medical and healthcare professions. More and more practitioners choose the system because it offers convenience and more time for clients. Below you’ll find some examples of applications for different disciplines. Whether you’re a physiotherapist in Utrecht, a dietitian in Eindhoven, or a psychologist in Amsterdam, the system can be a valuable addition in all these cases.

Physiotherapists

Let clients easily book appointments for intakes, schedule repeat appointments, quickly access client information, and easily manage your practice calendar.

Dietitians & nutrition coaches

Schedule intake and follow-up sessions, add notes and attachments, and create detailed client files with intake forms. Personalize your service with reminders to book follow-up appointments.

General practitioners & therapists

Use employee-specific schedules, make client files partially accessible to clients in their own client portal or app, send automatic appointment reminders, and reduce no-shows in your practice.

Visibility through Google

With the integration for Reserve with Google, (new) clients can book an appointment directly when they find your business profile on Google. This potentially increases the number of appointments and allows customers to book directly through Google without having to visit your website first. For example, if someone searches for “Physiotherapist Amsterdam” or “Dietitian Utrecht” and finds your business, they can immediately book an appointment via an “Book Online” button on your profile.

Client testimonial

For many years, I’ve benefited from the online appointment system as a therapist. It allows me to focus on the client instead of administrative hassle—what a convenience! Even during vacations, bookings continue smoothly for afterwards. Clients are enthusiastic too; they have control to easily book and cancel if needed. Highly recommended!
