ZocDoc

ZocDoc provides an online service for patients to book dentist and doctor appointments instantly. Within a few clicks, an appointment is booked and confirmed, sometimes for the same day.

Using the service, patients don’t need to go through the hassle of waiting on hold, searching for a good doctor or wondering whether a doctor takes a particular insurance.

Participating doctors and dentists benefit as well. ZocDoc argues the site give docs “wider visibility, attracting new patients, and even helping alleviate the productivity lost from last minute cancellations by filling those times with another patient.”

The service was founded by serial entrepreneurs Cyrus Massoumi and Oliver Kharraz, MD, ZocDoc’s service is currently allowing users to book dental appointments in Manhattan. Other cities and specialties will be added soon (The company claims to have a growing waiting list for new doctors and dentists). The founders say they’ll let users vote online to determine how ZocDoc expands.

OpenTable is another service that lets users take advantage of last minute openings (but for restaurants).
