A new Alexa skill that helps make the process of visiting the doctor easier made at HackIllinois 2017. You can tell MyDoctor your symptoms, and MyDoctor will send your symptoms to your doctor using medical industry standard codes and create an appointment. You're welcome to add as many symptoms as you'd like, and we'll send your doctor what we think is the symptom you're describing as well as alternatives.
- Obtain an email address, IMO API, Twilio API, and API.AI API keys. (Preface of mydoctor.py).
- Obtain PythonAnywhere, Microsoft Azure, Google App Engine, or Firebase platform hosting.
- Create a new Alexa skill and use the configuration in CONFIGURATION.md to configure it.
