Google Calendar API, with Arbol. Your clinic's appointments, on your calendars.

Calendar and schedulingGlobal

What Google Calendar is

Google Calendar is Google's calendar, used with a personal Google Account or within Google Workspace.

It lets you create events, share calendars and publish appointment schedules with a booking page where others pick a time. Some appointment schedule features require a Google Workspace or Google One subscription.

Keep each provider's schedule and let patients book appointments in open slots.

What Arbol does with Google Calendar

  • Checks availability on your clinicians' Google Calendar calendars before offering a slot.
  • Creates the appointment as an event, with the patient's details and the link if it is a telehealth visit.
  • Moves or cancels it when the patient reschedules, and lets your team know.
