## Description

GetDoctor is a comprehensive Chrome extension designed to create a virtual waiting room experience, allowing patients to check in without physical contact. This system notifies patients when it's their turn via parking lot notifications, minimizing potential exposure to illnesses and enhancing safety during in-person medical visits.

By streamlining patient check-in, GetDoctor helps healthcare providers maintain a safe environment for both staff and patients. It improves operational efficiency, supports appointment adherence—especially for essential visits like immunizations—and fosters long-term patient loyalty. The extension ultimately aids in sustaining financial health by increasing patient volume and satisfaction even during challenging times.
