[http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/26/business/26health.html?ref=business] Considering that you guys are aiming at simplifying the "Doc Appointments" process, I see DocASAP a very nice fit in line with expectations of the community(There has to be +Ve correlation b/w simpler/easier/transparent Appointment process and medical appointments!). I hope that users start associating DocASAP as a default way to schedule their medical appointments like they associate Mapquest with road navigation now. (Afterall both Portals intend to make lives easier :)) All the very best and keep posting thought provoking 'n' informative posts!
