OPD capacity and waiting time calculator
Enter how many doctors are in OPD, their hours and the average consultation time. The planner shows how many patients you can see per day and per hour, and how long a patient arriving now will wait behind those already in the queue.

How it's calculated
Capacity per day = doctors × hours × 60 ÷ consultation minutes. Expected wait for a new arrival ≈ patients waiting × consultation minutes ÷ doctors. Real days drift: consultations vary and doctors start late. QueroCura learns each doctor's real consultation times and shows the real wait for every slot.
Frequently asked questions
How do you reduce OPD waiting time?
