Doctolib says you already have an appointment: what to check before replacing it

If Doctolib says an appointment is already scheduled while you make a new booking, pause at that message. Identify the patient, clinician and date concerned before choosing between the two appointments.

Help describes an administrative rule for some medical and allied-health specialties: two appointments less than six days apart may be prevented. It does not establish that this rule applies to vaccination at Kennedy.

The booking process offers “Conserver ce RDV” if you prefer to keep the original appointment. Choose it when that appointment still matches your intention, without confirming a replacement simply to dismiss the warning.

The other choice is “Remplacer par ce nouveau RDV”. Before using it, check that the new appointment is the one you want to keep. Afterwards, read the displayed result and the confirmation you receive.

If you need separate appointments close together, Doctolib recommends contacting the establishment or its reception team directly. Explain what you need and which appointment already exists before replacing one.

This booking rule is not a medical interval between vaccines. Discuss injection dates with the professional. Keep the administrative booking choice separate from the medical instructions that apply to you.
