Project Description

This project aims to create a healthcare RESTful web service built using FastAPI and Masonite ORM with SQLite as the database management system. It will allow users to manage patient information, medical records, appointments, and medication.

We’ll create the following key features of the healthcare API in this project:

Create, read, update, and delete patient information.
Create, read, edit, and delete patient medical records.
Create, read, edit, and delete patient appointments.
Create, read, edit, and delete patient medication.
Get a single patient’s medical records, appointments, and medication.

This healthcare API will be a reliable, scalable, and secure solution for managing patient information, medical records, appointments, and medication for healthcare-related businesses. We’ll learn how to create an API with FastAPI using Masonite ORM and pydantic.
