You have an appointment with the doc. That's just a placeholder for them to schedule employees for the day. You sign you when you arrive, UTC timestamp. They produce a record of your responses, UTC timestamp. Tests, UTC timestamps.

Your appointment time is no longer the important item once it's in the past. It's probably easier to just get a list of your visits from the last year, and select the one you want to dig into. Not listed? Expand the range to 13 months. I doubt a situation exists where it matters that one must query the exact date and time in order to find that appointment.
