The easiest approach would be to put the patient and doctor names both in the Subject field.

We want to start using the Outlook calendar to book doctor appintments in our
office.
However, we have two docs and they overlap an hour from 12:00 to 1:00.
Is there a way to have their appointments both at 12:00 and know which patient
is for which doc.? Appointments are booked at 15 min. intervals.
Basically, have two 12:00 - 1:00 areas on the page.
We use Outlook 2003.
