# Visualization

The **Visualization** section showcases all built-in plotting utilities included in `medscheduler.utils.plotting`.  
These functions provide a comprehensive view of synthetic scheduling data — from slot utilization and patient demographics  
to appointment outcomes, attendance behavior, and time-based distributions.

Use these visualizations to **evaluate realism**, **validate simulation parameters**, and **communicate scheduling dynamics** effectively in reports or notebooks.
