It depends on where you are. In my part of the US a medical appointment generally means a time when you will see a doctor at his office. The hospital appointment means a time when you will either be admitted to a hospital or go to a hospital for tests. You can have a medical appointment to either see a doctor (or some other medical person) in a hospital. It's best to get more information as to the type of appointment.
