I managed to change the patient email in the appointment even though this is not allowed by the application.
First, we test all the parameters that is not allowed to be changed.
The patient email appears to be changeable by the patient.
The impact is that if the appointment id is stolen by an attacker, he can change the email to his own email and hijack the correspondence with the hospital.

Parameter: email
Payload: changed
FirstBlood ID: 7
Vulnerability Type: Application/Business Logic
The endpoint MA.php (to modify an appointment) only allows for certain values to be modified, however due to some application logic error, if the user has tried to signup as a doctor and has the cookie "doctorAuthed" set, then it allows them to modify the email address for any appointment.
