AI Doctor App Rebuilt with Spring AI and Model Context Protocol

Swayam Verma, a developer from Bhopal, India, details how he rebuilt his AI health assistant application, "Virtual AI Doctor," by integrating the Model Context Protocol (MCP) with Spring AI. This shift moved the application away from prompt stuffing towards agentic tool calling, allowing the AI model to dynamically request patient profile data and flag high-severity emergencies as structured actions rather than parsing text. The updated architecture, utilizing Java, Spring Boot, and Groq's Llama 3.1 model, enhances efficiency by only fetching necessary data and improves the reliability of emergency detection, with plans for further enhancements like real-time chat and voice input. AI
