No. An appointment is a formal reservation for a meeting with a superior.

Is a superior necessary to call a meeting an appointment or would an equated person match too?

Hi Michael,

An appointment is to me simply an arranged time and place for a meeting with someone. This can be with a doctor/dentist/hairdresser/whoever you like.
