The Challenge

Front desk staff overwhelmed with appointment scheduling, patient inquiries, insurance verification, and follow-up coordination. Patient wait times for responses averaged 5+ minutes.

Key Pain Points

Single receptionist handling 100+ daily calls, emails, and walk-ins

Average patient wait time of 5-7 minutes for phone responses

Manual insurance verification process taking 15-20 minutes per patient

Missed appointment reminders leading to 30% no-show rate

No system for automated follow-up care coordination

After-hours inquiries going unanswered until next business day

As a dental practice, patient experience is everything. Before AI agents, our front desk was constantly overwhelmed, and patients often waited on hold for several minutes. Now, patients get instant responses 24/7, whether it's 2 PM or 2 AM. The system handles appointment scheduling, insurance verification, and even sends personalized follow-up care instructions. Our staff loves it because they can focus on patient care instead of administrative tasks. Our patients love it because they get immediate, accurate responses. It's been a game-changer for our practice.
