A healthcare clinic cut no-shows by 60% and saved 20+ hours weekly with AI appointment scheduling
Clinic Scheduling Assistant
The challenge
The reception team spent 20+ hours weekly answering phone calls, manually entering appointments, sending reminder SMS, and handling rescheduling requests. No-show rates sat at 30-40% due to ineffective reminders. Patients struggled to reschedule, often calling multiple times before reaching someone. The admin burden was growing with the patient base.
What we built
We built an AI-powered appointment scheduling system that operates 24/7 via WhatsApp and a web portal. Patients book with real-time availability checking. The system sends personalised reminders via WhatsApp and SMS at 24 hours and 2 hours before each appointment. Rescheduling happens conversationally through WhatsApp with the AI agent automatically suggesting alternative slots. No-shows receive automated follow-up messages with one-tap rescheduling.
