AI receptionist for clinics & health

The AI receptionist for dental practices

Reception is three deep at the desk and the phone is ringing off the hook. Every unanswered call is a new patient lost.

Dental, check-up & hygienist 0:00 / 1:10
Receptionist Good afternoon. Bridge Street Dental. How can I help?
Customer Hi there. I'd like to book a routine checkup and see the hygienist if possible as I'm a new patient.
Receptionist Perfect. I can absolutely arrange that for you. I've got next Tuesday afternoon available. Would 3 o'clock suit you?
Customer Yes. That sounds perfect for me. Thank you.
Receptionist Brilliant. I take your name and phone number, please?
Customer My name is James Okafor, and my number is 0 7 7 0 0 9 0 0 6 8 2.
Receptionist Thank you, James. So I've got you down for next Tuesday at 3 o'clock for a new patient exam with a hygienist. That's 45 pounds. And I'll text those details to 0 7 7 0 0 9 0 0 6 8 2. Does that all sound right?
Customer Yes. That's all correct. Thank you very much.
Receptionist Thanks so much. Goodbye.
Customer Goodbye.

Why dental practices lose work to the phone.

A new private patient is worth hundreds over their first year, an implant or ortho case far more. Missed new patient calls are the most expensive calls to lose.

The phone beats reception at peak times

When the waiting room is full your team cannot answer every call. New patient enquiries ring out and register with the practice up the road.

Emergencies need triage, not voicemail

A patient in pain will not wait on hold. subba answers, works out how urgent it is, and books an emergency slot or takes the details for the nurse.

Missed appointments cost the chair

An empty surgery slot is lost revenue and a longer wait for everyone else. Reminders and easy rescheduling keep the book tight.

How subba helps

A receptionist that never misses a call.

Answers in seconds, day or night

The moment a call, message or web enquiry lands, subba replies. While you are on the job, out of hours, at the weekend, it never rings out and never sleeps.

It actually books the appointment

This is not a message service. subba checks your real availability and books the customer straight into your diary, then sends the confirmation.

Sounds like you

It learns your services, your prices and your tone, so every reply reads like you wrote it, not a call centre. It talks like clinics & health customers expect.

Takes payment where you want it

For the jobs that need it, subba can take a deposit or full payment into your own Stripe when it books, so no-shows cost you nothing.

Most services take a message. subba books the job.

A call answering service jots down a name and number and hands it back to you to chase. subba checks your diary, books the appointment, takes the deposit and sends the confirmation, all before you have put your tools down. For dental practices, that is the difference between a lead and a booked job.

Questions

Dental practice FAQs.

Can it triage dental emergencies safely?

It follows the triage rules you set, books genuine emergencies into your urgent slots, and flags anything serious to your team. It never gives clinical advice, it gets the patient booked and seen.

Does it work alongside my reception team?

Yes. subba takes the overflow and the out of hours calls so your team is not drowning at the desk, and everything it books lands in the same diary.

How quickly can I get set up?

If you already have a website, subba plugs in with a one-line change and you can be live the same day. If you need a website, our Managed plan builds you a booking site and sets up your domain, usually live in about 5 working days.

What does it cost?

Plans start at £9.99 a month and every plan takes unlimited bookings. You only pay more as your enquiry volume grows. There is no setup fee unless you want us to build your website too, and you can cancel anytime.
