Clinics & healthcare

Reception is three deep. The phone still gets answered.

Patients ring at lunchtime and reach an answerphone, or wait behind the queue at the desk. Ferrison answers every one of those calls, books what it can and takes proper details for the rest.

What it handles

Cover for the hours your desk cannot.

Always answers

Lunch hours and evenings

The calls that currently hit voicemail get a real conversation instead, at any hour.

Bookings

By appointment type

Books the right length of appointment with the right clinician, confirms it, and sends a reminder before the day.

Enquiries

Callback requests captured

When something needs a person, it takes the name, number and reason and puts it in front of your team.

FAQs

The admin questions

Opening hours, location, parking, what to bring and how to prepare, answered from your own information.

Handover

Knows when to stop

It does not give clinical advice. Anything clinical or urgent is captured in full and flagged for your team to call back.

Memory

One thread per patient

Calls, texts and online chats from the same patient stay in one conversation, so nobody has to repeat themselves.

How it sounds

A lunchtime call that would have gone to voicemail.

Illustrative example — not a real customer conversation
Caller

Hello, I would like to book a physio appointment for my lower back.

Ferrison

Of course. An initial physiotherapy assessment runs 45 minutes. We have Wednesday at 11:00 or Thursday at 4:30 — would either work?

Caller

Thursday at 4:30. And could someone call me about whether I can claim it on my insurance?

Ferrison

Booked for Thursday at 4:30. I have noted the insurance question and passed it to the team with your number, and they will call you back about that.

✓ Appointment booked, plus a callback request captured for the team.
What it costs

No subscription. Pay only for what it answers.
