Case study 10 · Inquiry forms and follow-up

Helping new patient appointments visitors state their purpose

With new patient appointments, visitors identify their purpose before typing a word. Staff receive a meaningful category with every message and can keep ongoing conversations apart from new ones.

The story

Whereitstarted,andwhat we changed

Three stations, in the order the practice lived them. The first two are the practice's description of the old way; the third is the build.

  1. Station 01

    Starting point

    The new patient appointments contact route made no distinction between a first approach and a follow-up on an active matter.

  2. Station 02

    The problem

    When it comes to new patient appointments, nothing in the inbox indicated what a message was for. Staff opened each one blind, sorting new requests from follow-ups by hand.

  3. Station 03

    What we built

    Visitors now begin by choosing their purpose: a new inquiry, an existing request or a general question. Each leads to its own route, with the new-inquiry form collecting visit reason, preferred day and callback details.

Answers

Questionsaboutthis case study

How long did this project take for the dental hygiene and preventive care clinic?

15 working days after content approval, including staff review and handover. The clock starts when the practice approves the content, so the build never waits on a draft nobody has signed off.

Which parts of the build did this case use?

Contact categories, Separate follow-up route, Relevant form fields, Clear button labels. Each one is listed above with a link to the part of the package that carries it.

Why is the practice not named?

The practice agreed to share the work and their words on the condition that the business stays anonymous. You see the practice type, the region and the team size, and the quote is attributed to Ursula Merrick, patient services supervisor, by name and role.

Could our practice get the same thing?

Very likely, because this is the kind of work every plan is built around. Plans start at $137 a month with the $797 build fee invoiced only after launch. Book a demo and we show you how it would look and route on your own site before you commit to anything.
