Dermatology

Every missed call is a lost new patient. Katie answers every inbound call instantly, qualifies the caller, and books the appointment, before they hang up or call your competitor.

Dermatology practices in Anaheim lose new patients to missed calls and voicemail.

No callbacks needed. No lost leads.

How it pays back

Convert Every Call Into a Scheduled Appointment

Callers who reach a live voice during their first attempt are far more likely to book. Katie qualifies intent (cosmetic consultation, skin check, urgent concern, follow-up) and books the slot before the call ends. No 'we'll call you back' delays that lead to cancellations or calls to another practice.

Capture Dermatology Intake Without Slowing Down the Call

Katie asks the questions your team needs: skin concern, location, how long, prior treatments, allergies, and whether the caller is a new patient or established. Responses are structured and EMR-pasteable so your clinicians review them in seconds, not minutes.

No Setup Fees, No Overstaffing, No Callbacks to Manage

Launch takes about one week from signup. You pay for the minutes you use each month on a managed plan with a monthly block of minutes and per-minute rate. MedReception handles the call volume, your staff focuses on care. Failed bookings are escalated to your team, not lost.

Your EMR Stays in Sync, Your Data Stays Secure

Appointment bookings, new patient records, and demographics write directly to your EMR during the call. Intake details are captured on the call and returned as a structured, EMR-pasteable summary for your team to review and file. MedReception is HIPAA compliant (verified by Compliancy Group) and signs a BAA. You own the patient data; Katie is a tool you control.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if Katie can't book the appointment?

If your schedule is full or the caller's preferred time is unavailable, Katie logs the request and escalates it to your staff with all intake details. Your team can reach out for manual scheduling or offer alternatives. No lead is lost.

Does Katie handle urgent skin cancer concerns or reactions?

Yes. You set escalation rules. If a caller reports severe symptoms, rash, or concerns that match your urgent criteria, Katie routes the call to your staff immediately or offers an urgent appointment slot. Katie does not diagnose; your team decides next steps.

Can Katie book cosmetic consultations and medical visits differently?

Yes. During intake, Katie asks whether the visit is cosmetic or medical. You can set different booking rules, availability, or routing for each type. Cosmetic consultations can go to your cosmetic coordinator; medical concerns to your dermatologist.

How long does it take to get Katie live?

About one week from signup. Your EMR connection and phone number are ready in 1 to 3 days. Registering the number for patient texting takes about 5 business days. You can start answering calls before texting is live.

What if we switch EMRs later?

Katie stays with you. MedReception is EMR-independent and portable. If you move to a different system, your AI receptionist moves with you. Custom integration available: want MedReception integrated with your new EMR? We build custom EHR integrations; book a demo and we will scope yours.
