Surgical Oncology Phone Problems: Reducing hold times with AI Receptionist Automation

Queues stretch forever when two humans juggle walk-ins, insurance, and nonstop calls. Canadian clinics juggle bilingual expectations and provincial privacy acts. Tumor boards, inpatient consults, and anxious families overwhelm a single number.

Why clinics feel the pain

• Patients hang up before a human ever says hello

• Staff put premium callers on hold to finish paperwork

• Supervisors lose visibility into real-time queue health

• Physicians insist on zero missed consults

• Clinical trials staff need structured data

• Patients expect English and French coverage even for after-hours triage.

How MedReception AI fixes it
