Sound Familiar?

These problems cost private clinics patients and revenue every day.

Patients book elsewhere

They enquire at 9pm, you reply at 9am. By then they've found another clinic.

Valuable time on admin

Inconsistent information

Different staff give different answers about treatments, costs, and wait times.

Zero Hallucination Guarantee

The biggest fear with AI in healthcare: "What if it invents symptoms or gives wrong medical information?"

Our chatbot is not ChatGPT. It uses RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) — meaning it can only answer from your approved content: service descriptions, pricing, FAQs, and clinic policies that you control.

No invented medical information

"I Don't Know" Response

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about AI chatbots for healthcare.

Yes. The chatbot includes medical disclaimers in all responses, never provides medical advice or diagnoses, and clearly directs patients to consult healthcare professionals. Emergency symptoms (chest pain, breathing difficulty, etc.) trigger immediate 999/A&E signposting.

We integrate with EMIS, SystmOne, Doctify, Cliniko, WriteUpp, and most UK clinic software. New appointments flow directly into your system with patient details and conversation history.

The AI is trained to recognise emergency symptoms and immediately directs patients to call 999 or go to A&E. This safety response takes priority over all other functionality. Non-urgent concerns are appropriately signposted to NHS 111 or GP consultations.

Yes. The chatbot can provide pricing for all services, explain what's included, discuss insurance coverage (Bupa, AXA, Vitality, etc.), and help patients understand payment options.

All data is processed in the UK under GDPR. Patient information is encrypted at rest and in transit, minimal necessary data is collected, and we follow NHS Data Security and Protection Toolkit guidelines. Data Processing Agreements are provided.

Yes. Integration with your clinic software shows available slots. Patients select their preferred time, provide contact details, and receive confirmation. All bookings sync automatically with your system.

The AI supports 100+ languages, explains UK private healthcare to international patients, handles different time zones for appointment booking, and can discuss payment requirements for overseas patients.

Typical timeline: 2-3 weeks for basic setup (services + FAQ), 4-6 weeks for full clinic software integration. We handle everything — you review and approve.
