When phones go unanswered, patients are missed.

Practices rely on calls and texts to schedule care. But when the office is closed — or the front desk is handling multiple calls — patients often wait, leave voicemail, or hang up. Even well-staffed practices miss opportunities when demand spikes.

Never let a patient go to voicemail again.

Staff get overwhelmed by routine scheduling calls
Patients wait, leave voicemail, or hang up
Appointment requests are missed
Bookings are abandoned
Openings go unfilled and production is lost
Teams lose visibility into what happened

When Stella assists

Routine scheduling calls are handled automatically
Patients get a faster way to schedule care
More appointment requests are captured
More calls turn into booked appointments

Teams can see what happened with each interaction

Stella captures scheduling requests when your team is unavailable

When a patient calls outside office hours — or during high call volume — the Virtual Scheduling Assistant answers immediately.

Patients speak conversationally, request an appointment, and receive confirmation without waiting for the office to reopen.

Most practices begin by activating the AI Assistant after hours to capture missed appointments without changing daytime workflows.

Double your investment, guaranteed.

Patient Experience FAQs

Does a real person answer the phone?

When the Virtual Scheduling Assistant answers, patients are greeted immediately with a natural, conversational voice—no hold times, no phone trees, and no voicemail.

Will patients know they’re speaking with an assistant?

Yes. The experience is transparent and designed to be helpful, respectful, and easy to understand.

What can the assistant help patients with?

The assistant can:

  • Schedule new appointments
  • Reschedule or cancel existing appointments
  • Confirm appointment details

All actions happen in real time, just like speaking with the front desk.

What if a patient has a complex request?

If a request falls outside what the assistant is designed to handle, it’s routed appropriately so the office can follow up. Nothing gets stuck or lost.

Does this replace the front desk?

No. The assistant supports the front desk by handling access during after-hours or busy periods—so staff can focus on in-office patients and higher-touch needs.

How does this improve the patient experience?

Patients get:

  • Immediate answers
  • No waiting on hold
  • No phone tag
  • The ability to call after hours or on weekends

Admin Control & Oversight FAQs

Do we control what the assistant can do?

Yes. Practices define:

  • Which appointment types can be scheduled
  • Provider availability
  • When the assistant is active (after hours, busy times, or both)
  • What actions are allowed or restricted

Can we start small?

Absolutely. Most practices begin with after-hours coverage and expand only if and when they’re ready.

Can we see what the assistant says to patients?

Yes. Every interaction is logged and visible inside Solutionreach, giving full transparency into what was discussed and booked.

Is anything automated without our knowledge?

No. The assistant follows predefined rules and guardrails. It does not make independent decisions outside of what the practice allows.

What happens if something doesn’t look right?

Practices can review conversations, adjust rules, and refine workflows at any time.

Solutionreach’s AI-Powered Virtual Scheduling Assistant helps practices capture appointments that would otherwise be missed — improving patient access while supporting teams who deliver care.
