In a bustling clinic with multiple practitioners, managing patient interactions efficiently is paramount. Larger healthcare practices require robust systems to ensure that every patient feels valued while maintaining optimal operational flow. Implementing a virtual receptionist like Auto Attend is key to achieving this balance and driving your clinic's success.
