WhatsApp appointment reminders for Kenyan clinics

Fewer empty chairs.

Know who's coming before the day starts.

The day before every appointment, your patients get a WhatsApp reminder from your clinic. One tap confirms, and your appointment sheet updates by itself.

How many patients confirmed last week?

If reminders go out by hand, or not at all, nobody at the desk can answer that. With us, your sheet can: who was reminded, who confirmed, and when.

How it works

  1. The patient books, at your desk or online. The appointment goes into your clinic's sheet.
  2. At 9:00 the day before, they get a WhatsApp message from your clinic: their name, date and time, with Confirm and Reschedule buttons.
  3. They tap once. The sheet updates by itself. Reception only phones the few who asked to reschedule or haven't replied.

Built for dental and aesthetic clinics. It works the same anywhere a missed appointment is lost income: optical, physio, labs, vets, salons and spas.

Try it yourself

See it working on your own phone.

Lakeview Dental Care is a clinic we made up to show you the system. Book an appointment there with your own number, on any day from the day after tomorrow. The day before it, you'll get a real WhatsApp reminder. Tap Confirm and see exactly what your patients would see.

Lakeview isn't a real clinic. Your name and number are used only for your test booking and its reminder.

What your clinic gets

Fewer missed appointments.

Every patient gets a reminder the day before, every time, so your receptionist can focus on the patients in front of them.

A day you can plan.

By morning you know who has confirmed, so an empty slot can go to someone else.

One message every morning.

How many are due, reminded and confirmed, and whether anything needs attention.

It runs by itself, every day.

Weekends and holidays included, whether or not anyone is at the desk.

Your name, your number.

Messages come from your clinic's own WhatsApp number, under your clinic's name.

Nothing complicated for reception.

A simple sheet, shown to your receptionist in half an hour.

Optional

A website your patients can book from.

We build a simple, fast site with your services, prices, opening hours and how to find you. Patients can only pick times when you're open. Every online booking goes straight into your sheet and gets the same reminder.

The Lakeview demo page is built exactly this way.

Questions owners ask

What does my clinic have to do?

Share a phone number for your clinic's WhatsApp (a new line works best) and approve the name your patients will see. Your receptionist adds appointments to the sheet, and patients can also book online. We take care of everything else, including half an hour of training for your receptionist.

Whose number do patients see?

Your clinic's own number, under your clinic's name. Patients see you, not us.

What about patient data?

Names and numbers stay in your own sheet. We only message patients who agreed to reminders, and we remove anyone who asks. Nothing is sold or shared. Details are on our privacy page.

What if something goes wrong?

Every morning you get a message confirming it ran and showing any errors. We see the same message and fix problems the same day. Every appointment stays in your sheet, so reception can still phone as before.

What about patients without WhatsApp?

The message can't reach them, so they won't confirm. The morning message counts them under "no answer", and reception phones them as usual.

How long until we're live?

Usually one to two weeks: a few days to set up your clinic's number and get the message wording approved by WhatsApp, then a few days testing with your staff before patients are messaged.

Ready when you are.
