Reception, at the deskReception books as always, keeping slots back.

One patient enquiry. The right appointment. A clear handover.

Answered from what you publish, booked into a real time.

The patient asks
“Hi, do you take new patients? What does a check-up cost?”
WhatsApp 21:14
Clinqly answers from your published fees
We do. A new patient check-up is £65 and takes about 30 minutes. Is this routine, or is something bothering you?
The right appointment, a real slot

Guided setup with Clinqly

We configure Clinqly around the way your practice already works.

Your initial guided setup session takes less than an hour.

Both options follow the same three steps

1Understand your practiceAppointment types · Fees · Dentists · Website widget · Approved information
2Configure how work movesAvailability · Booking rules · Qualification · Follow-up · Clinical handover
3Review and activateConfirm the diary · Validate the patient journey · Activate when ready

Does it answer the practice phone?

No. It does not take calls. Clinqly handles your website, WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook enquiries.

Does it book into our real diary?

Yes. It offers only times that exist against the dentist and appointment type you configure, and revalidates the slot before confirming. Patients also get a secure link to reschedule or cancel.

What happens with clinical questions?

They go to the practice. Clinqly does not diagnose, advise on treatment, or assess whether treatment is suitable.

Does this replace reception?

No. It supports reception by handling repetitive online enquiries using the practice information you provide, so your team can deal with the patients in front of them. Your team stays in control and can take over any conversation.
