The Challenge
Bright Smile Dental, a mid-sized practice in Birmingham, was struggling with a common problem: their front desk staff couldn't keep up with call volume during peak hours.
Key pain points:
- ⬤45% of calls going to voicemail during busy periods
- ⬤Patients booking elsewhere due to unanswered calls
- ⬤Staff overwhelmed juggling in-person patients and phone calls
The Solution
Bright Smile implemented a HiBotics AI receptionist configured specifically for dental practices.
