Your practice WhatsApp, answered and booked

Clero answers the messages patients send to your practice WhatsApp. It checks who they are, then books, moves or cancels their appointment without leaving the chat.

24/7 replies on the WhatsApp number your patients already message

What is a WhatsApp receptionist?

A WhatsApp receptionist answers the messages patients send to your practice on WhatsApp. Many patients would rather type than ring, and those messages often wait until someone on the desk has a spare minute.

Clero replies in your practice's name, answers questions from your practice information, and confirms who the patient is before it touches their records. It then handles the booking inside the conversation, and your team can read along or take over in the inbox.

  • 24/7

    Always replying

    Messages sent in the evening and at the weekend get an answer, not just a read receipt.

  • 3

    Identity checks

    Name, date of birth and the mobile number on the record are checked before an existing appointment is changed.

  • 1

    Shared inbox

    Every conversation sits in your dashboard, where the team can follow it or step in.

How it works

How WhatsApp booking works

Four steps, from the first message to the diary being up to date.

  1. 01

    A patient messages your practice

    They use the WhatsApp number on your website, your Google profile or your appointment messages.

  2. 02

    Clero replies and checks who it is

    It answers questions from your practice information, and confirms the patient's details before looking at their appointments.

  3. 03

    Booked, moved or cancelled in the chat

    Clero offers real times from your practice management system and confirms the change in the conversation.

  4. 04

    Your team stays in control

    Staff can take over any conversation from the inbox, and anything Clero cannot handle is flagged for them.

What Clero handles on WhatsApp

  • Payment links in the chat

    Where your practice takes deposits, the payment link can be sent on WhatsApp, with a text message as the fallback.

  • Keep the WhatsApp Business app

    Practices on the WhatsApp Business app can keep replying from their phone, and those replies show in the same inbox.

  • All day or after hours

    Clero can answer every message, or only the ones that arrive once the practice has closed.

Built for your practice

Tailored to your practice, not off the shelf

Every practice runs differently. Before Clero speaks to a single patient, we set it up around yours, and the only thing we measure ourselves on is more patients and more revenue for your practice.

  1. 01

    We learn how your practice runs

    Your treatments, clinicians, prices, opening hours, and how your front desk handles each kind of call and message.

  2. 02

    We set Clero up to match

    Which appointments it books, when it hands over to your team, and what it says about prices and emergencies, all to your rules.

  3. 03

    We keep tuning it after go-live

    We review conversations and adjust as your practice changes, measured against one goal: more patients and more revenue for you.
