AI Phone & WhatsApp Agent for Medical Clinics & GPs
General practice runs on a small front-desk team absorbing a flood of refill requests, booking calls, and 'when will my results be back?' questions. Zepiva answers that line, captures the right details for the receptionist or the GP, and books into the right session type - so the clinic stops losing patients to a busy signal at 8 a.m.
The challenges medical clinics & gps face
Real problems these businesses deal with daily — and the gaps an AI agent can fill.
The morning call wall
When the lines open, everything hits at once: refills, fitting notes, 'can I be seen today?', and referrals. One or two receptionists cannot hold all of it, and every busy signal or long hold is a patient who phones back annoyed or not at all.
Refill requests that take four phone calls each
A patient requests a repeat prescription, the desk asks for the pharmacy, the pharmacist clarifies the dose, and the doctor reviews it - four touches for one routine task. The volume drowns the same-day list and the urgent work.
Results calls nobody wants to have twice
Every patient who had blood drawn rings days later to ask if it's back. Each one ties up the desk to check the in-box and then either reassure or promise a callback, and the same question is asked three times over three channels.
Empty slots and a stale cancellation list
When a gap opens, someone has to work the list and most patients who get calls don't answer. Slots go unfilled, same-day lists go stale, and urgent patients end up a week out while the doctor has a quiet afternoon.
How Zepiva fits into medical clinics & gps
Specific features mapped to the way your business actually works.
A phone line that never puts a patient on hold
Zepiva answers immediately, asks the structured questions your practice defines - duration of symptoms, fever, is it a refill or a booking - and routes to the right session or the right inbox. Anything that looks like a red flag is escalated to the clinical team, never held in automation.
WhatsApp refill capture and simple requests
Patients send their refill details, fitting-note requests, or a query about opening hours over WhatsApp, and Zepiva files them into your workflow with the right fields filled. The desk gets a clean, structured request instead of a garbled voicemail to transcribe.
Results and referral follow-up by email
Normal results and referral letters are emailed with a plain explanation and a clear next step. When a referral was made but never booked, the agent reaches out and closes one of the silent gaps in the patient pathway.
Session-aware booking and recall
Zepiva books into face-to-face, telephone, and nurse sessions based on the reason given, fills gaps when a routine slot cancels, and reaches the recall list for reviews, immunisations, and medication checks that are easy to put off.
A day in the life at a GP practice
The phones open at 8 a.m. and the clinic is already behind.
The first call is a repeat prescription; Zepiva captures the medication, pharmacy, and delivery preference and sends it to the refill inbox while the receptionist seats a patient at the desk.
A mother with a feverish child asks if she can be seen today; the agent checks same-day availability, books the slot, and flags 'fever + child' for the triage nurse.
By 10 the lab posts results; Zepiva emails the normal ones with a reassurance line and books follow-ups for the flagged ones at the GP's next available window.
At lunch two afternoon slots open from cancellations; the agent works the same-day list and both fill before the desk has caught up with the morning.
