Never Miss a Patient Call Again: How Tradie Pal Keeps Your Book Full

With a patient in the room? Don't let the phone decide who gets seen.

21-day free trial Set up in minutes From A$35/month

A practice runs on its appointment book, and the appointment book runs on the phone. But the front desk is also checking people in, taking payments, chasing results and answering the person standing right there — so calls ring out at exactly the times they matter most. A patient who reaches voicemail rarely leaves one. They call the next practice on the list.

The usual fix is more reception hours, which is a real salary against an unpredictable call volume. The other option is letting the phone go, and quietly losing the new patients who were trying to become regulars.

What if you never had to worry about a missed call again?

Built for clinics & healthcare

  • Answer every call, text and WhatsApp message — 24/7, including evenings and weekends when people finally get a moment to ring.
  • Ask the questions your practice asks: new or existing patient, which practitioner, preferred days and times, and how soon they need to be seen.
  • Answer the routine questions from your own website — opening hours, where to park, what to bring, whether you bulk bill.
  • Book and reschedule appointments straight into your calendar, and put urgent calls through to you on the rules you set.
  • Send you an instant SMS after every call with the patient's details, what they need and a link to the recording.

Here’s how it works

  1. 01

    A patient calls or texts

    No ringing out while the front desk is with someone. Your receptionist answers immediately, in the greeting you have chosen.

  2. 02

    It asks what your practice needs to know

    New or existing patient, which practitioner, preferred time, and how urgent it is — the same questions your reception team would ask.

  3. 03

    It books, reschedules, or escalates

    Routine bookings go straight into the calendar. Anything you have flagged as urgent comes through to you or to a nominated number instead.

  4. 04

    You get the summary

    An SMS lands with the caller's name, number, what they wanted and a link to the recording, so nothing depends on someone remembering to write it down.

Why clinics & healthcare choose Tradie Pal

  • The after-hours calls you never hear

    Most people ring a clinic when they are not at work. Your receptionist is answering at 7pm and on Sunday morning, which is when a good share of new patients are looking.

  • Takes load off the front desk

    The person at the counter stops choosing between the patient in front of them and the phone, because the phone is already handled.

  • The same calm greeting, every time

    No rushed answer on the fourth ring. Every caller gets the same professional greeting, whether it is Tuesday lunchtime or a public holiday.

  • Speaks your patients' languages

    Fluent in more than a dozen languages, so a patient who is more comfortable in their own can still book properly.

  • Set up in minutes

    Use the number we give you as your main practice line, or forward unanswered calls from the one on your door. No new system for your staff to learn.
