Automated Text Apointment Reminders That Reduce No-Shows & Boost Practice Efficiency
What Are Text Appointment Reminders?
Text appointment reminders are automated messages sent to patients via SMS or email to remind them of upcoming visits. These reminders can include appointment date, time, location, and options to confirm, cancel, or reschedule — all without your staff making a phone call.
Benefits of Text Appointment Reminders
Reduce No-Shows
Automated reminders help patients remember their appointments, keeping schedules full and reducing lost revenue.
Improve Patient Communication
Notifications are delivered directly to patients’ most-used communication channels — their phones.
Increased Operational Efficiency
Save administrative hours previously spent on phone calls and rescheduling.
Boost Patient Satisfaction
Patients appreciate reminders that reduce stress and help them stay on track with care.
