AI Appointment Receptionist for Physical Therapists

PT clinics field calls from patients booking evaluations and follow-up visits. An AI receptionist answers those calls and texts, explains your visit types with their lengths, shares which therapists specialize in what, checks availability, and books the visit. Referrals, insurance authorizations, and clinical questions stay with your staff.

An AI receptionist for physical therapists — a voice agent that answers calls and texts and books appointments through natural conversation — lists your services, gives service details, shares staff and business information, and checks live availability before booking. Your team focuses on clients, not the phone. Powered by virtual assistant technology.

Common Phone Challenges for Physical Therapists

✕An orthopedic surgeon sending over a post-surgical ACL reconstruction referral that needs to be seen within 72 hours, but the fax sits unprocessed because every therapist is treating patients back-to-back
✕New referral intake requiring collection of the physician's prescription, ICD-10 diagnosis codes, surgery date, weight-bearing status, and precautions before the first evaluation can be scheduled
✕Patients confused about how many visits their insurance authorizes, what their per-visit copay is, and whether they need re-authorization after the initial evaluation
✕A patient recovering from rotator cuff repair needing three visits per week for six weeks -- 18 appointments that must be scheduled around work, childcare, and other patients' recurring slots
✕Patients discharged from active care who skip their recommended 6-week and 12-week follow-up evaluations because no one contacts them to schedule, leading to preventable re-injuries
