AI Receptionist · Physical Therapy

Your front desk for recall and reactivation, on autopilot

FrontDesk answers, schedules, and follows up for physical therapy clinics automatically — freeing your team to focus on the patients in front of them.

The Problem

Why physical therapy clinics need recall & reactivation

These challenges cost clinics thousands in lost revenue every month.

01

Patients drop off mid-plan

Feeling 80% better, a patient quits early — risking reinjury and leaving authorized visits and outcomes on the table.

02

Past patients forget you for new issues

When a former patient tweaks a different joint months later, they may not think to call you unless you’ve stayed in touch.

03

Reactivation outreach never happens

Clinicians are treating; the front desk is scheduling. Re-engaging lapsed patients consistently is nobody’s job.

The Solution

How FrontDesk handles recall & reactivation

AI-powered recall & reactivation built specifically for physical therapy clinics.

01

patient calls your clinic

Whether during business hours or at midnight, the AI answers instantly and begins the recall & reactivation process.

02

AI handles the process

Through natural conversation, the AI manages every step of recall & reactivation specific to your clinic's protocols.

03

session booked or action taken

The process completes with a booked session, captured information, or appropriate routing - all in under 2 minutes.

04

Your team is notified

Staff gets instant notifications with full context, so they can follow up on anything that needs personal attention.

In their words

What physical therapy patients ask during recall & reactivation calls

PT patients often stop coming before they’ve fully recovered — they feel better, life gets busy, and the plan of care stalls. Reactivation re-engages them to finish treatment or address a new issue, and the AI rebooks the evaluation or session without phone tag.

I stopped coming but I’m still having pain — can I restart?

Do I need a new referral to come back?

Can I pick up where I left off in my plan?

I have a new injury — can I be evaluated?
