Is reception spending too much time chasing confirmations?

The problem: appointments that fall through

An empty chair affects the whole practice. Forgotten visits and late cancellations leave gaps that are hard to fill after staff and equipment have been prepared.

Manually calling or messaging every patient adds repetitive work to the day.

Missed appointments leave time and resources unused.

Late changes make it harder to organise the remaining appointments.

The solution: automatic WhatsApp reminders

Send a reminder before each appointment. Connect your calendar or add bookings in the app, then let patients confirm or cancel from the message.

Spend less time writing the same reminder for every appointment.

Give patients time to remember their visit and respond.

See appointment statuses update when patients confirm or cancel.

For dental practices

A reminder workflow that fits your business

Use automatic reminders for the appointments and follow-ups your team already manages.

Make better use of chair time

Give patients a chance to confirm or cancel before the appointment, while reception still has time to act.

  • Send reminders ahead of visits to help reduce forgotten appointments.

  • See cancellations and contact patients who may want an earlier slot.

  • Plan staff and equipment around a clearer appointment list.

Help patients arrive prepared

Include the practical details patients need before their visit. Keep clinical advice in your established care channels.

  • Add the time, address and general preparation notes agreed by your practice.

  • Remind patients to bring requested documents or previous records.

  • Use consistent wording with your practice name on every reminder.

Keep follow-up visits in view

Schedule reminders for the next appointment in a patient's care plan, including routine check-ups.

  • Remind patients before the time your team has reserved for them.

  • Create dated events for scheduled check-ups and hygiene appointments.

  • Track confirmation responses before the next visit.

Questions before you start

Can I use different appointment lengths?

Yes. Each booking service has its own name, duration, price and description, and available times are worked out for the service the patient picks.

Do patients need another app?

No. They receive the reminder in WhatsApp, and your booking page opens in their browser.

Do I need Google Calendar?

No. You can add appointments directly in RecordarApp. Google Calendar is optional, and spreadsheet import is available on Team and Business.
