The problem
Traditional answering services
take messages. Lyngo takes action
Most medical answering services use operators reading from scripts. They take a message and add it to your callback list. By the time you return the call, 8 out of 10 patients have already booked with another clinic.
Traditional answering service
- Takes a message, adds to callback list
- Generic scripts, no clinic context
- Can't access your calendar or book
- Per-minute pricing adds up fast
Lyngo AI answering service
- Books appointments in real time
- Trained on your specific clinic
- Connected to Cliniko, Nookal, PracSuite
- Predictable monthly pricing from $139/mo
What Lyngo handles
More than a message pad.
A full phone answering service
Trained on your clinic, connected to your calendar, answering every call with the context a patient expects.
Answers every call instantly
No hold music, no voicemail, no busy signals. Every patient call is picked up on the first ring by an AI assistant trained on your clinic.
Books appointments in real time
Reads your live calendar, finds the right slot, and books with the right practitioner. No double-bookings. No manual follow-up.
Answers patient enquiries
Fees, health fund coverage, what to bring, cancellation policy, parking. Every question answered accurately from your clinic's own information.
Manages reschedules and cancellations
A patient calls to move their Thursday appointment. Lyngo cancels the old slot, books the new one, and opens the gap for someone else.
Escalates urgent calls to your team
Clinical questions, emergencies, and sensitive situations are transferred to staff or flagged with an urgent notification. Nothing gets missed.
Takes messages and sends notifications
When a call needs a human, Lyngo takes a detailed message and sends it to your team via email or SMS. No information lost, no callbacks missed.
In practice
