No clinical advice
Anything clinical, unclear or sensitive is passed back to your team.
Physiotherapy reception cover
Reception cover for physiotherapy clinics when the phone rings at the wrong time.
Abby answers selected calls when your team is treating patients, stretched at the desk or unavailable, follows your agreed clinic rules, and sends a clear Call Brief after every call.
Built for physiotherapy clinics
Reception help for the calls that interrupt treatment or get missed.
Abby helps with the reception side of physiotherapy calls: booking requests, practical questions, messages and safe handback to your team when something needs clinical judgement.
New appointment enquiries
Rearrangement requests
Opening and location questions
Messages for the team
Selected calls first
Start with the calls your clinic wants covered, not everything at once.
Agreed rules only
Abby follows the answers and boundaries your clinic agrees with us.
Clear brief after every call
You can see what the caller wanted, what Abby did, and what needs action.
Why this matters
The phone often rings while the team is already treating.
Missed new enquiries
New appointment requests can be lost or delayed when nobody is free to answer.
Treatment interruption
Clinicians should not have to leave a patient to answer a routine call.
Busy front desk
One receptionist cannot always answer every call while helping people already in the clinic.
Out-of-hours contact
Callers still reach out when the clinic is closed and want a clear next step.
Where Abby fits first
Start with one clear call route.
Most clinics do not begin with every call. They begin with the gap that causes the most missed opportunities or interruption.
When Abby should answer
- Unanswered calls and new enquiry capture
- Busy-line or overflow calls
- Out-of-hours admin questions
- Lunch / busy-period cover
- Rearrangement or rebooking requests where permitted
What Abby can safely do
- Capture who called and what they wanted
- Use agreed admin answers only
- Help with booking where permitted
- Take a structured message where booking is not right
- Flag unclear or clinical questions for the team
Safety boundaries
Reception cover, not clinical advice.
Abby must not diagnose, judge urgency, advise on treatment suitability or replace professional judgement. Clinical judgement stays with the clinic.

7-Day Reception Cover Test
Test one clear call route before choosing a plan.
The safest first test is usually one repeatable gap, not every call at once.
The test can focus on unanswered calls, busy periods, after-hours calls, lunch cover, or another agreed call window relevant to your physiotherapy clinic.
Suggested first test
- Agree admin answers and handover wording
- Run a clinic test call first
- Start with agreed calls only
- Review Abby’s notes before expanding
- Use the Day 7 summary to choose the right cover
Your next step
