Chatbot for Your Practice Website

Provide patients with answers to their basic health questions

“How do I take my inhaler?” “What is Mohs Surgery?” “How long will it take my acne to get better?”  “What are biologics?”  “Are there any treatments for Parkinson’s Disease?”

 

Key Features

  • Specialty-specific – Your chatbot provides answers only to questions relevant to your specialty. For instance, the dermatology chatbot provides answers to questions about acne, but not epilepsy.
  • Trusted sources – Answers are generated by referencing ONLY established, patient-oriented resources, such as the CDC and NIH.
  • Free – The basic service is available in 15+ medical specialties for no cost.
