WhatsApp bot for clinics in Visakhapatnam
Patients in Visakhapatnam already message clinics on WhatsApp to ask about OPD timings, the doctor's availability, consultation fees and directions. A BotSetu WhatsApp bot answers those questions 24/7 in Telugu, Hindi and English, books appointment slots, and sends the booking straight to your own WhatsApp so your front desk can confirm.
What it does for clinics in Visakhapatnam
- Answer OPD timings, doctor availability and consultation fees instantly, including on Sundays and late at night
- Book appointment slots and send each booking to the doctor or front desk on WhatsApp
- Share the clinic location, parking and landmark directions for areas like MVP Colony, Dwaraka Nagar, Siripuram
- Answer common pre-visit questions: fasting before tests, reports to bring, follow-up rules
- Reply in the language the patient writes in: Telugu, Hindi and English
- Hand the chat to your staff for anything medical; the bot does not give medical advice
