The front desk phone is ringing. Lorela picks it up.
Your staff are dealing with patients at the desk, and the phone is one more line. Lorela is an AI assistant for medical and dental offices: she takes the calls you can't get to, notes the problem described or the request for an appointment, and sends you a summary by email or in the app.

How it works
1
Set up forwarding once
Dial a short code on your phone's keypad and the calls you don't answer go to the Lorela number. Your office's number stays the same.
2
Your phone still rings first
You take calls first. Lorela steps in when there's a line at the desk and nobody can get to the phone.

What she handles for you
Acute tooth pain
Records the symptoms the patient describes and can flag urgency in the summary. Assessing the condition and the next step stay with you.
A new patient
Finds out what the patient is coming in for and takes a contact. You add them to your records when you have a free moment.
Changing an appointment
Notes the request to move or cancel an appointment. You change the calendar and confirm it with the patient.
A call after hours
Takes calls after closing time too, when people most often remember they need to book. In the morning the requests are lined up in your summaries.
7 days free, then $19 a month. Less than one lost job costs. Your plan has a monthly limit of call minutes. Once it is used up, Lorela takes a short message instead.
Frequently asked questions
How does she pass on a message about acute symptoms?
She records the symptoms the patient describes and can mark them as urgent in the summary. How serious it is and what to do next is for you to judge; Lorela is not an emergency service and cannot call 911.
Are you taking new patients - does Lorela handle that herself?
She collects the basic details and a contact and puts them in the summary - whether you accept the patient stays your decision. Lorela doesn't add any patient to your records herself.
What about sensitive health information from the call?
Only you get the summary. Call transcripts are stored in our database in Frankfurt and deleted after a year; we never sell them. You'll find the whole path of a call at lorela.ai/bezpecnost.
