Pacific Coast Dermatology & Wellness Center is a boutique practice offering both medical dermatology and cosmetic services. For a practice of this size, every missed call and unfilled slot has an outsized impact on revenue and provider utilization.
The front desk team was stretched thin — juggling inbound calls, appointment scheduling, patient questions, and administrative tasks during business hours. After hours, calls went unanswered entirely. Patients who couldn't get through would either try again later, book elsewhere, or simply drop off. The practice needed a way to extend its availability without adding headcount, while maintaining the personal, high-quality experience their patients expected.
Pacific Coast Dermatology deployed Parakeet Health's conversational AI agents to handle inbound patient interactions 24/7/365. The AI agent was integrated directly with the practice's EHR and scheduling system, enabling it to book, reschedule, and cancel appointments in real time — and answer common patient questions about insurance, prep, locations, hours, and policies.
The agent was customized to reflect the practice's voice, scheduling rules, and provider preferences. For the patient, the experience felt seamless — a natural conversation that resolved their need in a single interaction, whether they called at 2 PM or 2 AM.
When your AI partner is paid for performance, results follow. Parakeet Health's pay-for-performance model means you only pay for booked appointments, resolved interactions, and call center time saved. No software seats. No vanity metrics.
