Good morning, Clearwell Osteopathy - how can I help?
👤
Hi, my lower back's seized up - can I see an osteopath this week?
CO
Sorry to hear that. I can book you a new patient assessment - are you self-paying, or using insurance like Bupa?
👤
Self-pay is fine.
CO
Great - I've got Wednesday at 5:30 or Thursday 9am. I'll book that straight into Cliniko now.

Why osteopaths choose RingDesk

Every missed call is a patient
treated at the next clinic

When you're hands-on in a session, the phone still rings - and a patient in pain who can't get through simply books at the clinic down the road. RingDesk makes sure they book with you.

🤲

Catches calls mid-session

When you can't break away from a patient, RingDesk answers immediately and books the appointment before the caller tries elsewhere.

🤖

Books into Cliniko automatically

It checks your real availability, matches or creates the patient and books the appointment on the call - end to end, with no evening admin and no double entry.

🩺

Insurance handled cleanly

It asks self-pay or insured, captures the insurer and authorisation code, and flags pre-auth - so bookings arrive ready to confirm.

💷

ROI in the first course of treatment

One new patient captured from a missed call usually covers more than a month of RingDesk.

Questions

Common questions

Do I need a new phone number, or can I keep my clinic’s existing one?

You keep your existing clinic number. You simply set conditional call forwarding so RingDesk answers when your line is busy or unanswered, so patients carry on calling the same number.

Does it really book appointments automatically?

Yes. With Cliniko connected, RingDesk checks your live availability, matches or creates the patient, and books the appointment during the call - fully automated, end to end. On other systems (Jane, TM3, PPS, Nookal) it captures the booking in full and sends it to your team to enter, with an instant email and SMS.

What sorts of calls can RingDesk handle for an osteopathy clinic?

It books new patient assessments, back and neck pain, sports-injury, cranial, paediatric and pregnancy appointments, answers session pricing, insurance and self-referral questions, and captures the insurer and authorisation code - the everyday reasons patients ring the clinic.

Does it handle insurance and self-pay?

Yes. It asks whether the patient is self-paying or insured, confirms the insurers you work with (Bupa, AXA, Aviva, Vitality), explains that pre-authorisation is usually needed, and captures the authorisation code so the booking arrives ready to confirm.

What happens if someone calls with red-flag symptoms?

You set the rules. Red flags such as sudden severe back pain with saddle-area numbness, loss of bladder or bowel control, or new leg weakness are treated as urgent - the agent advises contacting the GP urgently or attending A&E and takes the caller’s details. It never diagnoses.

How much does it cost and is there a free trial?

Plans start at £49 a month, with busier clinics on Standard at £99 a month for 750 minutes, plus an Essential plan at £20/month (prices ex-VAT). Every plan includes a 14-day free trial - card required to start, but nothing is charged until it ends.

Still relying on voicemail?

Voicemail doesn’t catch missed calls — it loses them

Voicemail only captures the few patients who bother to leave a message. Most just hang up and go to the next clinic. RingDesk answers every call live — so you keep the ones voicemail quietly loses.
