Easy to use for patients and your team

Getting new and existing patients to book online shouldn’t be stressful. Dental practices love our online appointment scheduling system due to its ease of use and personalized settings.

What our clients are saying

It’s amazing that patients don’t even have to call the office and they can book an appointment from a text or email. It saves so much time for the front desk. I think most patients would prefer to schedule online, rather than have to pick up the phone and call, so it’s a no brainer.

If a patient books online, won't they have a high no-show rate?

Many dental practice owners and staff have adopted the fear that patients who come from an online booking platform are more likely to no-show.

Recent studies have debunked this theory and have even proved that patients who come from online bookings are more qualified and less likely to no-show or cancel at the last minute.

A 2019 study conducted by the Journal of Medical Systems found that practices using an online booking system saw, on average, their no-show rates plummet from 25% to 11%!

What if we don't have many schedule openings? What will patients think?

Don’t be too concerned about the fact that, on occasion, your schedule could be sparse, and patients will see that when booking online.

Patients typically do not look too far in advance when booking an appointment. Studies show that 40% of all appointments made online are for the same or the following day.

Regardless, if your office wants to control what your patients see, a system like Yapi Online Scheduling will give you the tools to customize how your appointment book is presented to any patient who books online and how far in advance you allow bookings.

We might not take a patient's insurance. If they book online, won't that be a waste of time?

Nothing would be more frustrating for a patient than booking an appointment online, only to find that you don’t take their insurance at the end of the process.

Sadly, this is where many dental online booking systems falter. Many don’t consider the importance of verifying a patient’s insurance before the booking process.

This is where Yapi Online Scheduling stands out. If you choose, our online scheduling software can require patients to provide accepted insurance before finalizing their appointment, delivering a better experience for patients and staff.
