“This is the future of scheduling. Patients want a seamless, mobile way to book appointments and Nimblr’s new self-scheduling functionality gives them that. Scheduling is quick and easy, unlike other online schedulers that can easily overwhelm and frustrate patients. It has decreased our incoming call volume significantly while increasing new patient visits all while syncing the data to our DrChrono EHR,” said Dr. Adam Siegel of Modern Foot & Ankle.

Yet our patients can interact and use natural language with Holly without ever knowing she’s an automated 24/7 system. It’s like magic,” said Dr. Nadeem Vaidya of Retina Orange County.
