New patient inquiry call
When to use: Use this when a prospective patient calls the practice for the first time.
Open (warm and private)
Thanks for calling practice name, this is your name. I would love to help. May I get your name?
Understand the need
- What made you reach out today, patient name?
- Are you in any discomfort right now, or is this more of a checkup?
- Have you been to a dentist recently?
Shift from price to goal
Many people ask about cost first, which is fair. What I would love to do is get you in so the dentist can see what you actually need, and then we can talk about options and cost with real information.
Book the visit
I have appointment time open. Shall I hold that for you? The next step is next step, and we will send everything you need beforehand.
