Great care.
Too many loose ends.

The patient journey starts before the chair. That is where coordination can make room for your people.

The unanswered call.

Reception is already with a patient, so the phone goes to nobody.

The scattered enquiry.

Website, phone and social do not share the same context.

The forgotten follow-up.

The next contact has no clear owner and quietly slips.

See who does what.
And what happens next.

Choose a role to explore the problem it solves, the work Stella coordinates around it, and the next step your team can see.

  3. Request captured · reception informed

Eight configurable roles, one coordinated journey. Your team approves content, contact rules and exceptions; clinicians own treatment decisions.

Six moments where
clinics lose capacity.

Each one is a configured workflow with a trigger, a coordinated action and a visible outcome.

Dental clinics

Give missed calls a next step.

Trigger
A patient calls while reception is helping someone at the desk.
Stella coordinates
A configured voice workflow captures the enquiry and contact preference, answers approved routine questions, and creates a callback or booking request.
Outcome
Reception receives the request and its context instead of starting again.
Dental clinics

Turn an enquiry into an appointment.

Trigger
Someone asks for a dental consultation after closing time.
Stella coordinates
Stella captures their preferred time and coordinates availability through a supported booking system. If a staff decision is needed, the request stays pending.
Outcome
The patient gets a clear confirmation or a clear next step.
Dental clinics

Keep appointment changes connected.

Trigger
A patient needs to move an existing appointment.
Stella coordinates
The configured workflow follows your verification and scheduling rules, checks supported availability and coordinates the change.
Outcome
Staff can see the updated request and any unresolved exception.
Dental clinics

Make the next visit easier to remember.

Trigger
A confirmed consultation is approaching.
Stella coordinates
Send an approved reminder through configured channels, with a clear way to confirm or request a change.
Outcome
The team can distinguish confirmed visits from appointments needing attention.
Dental clinics

Give follow-ups an owner.

Trigger
An enquiry is still awaiting a reply, or a staff-approved recall is due.
Stella coordinates
Schedule follow-ups using the clinic’s timing, consent preferences and approved wording. Pause when the patient replies or staff take over.
Outcome
The front desk sees what is due, completed or waiting for a person.
Dental clinics

Bring your clinical team in with context.

Trigger
The patient asks whether a treatment is suitable for them.
Stella coordinates
Route the question and conversation history to clinic staff rather than generating a treatment decision.
Outcome
A qualified person owns the clinical answer and the next step.
