Let acne patients book the right visit — without calling.
Patients searching for help with acne want to book, not wait on hold. Chatref identifies what they need and gets them into the right appointment slot in minutes.
Why it matters
The problem this solves.
The challenge
Acne patients searching online are ready to book — but most practice websites require a phone call, and many give up before
What it costs
Patients who cannot self-book in the moment book with a practice that lets them — often a telehealth provider with a faster flow.
The Chatref way
Chatref engages acne visitors, identifies whether they need a first visit or a follow-up, and routes them to the right booking
The Chatref solution
How Chatref books acne appointments online.
A patient searching for an acne dermatologist lands on the practice site. Chatref asks whether they are a new or returning patient, what they want to address, and routes them to the correct booking flow — new patient exam or follow-up — without a phone call.

Dermatology practices converting acne visitors into booked appointments.
How practices use Chatref to capture acne booking intent the moment it appears on their website.
Acne patients used to call, hit the voicemail, and book somewhere else. Now Chatref captures them on the site and routes them to the right appointment type immediately.
Most acne patients are new patients. Chatref identifies that immediately and sends them straight to the new patient flow — no confusion.
We see more first-time acne visits now because patients can book at midnight if that is when they decide. Chatref is always there.
