What is

AnswerClinic is a specialized medical answering service founded by practicing physicians to address the critical communication challenges facing healthcare practices today. AnswerClinic was established by doctors who experienced firsthand the frustrations of missed patient calls, overwhelmed staff, and inadequate communication solutions that treated all medical calls with equal priority regardless of urgency.

Founded by Doctors Who Lived Your
Frustrations

Two doctors in consultation

Dr. Peter got tired of watching his own practice lose patients to missed calls and overwhelmed staff.

"We spent years dealing with generic answering services that didn't understand medical urgency. A chest pain call was treated the same as a prescription refill request. We knew there had to be a better way."
