Quick Answer
A WhatsApp bot for doctors is an AI assistant connected to your clinic's WhatsApp number that automatically responds to patient messages, books appointments, sends reminders, and answers FAQs — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without any receptionist involvement.
What Can a WhatsApp Bot Do for a Clinic?
1. Answer common questions (timings, location, fees, services)
2. Book appointments automatically
3. Send appointment reminders
4. Collect patient name and reason for visit
5. Handle rescheduling and cancellations
6. Send post-appointment review requests
7. Forward complex queries to the doctor or receptionist
Why WhatsApp — Not an App, Not Email
Indian patients don't download clinic apps. Email open rates are under 20%. WhatsApp has a 95%+ open rate and 60%+ response rate. Patients already use WhatsApp — your bot meets them where they are.
How Dhanwantri (ConnectAI's Doctor Bot) is Different
Most WhatsApp bots are generic chatbots with rigid decision trees. Dhanwantri is an AI agent trained specifically on medical clinic workflows — it understands 'I want to see the skin doctor for a rash' not just 'Option 1: Book Appointment'.
How Much Does a WhatsApp Bot for Clinics Cost?
ConnectAI's Dhanwantri WhatsApp Bot starts at ₹1,999/month (min 3 months). Includes unlimited patient conversations, AI booking flow, reminders, and review request automation. No per-message costs.
