SMS Health Reminders

Health reminders keep your patients and your practice healthy. With VetTools SMS Health Reminders, you can deliver friendly and compelling text message health reminders right to your clients’ phones, where they’ll be read quickly.

Features include:

  • Linked appointment request form is pre-filled out with client and patient info so it’s a cinch to submit
  • Customizable messages sent automatically during typical waking hours in your time zone
  • Advanced settings to let you decide which reminders codes to send (or not)
  • Detailed recipient and response reporting
In a world where digital communication is king and attention spans notoriously short, pet health reminders must convey the needed information in a brief but compelling manner, while also offering ways to immediately act. VetTools SMS Health Reminders have got you covered on all accounts!

Appointment Communications (confirmations, follow-ups, surveys, reviews, and perceptions) and individual messages sent by you to clients are included with your VetTools subscription. There is no extra charge for these types of text messages.

Use VetTools Mass SMS Announcements to send high priority mass announcements to your clients via text message, sure to be seen and read quickly by your clients right on their phones.

Features include:

  • Pre-written message templates (or create your own!)
  • Multiple list recipient options to suit your message perfectly
  • Messages sent during typical waking hours in your time zone
  • Ability to attach an image to your message
  • Dynamic cost calculations so you’ll always know the projected cost for your mass announcement

Phone Type Validation

People sure have a LOT of phone numbers nowadays, don’t they?

Cell, work numbers, landline, VoIP numbers, just to name a few. So how do you make sure your very important text messages are actually being sent to text-capable numbers? Phone Type Validation is your key to cracking the code and creating seamless messaging between you and your clients.

Here's how it works:

With VetTools Phone Type Validation, we run your clients’ phone numbers through a database which determines if a number is a landline, VoIP, or mobile, and then identify and treat them appropriately in your VetTools platform.

With Phone Type Validation, your very important text messages will only be sent to text-capable numbers and you’ll be making the most of your clients’ available text-friendly numbers!
