Voicemail Greetings for Optometrists

What matters for optometrists

01

Sudden vision changes are urgent

Sudden vision loss, flashes and new floaters or an eye injury should not wait for a callback. The greeting sends these callers to the emergency room.

02

Vision plan details up front

Many patients use a vision plan. Ask them to have their member ID ready; your front desk can check benefits before the visit.

03

Order status calls

Glasses and contacts take days to arrive. Tell callers how you notify them, by text or call, and many will not need to call again.

04

Back-to-school exams

Late summer brings children’s exams. A seasonal note in the greeting or on hold fills those weeks early.

Built by phone-audio professionals

This generator comes out of more than 20 years in a recording studio. We built in what makes a greeting work on the phone: clear pronunciation, sensible pauses and music that never covers the voice. Questions? Andreas Brenner and Tim Stein will help you personally.

Questions

Should the greeting give advice on eye symptoms?

Only one clear instruction: sudden vision changes or injuries go to the emergency room. Leave all other questions for the doctor.

Should we split optical and medical calls?

Yes, if you have an optical shop. A separate option keeps order questions away from the exam schedule.

What should patients have ready?

Name, date of birth and vision plan member ID. That is enough to check benefits and book.
