Dental Clinics: Create Attractive Appointment Scheduling Sites

Dental Clinics: Create Attractive Appointment Scheduling Sites

There used to be a time where medical practitioners including dentists used to be least bothered with appointment scheduling sites as they used to be very less in numbers.

Also, there were not many options for customers to pick their dentists in several places as well.
This is not the case today. With the rise of internet in the last two decades, customers started to look for information on the internet for almost everything that you need.

Therefore, you need to offer a very good online experience to your customers so that they are impressed from the very start and that helps you convert some prospective clients into your patients.

This can be done by having an amazing website and an appointment scheduling site to further facilitate your online presence.



In this guide, we will help you make your own appointment scheduling site and use it as a tool to market your business.


Do you really need an attractive appointment scheduling site for your company?

You will know in the healthcare industry that having an excellent online presence will improve your position in your market among your competitors.

In addition, this will also be put in a good position so that new patients prefer to take advantage of your services instead of others.

This is because most individuals do not gamble on price when it comes to selecting healthcare. They know about that already as for your existing customers. As for the new people, how can they realize that your services are as awesome as you claim?

One way to do that is to provide a well-built web presence that will inspire the customer in such a direction that he or she thinks your service may be great as you say. The more you manage so, the more your future customer will trust you in what you say. Another measure you may consider is getting positive ratings, but with emerging clinics that do not have sufficient public feedback, it is challenging to get across.

An enticing appointment scheduling site is an important part of this. It lets you provide high quality message about your business’ services with minimum effort and expense from your hand.

You need to remain at the top of your game in today's environment where there is lots of competition to ensure you stay on top of the market. To do this, you need to make sure that your company always has the best appointment scheduling site possible.


Certain rules and guidelines need to be followed while doing this. But why?

For this guide, our goal is to build the best scheduling page you can make for yourself. To do that, you ought to obey a set of rules so that your appointment scheduling site does a lot more than just reflect the industry.

Every industry has some visual characteristics that are essential to demonstrate the industry's look when it comes to design.

For starters, on their sites, businesses in the agriculture industry tend to go for the color green on their color scheme in almost everything that they have online. This helps bring the feeling of being around plants when people view their web pages, which helps these businesses keep the view hooked on to the page.

For most instances, the consumers are expected to vote for such a company rather than another, as they are much more inclined to accept the former's company with what they have observed online.

It is therefore important that you follow those rules which are widely used in your industry to ensure that your online presence helps you remain above the competition.

This article should give you an outline of what you need to learn while developing your scheduling page for appointments in your field. If you need an in-depth guide that covers every phase of the process, then we suggest that you go through this guide before moving forward. Be it Logistics, Sports, General Clinics or any other industry for that matter, having an attractive and good-looking appointment scheduling website can only work wonders for your business.

This guide will provide an overview of what you need to know while designing your appointment scheduling site in this industry. If you need an in-depth guide covering every step of the process, we have a guide made for that very purpose.


All right, so, how should you go about making an appointment scheduling site?

An appointment scheduling site that has a really pleasing and elegant user experience can impress the customers who view it.



If you succeed in doing this right then this will help you catch the customer's attention and keep him on the page for much longer periods they usually do.

The website should also have all the customer needs to learn about when they book a clinic appointment.
You can create a perfect scheduling page with the correct mix of color, backdrop and text, which you can use to highlight your business. This will help you win the consumer trust which, in effect, will promote your company.


The best place to start is your background image.

When your consumer is on your scheduling list, your background picture sets the tone for your business. Therefore, one of the most important aspects of your page to which you need to pay attention is this as well.

Now let us think how your page's picture will look like. You will like the page to offer a sense of hospitality and support like you will normally get in a hospital as you typically look at every website that is in the healthcare sector. You ought to use the shades that you usually use in a hospital to achieve so.

Which are the shades of environments like these that you use most of the time? Most of them are brown, teal, light blue, mint green, purple and other popular colors.

For so long, those colors have been with the healthcare industry that people associate them with a clinic or hospital almost immediately. From these, you may choose the color scheme you want to use for your article. It refers both to your background picture and to certain items on your scheduling list.

When you have the colors in mind, we recommend that you select a photo from your appointment scheduling site for your background image which integrates these colors.

Keep in mind that on top of your background picture there may be other components, so try to choose one that does not have too much going on in the picture. A clear and elegant picture is always the perfect option for your backdrop, because it complements everything else on your scheduling page well.

If you have just started your company or you cannot find good images, do not worry. There are several websites on which you may either buy a picture or access one for free, for which the procedure is described in depth on the guide listed at the beginning of this article.

Although solid colors are indeed a choice for the backdrop, we will strongly advocate against it because it looks very poorly put together and does not display the commitment and consistency across the scheduling site that you have in your services.

If you want to go for a picture, one more aspect you need to hold in mind is that you need to choose a picture where there are not many boundary issues.

That is because the establishment's logo and name should show at the top left corner of the schedule screen, which may not be noticeable because there is a lot going on in that section of the background picture behind it.
If you have trouble getting your choice of color scheme, check out some popular healthcare center websites to get some inspiration.

Below are also some of our suggestions on the same:



You may use the hex value given below to get the same color from above when selecting colors from these recommendations.


What about the other things on your site, then?

The color scheme you selected earlier when picking your backdrop picture would be the one you will be using on other sections of your scheduling page for appointment.

We do it so that your background picture and the elements on your scheduling page together function as a part of a common language of design. This also gives an appealing and full look to your appointment scheduling site.

In the case of the text, to bring uniformity to the page, it is best to go with the same color you had applied for the button. If the background image is crippling the text with this color, you should either go for black or white, depending on the situation. To achieve so, use a trial and error approach and select the color to help the user interpret the text very quickly.

We suggest that you test the live overview of your website with the improvements applied by clicking on the Go To button at the very bottom of the Workspace Settings tab each update you update on your appointment scheduling site.

In short, you will have a clear and beautiful backdrop on your appointment scheduling site and a nice color on your buttons with the correct text color on top of it. It should give the consumers a rather health care-like allure, right from the screen of their computer.


The most important element undoubtedly is the text on your page.

There are two lines above the buttons on your site, where you can give any text that you want.

There are two options to utilize these text fields: either you can use this section to market the business employing certain words to do so, or you can use it to inform patients with everything they need to learn before making a clinic appointment.

This option is yours to determine but ensure you make good use of the area. If you feel the space given for text is not sufficient for you, you can always edit the space between the buttons and the page footer to write what you need. Just ensure sure the text on the picture is legible enough for the user to interpret clearly should you want to do so.


Is that everything that you need to do? Not quite!

After you have designed the scheduling page for the appointment, we highly recommend that you show others your page and ask for their opinions.

Though others' perspectives often point out issues you may have overlooked, they also often include feedback for your work that can further enhance your website.

Be sure you get multiple opinions from those you know, such as bosses, colleagues and relatives, and incorporate certain changes you believe would improve your appointment scheduling site.

You should also start asking inputs from your clients regarding the same from whom you can take in feedback that can be used to develop your scheduling website further.

To choose which email to send to the contacts, there are conditions, which divert contacts based on their company type and their company size. There was a subsection of this workflow, where company size wasn't selected correctly, and some contacts have been sent down the wrong path and received the wrong email. The workflow contains a reminder loop and a further series of emails.
