What Janine does for a veterinary practice

Safety first

Before anything else on an urgent call, Janine says the safety line for your trade:

A real call: Janine as “Meadowbrook Veterinary Practice”

From our script test suite, September 2026. The caller’s lines were played by a scripted tester; every line from Janine is exactly what she generated. Outcome: she booked the job. Quality score 5 of 5 from the same grader that scores every live call.

JanineMeadowbrook Veterinary Practice, Janine speaking — how can I help?
CallerHi, I'd like to book in for a routine appointment next week if you've got anything available. It's just a standard check-up for my pet.
JanineRight, what sort of pet is it?
CallerIt's a dog, actually. Just needs a general once-over really.
JanineWhat's your dog's name?
CallerIt's Biscuit. He's due for his regular check-up.
JanineThanks. Is Biscuit a registered client with us, or would this be the first time?
CallerNo, he's been with you before. We're already registered.
JanineBrilliant. I've got a slot tomorrow at 9:20 with Dr Ahmed, or tomorrow at 4:40 with Dr Byrne — which suits you better?
CallerTomorrow at 9:20 would be perfect, thanks. That's ideal for me.
JanineLovely. And what's your name?
CallerIt's Gemma Reid.
JanineIs there anything the team should know — parking, a gate code, dogs?
CallerNo, nothing special really. I've got a blue Ford Focus if that helps with parking — the registration is L B 1 9 X Y Z.
JanineThanks for that. I'll text the confirmation to the number you're calling from. You're all booked, Dr Ahmed will be with you tomorrow at 9:20. Bye for now.

Questions vets ask before signing up

How much does an AI receptionist cost for vets?

£79 a month including 300 call minutes, then 15p a minute. Setup is £149, waived for the first five founder customers. There is no contract and no per-seat pricing; one price covers every call to your number.

Do vets have to change their phone number to use Ring Janine?

No. You keep your number and divert it to Janine only when you don't answer, using one dial code that works on every UK network. Callers ring the number on your van, your website and Google, and Janine picks up on ring five if you can't.

What does Janine actually say when someone rings a veterinary practice?

She answers as your business by name, finds out what the caller needs, asks the safety question first if it is urgent, takes the name and booking details, offers a slot from your real availability, reads the details back and texts the confirmation. The transcript on this page is a genuine call.

Does Janine quote prices for vets?

Only the prices you give her. She never invents a figure: if something is not on your price list she says the office will confirm and takes a message. Call-out and fixed prices are quoted with what they cover, so a caller never hears a number on its own.

How does Janine handle emergencies for vets?

is your pet breathing normally, bleeding, or unable to stand?

Can I hear Janine before I sign up?

Yes. Ring the demo line on 07360 266999, say "vet" when she asks which business to be, and have a normal conversation. Nothing is stored except the demo transcript.
