What our clients are saying

  • I think what's special is that I always receive positive feedback from my patients regarding appointment desk. They are amazed that they can actually speak to an "answering service", make the appointment or contact me if needed and are not frustrated. If one comment stands out, it's "whoever is answering your phone is so nice." Appointment Desk might be the first encounter that a new patient makes with my practice. A positive first impression can only help me.

  • The services at ADI have been such a blessing for me. Being a psychologist, I am unable to answer my phone during the day. ADI allows my clients to get a live voice when they contact my office instead of an answering machine, which I believe is invaluable these days. The people at ADI are extremely helpful. They set/reschedule appointments for me, answer client questions and only when necessary do they send people to my voice mail.
