Chimehill at a glance for naturopathy clinics
Picking up while the desk is busyThe call is answered
Chimehill picks up as your clinic when your team can't, day, night and weekends, and works out what the caller needs.
Your diary is checked live
Before offering a time, it reads the real free slots in your practice software, using only the appointment types and practitioners you allow.
Saved, then confirmed
Bookings, moves and cancellations are saved in your practice software first. Only then does the caller hear it's done.
Your phone rings during a long consult
In a naturopathy clinic the first appointment runs 60 or 90 minutes, and you can't step out of it. People ringing to book, to ask about a herbal tincture or to collect a supplement don't always try again. Chimehill answers each call, so the room stays yours.
Mid-consultA long first visit. A ringing phone.
You're deep in a history. You can't walk out to answer the phone.
Lunch breakThe desk is empty
Reception steps away, but new clients still ring.
After hoursThe clinic is closed
People ring after work to book a first consult. Chimehill answers and books them in.
Answer every call without leaving the consult room

Books initial consults
The longer first visit with history-taking and testing review, at the length you set, into a real slot with the right naturopath.
Rebooks follow-ups
Follow-up consults with the same naturopath, each slot re-checked before saving so you never double-book over a long appointment.
Takes supplement pickups
Supplement, tincture and tea pickup times, refill requests and "is my order ready?" calls — passed to your team so you don't step out of a consult.
Answers clinic questions
What to bring, how long a first visit takes, parking and fees, from answers you approve. It never says what naturopathy can treat.
Loops in your team
Health history, interactions between a herb or supplement and a medication, and "will this help my condition?" go to a naturopath with a short summary.

Careful with every call
Chimehill never says what naturopathy or supplements can treat, and never takes health history on the phone. Herb-drug questions and anything clinical go to your naturopaths, and urgent language follows the escalation script you approved.
- Never clinical. No diagnosis, triage or treatment advice
- Checks who's calling before opening or changing a booking
- Urgent or distressing calls follow the escalation script your clinicians approve
- Tells callers they're booked only once your software confirms it

Questions clinics ask us
Can it book the longer initial consult?
Yes. You choose the appointment type for new clients, and Chimehill books the initial consult as that longer type, offering only real free times.
Can it handle supplement and herbal pickup calls?
Yes. It takes the caller's name and number and passes the pickup or refill question to your dispensary as a callback task. It never reads or quotes a prescription.
What if someone asks about a herb or supplement interaction?
That's a clinical question, so it goes to a naturopath as a callback. Chimehill never guesses on interactions between a supplement, a herb and a medication.
Will it take a new client's health history?
No. Chimehill doesn't collect health details on the call. Intake questions go to your team as a callback task, so your own intake form or first visit stays the same.
Which practice software does it book into?
Cliniko, Splose, PracSuite and Nookal, live as of October 2026. Chimehill reads live availability and only says an appointment is booked once your software has saved it. Using something else? Tell us when you book a demo.
Can we keep our clinic phone number?
Yes. You forward calls to Chimehill — all calls, only overflow when the desk is busy, or only after hours — and you can change that or switch it off whenever you like.
How much does it cost?
Plans start at $249 a month (AUD) for 100 calls; the recommended plan is $379 for 200 calls. Calls past your allowance are $2.70 each. Every plan starts with 14 days free and there are no lock-in contracts.
Will callers know they're talking to an AI?
Yes. Chimehill introduces itself as your clinic's virtual receptionist on every call, and a caller who asks for a person always gets your configured fallback — a transfer or a callback.
Every call deserves an answer.
