The Challenge

Six offices, six phone systems, and 27% of calls going unanswered

Clarus Dermatology is in growth mode with six offices across Minnesota, but hiring front desk staff to keep up with inbound call volume was a constant battle. Each location managed its own phones independently, leading to hold times over 3 minutes and more than a quarter of all calls missed entirely.

They had tried other Voice AI vendors but were disappointed by rigid, one-size-fits-all agents that couldn't adapt to their workflows. Clarus needed a partner, not just a product.
