New – Text Appointment Reminders

August 4, 2018
by Dekalb Pediatrics


We are excited to announce that we now have the capability to text appointment reminders! You will receive a text message from enablemessage@medicat.com 1 day before your child’s scheduled appointment with a link to visit the patient portal to complete your pre-visit forms. Please call us if you are not able to keep the appointment and need to reschedule. We will also envision using this technology to send out urgent practice wide alerts and we’re working on ways to send text reminders in advance when well visits and or immunizations are due. You have the option of opting out of this service by completing an opt out form at check in, calling us, and soon on the patient portal.

Many of you have asked us to add this service and we are pleased to be able to do so. Thanks for all of your suggestions and ongoing support. We’d love your feedback as we get this going!
