Private GPs + Stripe
The AI receptionist for private GPs that writes straight into Stripe.
The caller will try three private GPs before the one that picks up wins their booking.
How it works
Take a deposit on the call. Foan reads your Stripe products, generates a one-time payment link mid-conversation, and texts it to the caller before they hang up.
Why private GPs miss calls.
Patients ringing for an appointment hate phone trees and "we will call you back". They want the slot now.
It is a Monday morning. A father is ringing about his fourteen-year-old daughter who has been getting headaches for six weeks. The NHS has offered him an appointment in nine weeks. He is going private. He is willing to pay £180 for a same-week appointment. He has three clinics in the area and rings yours first because you came up top in the search.
Your reception is fielding three other calls and a patient who walked in for an ECG. The phone rings out. He rings the next clinic. They pick up on the second ring and book his daughter in for Thursday. That is £180 today, follow-ups every six months, blood panels, his wife's HRT review, his own annual check, the kids' travel jabs, and the referral letters they will all need over the next decade.
Foan picks up in two seconds in a calm, clinical-sounding voice. Asks what is going on, who the appointment is for, whether they have been seen by an NHS GP about it, when they could come in. Books the appointment in Cliniko or Semble. Texts the registration form so the doctor walks in already briefed.
What you get on day one.
-
Every call answered in two seconds. No queue, no missed-call voicemails, no "we'll get back to you tomorrow".
-
Calls flow into Stripe automatically. No copy-paste from notepad. Whatever Stripe expects, Foan writes.
-
UK phone number included. Take a new line or forward your existing business number. Either way, Foan picks up.
-
Text or WhatsApp the second the call ends. You're on a job, you don't pick up — Foan does the work and tells you what was said.
Ready in 10 minutes.
Plans from £999/mo. Cancel any time. Number forwarding works on the existing line you already pay for.
Frequently asked
Does Foan really work for private GPs using Stripe?
Yes. Patients ringing for an appointment hate phone trees and "we will call you back". They want the slot now. Foan answers calls live, qualifies them by asking the questions a private gp would ask, and writes the outcome into your Stripe automatically. There's nothing for you to copy across.
How does Foan + Stripe compare to hiring a receptionist?
A part-time receptionist costs around £1,800/mo and only covers business hours. Foan picks up 24/7 in two seconds, never misses a call during peak, and starts at £999/mo. Everything ends up in Stripe the same way a human assistant would log it — except instantly and without typos.
What if a caller asks a question Foan doesn't know the answer to?
Foan is configured with your business hours, services, prices and FAQs the moment it's set up — we scan your website automatically. For anything genuinely unknown, the agent admits it doesn't know, takes the caller's contact details, and pings you so you can ring back. Better than voicemail, every time.
How quickly can I get this live with Stripe?
Under 10 minutes. Sign up, connect Stripe via OAuth (one click), pick a UK phone number, point your existing business line at it. Foan starts answering on the next ring.
