Dr. Spoof: How SpoofCard Can Help Doctors Call Their Patients on the Weekends
Doctors have to work long hours and are almost always on call. As a result, they treasure their private time and privacy in their personal life, including keeping their personal numbers secret from their patients.
It’s not that doctors don’t love their patients or want to be reachable when something is urgent, but the fact is that they would rather have someone screen their incoming patient calls to protect the rare free time they have. Answering services are very effective at helping sort through incoming patient calls during off hours and routing the most urgent ones to the doctor.
So what is a doctor to do on the weekends when they have to call a patient? That’s where SpoofCard comes to the rescue. SpoofCard allows doctors to make calls from their cell phone but show their answering service as their caller ID rather than their personal number. As a result, doctors can use the convenience of their cell phone to call patients while having the peace of mind that their personal number is protected while still providing a number for the patient to reach them if needed.
As a doctor, all you have to do is download our app (for Android or iPhone) on your phone and add credits. From there, you can call your patients on your personal cell phone through our app, keeping your personal number protected.
- Open the SpoofCard app on your cell phone.
- Tap on “Make a Call.”
- Add your patient's number that you want to call in the first input.
- Add the number for your office or your answering service in the second input (this is the caller ID your patient will see when you call).
- Tap “Place Call.”
