One Answering Service for Your Entire Clinical Team.
Smart call routing that knows whether a call needs a doctor, nurse, or front desk.
A Doctors and Nurses Answering Service Built for Team-Based Care
In a multi-provider practice, every patient call needs to reach the right clinician — not just any available person. CallMyDoc’s doctors and nurses answering service routes calls by department, provider, urgency, and role so your clinical team works together seamlessly instead of playing telephone across the office.

Why Team-Based Call Routing Changes Everything
Traditional answering services treat every call the same — take a message, relay it to whoever is available. In a healthcare team, that approach creates chaos. Different calls need different people.
Calls Routed to the Right Role
A patient calling about post-surgical drainage should not reach the front desk. A scheduling request should not interrupt a nurse doing patient assessments. CallMyDoc categorizes every call into 12 distinct request types and routes each one to the clinician or staff member who can actually resolve it. Scheduling goes to the front desk. Clinical questions go to nursing. Refills go to the prescribing provider. Urgent symptoms go to the on-call physician.
Doctors Focus on Clinical Decisions
Physicians should only be interrupted for calls that require their clinical judgment — urgent symptoms, critical results, and complex clinical questions. Everything else should be handled by the appropriate team member. CallMyDoc’s urgency scoring ensures that doctors receive only the calls that truly need them, while routine requests are routed to staff who can resolve them faster.
Nurses Get Clinical Context
When a clinical call reaches a nurse, it arrives with the patient’s identity verified, their chart accessible, and the concern already categorized. The nurse does not need to spend time verifying who the patient is or figuring out why they called. They can go straight to clinical triage with all the context they need to make informed decisions.
Front Desk Handles Administration
Scheduling requests, insurance questions, new patient paperwork, and general inquiries are routed to the front desk as an organized, prioritized inbox. Your receptionist processes requests from a dashboard instead of answering live calls all day. This frees them to focus on in-office patient experience — check-ins, wait room management, and creating a welcoming environment.

Clinical Coordination in Action
Here is how CallMyDoc coordinates communication across a multi-provider healthcare team throughout a typical day.
8:15 AM — Morning Rush
Twenty patients call in the first hour. The automation sorts them instantly: 8 scheduling requests go to the front desk queue, 4 refill requests go to their respective prescribers, 3 clinical questions go to nursing, 2 test result inquiries go to the lab liaison, and 3 general inquiries are resolved automatically. No staff member answered a single phone call, yet every patient was served.
10:30 AM — Urgent Escalation
A patient calls reporting sudden chest pressure and shortness of breath. The system identifies the patient, recognizes the symptoms as high-urgency, and immediately pages the on-call physician with the patient’s chart summary, current medications, and cardiac history. The physician sees the alert on their mobile device within seconds — while they are between patients.
12:15 PM — Lunch Rush Overflow
Your front desk goes to lunch, but patients keep calling. CallMyDoc absorbs every call with zero hold times and zero busy signals. Scheduling requests are queued for when staff returns. Urgent clinical matters are escalated to the nursing station. Refill requests go to providers who can approve them from the break room. When staff comes back from lunch, they have an organized inbox instead of 15 voicemails.
9:47 PM — After Hours
A parent calls about their child’s 103° fever. The system identifies the pediatric patient, assesses urgency, and routes to the pediatrics on-call provider (not the family medicine provider on general call). The on-call pediatrician receives the alert with the child’s medical history, vaccination record, and the parent’s reported symptoms. They make an informed clinical decision in minutes, not after a relay chain.
Department-Level Routing for Multi-Provider Practices
For practices with multiple departments, specialties, or locations, CallMyDoc provides department-level routing that traditional answering services simply cannot replicate. An operator with a script cannot reliably determine whether a call should go to cardiology, pediatrics, OB-GYN, or internal medicine. An AI system that has already identified the patient and matched them to their chart can.
At Millennium Physician Group — 200+ locations, 900+ providers, 1,354 dashboards — CallMyDoc routes 34,492 calls per month across departments with precision that would require an army of trained operators to replicate manually. Each department has its own dashboard, its own routing rules, and its own escalation protocols.
This means an OB-GYN patient with after-hours bleeding reaches the OB on call, not the general internal medicine provider. A cardiology patient with palpitations reaches the cardiology triage nurse, not the front desk. A pediatric parent reaches the pediatric on-call, not a general message service.
The routing intelligence extends to time-of-day rules, on-call schedules, and provider availability. During business hours, calls route to the department inbox. After hours, urgent calls route to the department-specific on-call provider. The system knows who is covering, when their shift ends, and who takes over next.
This level of coordination is why enterprise-scale practices choose CallMyDoc over traditional answering services. When you have hundreds of providers across dozens of locations, routing accuracy is not a nice-to-have — it is a clinical necessity.
But department-level routing is not just for enterprise practices. Even a 5-provider multi-specialty clinic benefits from routing that sends cardiology calls to the cardiologist and pediatric calls to the pediatrician instead of dumping everything into a single voicemail box. The complexity of your routing rules should match the complexity of your practice — and CallMyDoc scales from simple single-department routing to 1,354-dashboard enterprise configurations without any change in platform capability.
For clinical teams of any size, the result is the same: doctors receive only the calls that require their clinical judgment, nurses receive the clinical questions they are trained to triage, and front desk staff receive the administrative requests they are equipped to handle. Everyone works at the top of their license, and patients get faster, more accurate responses.

Practice Types That Benefit Most From Team Routing
Multi-Specialty Groups
When cardiology, OB-GYN, internal medicine, and pediatrics share a phone system, calls must reach the right department. CallMyDoc routes by specialty, provider assignment, and clinical urgency so a cardiology patient never ends up in the pediatrics queue. Each specialty department gets its own dashboard with filtered views of their patient requests.
Community Health Centers (FQHCs)
Federally qualified health centers serve high-volume, diverse patient populations across multiple service lines — primary care, behavioral health, dental, pharmacy, and social services. CallMyDoc’s department-level routing and 43-language support ensures every patient reaches the right service line regardless of language barriers or complex organizational structures.
Multi-Site Physician Groups
When your practice spans multiple locations, centralized communication becomes critical. CallMyDoc provides location-aware routing that directs patients to their home office while maintaining visibility across all sites. Practice administrators can monitor call patterns, response times, and resolution rates across every location from a centralized dashboard.
Hospital-Affiliated Practices
Hospital-affiliated practices need communication systems that coordinate with the broader health system. CallMyDoc’s EHR integration and structured routing ensures that patient calls are documented in the same system the hospital uses, creating continuity between outpatient and inpatient communication. This is critical for care coordination and transitions of care.
Enterprise Scale: Millennium Physician Group
200+ locations across Florida. 900+ providers across multiple specialties. 1,354 dashboards with department-level routing. 34,492 monthly calls processed with 4.1M+ total calls handled to date. 52.1% of business-hours requests resolved within 1.8 hours. When doctors and nurses need to coordinate across a large organization, CallMyDoc is the communication backbone.
