Clinic reminder templates by specialty
The best reminder isn't one-size-fits-all. A laser session isn't a dental recall isn't a child's vaccine. Here are real, copy-paste WhatsApp reminder templates written for each specialty, with placeholders like {{name}}, {{doctor}}, {{date}}, {{time}} and {{clinic}}.
Why a reminder should fit the specialty
Patients respond to a message that reads like it was written for them. A reminder that says "your 3rd of 6 laser sessions" is clearer and more convincing than a generic appointment note. When the message knows the specialty's context — a six-month recall, a due vaccine, a day-1 post-op check — no-shows drop and patients feel the clinic is organized and attentive. These templates are a starting point: copy them, adapt them in your clinic's voice, then turn them into an approved WhatsApp template inside Morasel to send automatically.
A reminder that fits each specialty
Dental — 6-month recall
"Hi {{name}}, it's been 6 months since your last check-up at {{clinic}}. Shall we book a cleaning and exam with Dr. {{doctor}} this week? Reply YES and we'll find a time that suits you."
Dermatology — laser session (3 of 6)
"Hi {{name}}, a reminder for your 3rd of 6 laser sessions with Dr. {{doctor}} on {{date}} at {{time}}. Please avoid sun exposure beforehand and arrive without makeup."
Physiotherapy — missed-session recovery
"Hi {{name}}, we missed you at your last session. Staying consistent with physio is key to your recovery. Shall we reschedule your session at {{clinic}} this week? Reply YES and we'll pick a time."
Pediatrics — vaccine due (to the parent)
"Dear parent of {{name}}, your child's next vaccine is due at {{clinic}}. We suggest an appointment with Dr. {{doctor}} on {{date}} at {{time}}. Reply CONFIRM, or CHANGE to pick another time."
Ophthalmology — post-op day-1 check
"Hi {{name}}, a reminder for your day-1 post-op check with Dr. {{doctor}} tomorrow, {{date}} at {{time}}. This visit matters so we can make sure you're healing well. Please bring your drops."
Nutrition — weekly check-in
"Hi {{name}}, it's time for your weekly check-in with {{clinic}} on {{date}} at {{time}}. How did your week on the plan go? Bring your food diary and we'll review your progress together."
Veterinary — pet vaccine by name
"Hi {{name}}, {{pet}}'s annual vaccine is due at {{clinic}}. We suggest an appointment with Dr. {{doctor}} on {{date}} at {{time}}. Reply CONFIRM to book, and don't forget the vaccination card."

Tip: turn your template into an approved WhatsApp template
To send reminders automatically on WhatsApp, a message must go through an approved template. Inside Morasel, add your reminder text with its placeholders, choose its category and language, and submit it for approval. Once approved it's ready to link to appointment types and send at the right moment. Keep the message short, clear, and useful to the patient to ease approval and improve response. Use these templates manually — or automate them with Morasel.

Frequently asked questions
Why use specialty-specific reminders?
Because a message that knows the specialty's context — laser session 3 of 6, a 6-month dental recall, a child's vaccine — is clearer and more convincing than a generic reminder, so no-shows drop and patients feel the clinic is organized.
Can I edit these?
Yes, and we recommend it. These templates are a starting point; adapt the tone, doctor names, and details to fit your clinic's voice while keeping the message short and clear.
Are these approved WhatsApp templates?
They're ready-to-use text, not automatically approved. To send them automatically on WhatsApp, add them in Morasel as an approved WhatsApp template and submit them for approval first.
How does automation work?
Once a template is approved in Morasel, you link it to an appointment type, and the reminder sends automatically at the right time before each visit with no manual effort.
How much does Morasel cost?
Clinic plans start at $49/month with a 14-day free trial and no card. See the clinic pricing page.
