When to use a booking system as a dietitian nutritionist?

If you are already in this space, you'll know there is a growing demand for dietitians across the nation. Since you are an expert on food and nutrition, you'll want spend most of your time helping your clients optimize their diet.

An appointment system can offer you peace of mind, knowing that your clients can schedule appointments 24/7. If you run a small practice, it can get annoying to have to deal with phone calls, texts, and emails when you're in the midst of a session with somebody.

When you put Vev's free booking link on your website, mention it on your social media profiles, or perhaps even spell it out on your voicemail, you can nudge clients easily towards managing their appointments online.

Dietitian management software also a great tool for getting more appointments over the weekend and outside your business hours.

The three top reasons to start working with a booking system for your business:

  • It’s free of charge. When you use Vev, your page will be up and running in under a minute. No credit card information is needed.
  • Be available when you are unavailable. Accept appointments when you are in the middle of one. Clients can book, cancel, and modify their appointments 24/7.
  • It’s expensive to make it yourself. You are probably not an expert in web development yourself. And if you use a (free) website builder, it probably doesn’t come with the smarts of a system that Vev offers you for free.

Don’t get interrupted during sessions, let your clients book themselves

How to run your business as a dietitian more efficiently?

You can read all the self-help books you want, but there’s nothing quite like having an “extra employee” at zero cost. Think of that analogy when you make use of an appointment system like Vev for your business. An online reservation system handles tasks big and small that otherwise eat up many minutes per task, and quickly accumulate to hours a month!

Three simple ways to run your business more efficiently starting today:

  1. Promote your booking link everywhere. From printed flyers/brochures to online ads. Make sure to make everything “actionable”. In that case, all people have to do is scan a QR code or click on a link to make their (first) appointment with you.
  2. Set up rules on when/how clients can book. With Vev's professional dietitian software it’s easy to customize your booking policy to fit your needs. For example, you can allow clients to only make bookings and changes up to 6, 12, 24, or even 48 hours in advance. This determines when your calendar is “locked”, and you have some peace of mind.
  3. Set up smart breaks. Traditional booking systems only allow you to set up fixed breaks, for example between 12 and 1pm. Vev's nutritionist software brings true flexibility to your booking system, for free.

Can I use separate software to schedule appointments for my practice?

No problem! In order to fully comply with various safety regulations around electronic patient records (EPR), you can use Vev's dietitian software to just schedule appointments with your clients. No patient data is stored in Vev, and we only store the information that is needed to make the appointment.

Payments can also be handled separately, so any complicated billing situation, such as health insurance reimbursements, can be dealt with separately.

We created Vev to be a natural extension of the software you might already be working with. In that case, you keep working with the professional service for the nutritional care you provide, and use Vev as a “smart digital assistant” to help you manage your time as efficiently as possible.

Don't forget that Vev also has a powerful CRM built-in


Can I offer telehealth appointments through a booking system?

Yes. The powerful nutritionist software from Vev allows you to offer virtual consultations. It also seamlessly integrates with the existing software you might use for your telehealth sessions. In that case, you only use Vev to schedule the appointment with your client and provide them with a link to the telehealth video service they can dial in.

This way, you have the peace of mind that the free software from Vev won't interfere with any electronic patient record regulations you need to comply with.


Remove all the back and forth to get appointments, focus on your clients instead

Can I also provide my services as a dietitian at people’s homes?

Yes! The free booking software from Vev also features a “home” option. All you have to do in that case is to set up an area you service once. From then on, when people visit your page, they have to enter their address and will see right away if your services are available to them. If needed, you can also charge for the mileage based on how far they are from your business address. This dietitian management software is a perfect and convenient extension to your business, allowing you to provide the best possible care.
