Rheumatology clinics · Follow up systems
Make sure the patient who needs the next blood test hears from you before the date passes.
A follow-up system for a rheumatology clinic is the set of reminders and calls that carry a patient from enquiry to first visit and then through years of reviews. GullySales builds the schedule, the messages and the register, using only contacts who agreed to hear from you.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What follow up systems means
A follow-up system is the set routine for calling, messaging or emailing an enquiry more than once, since most buyers do not decide on the first conversation. GullySales sets the number and timing of follow-ups so an undecided buyer keeps hearing from you until they decide either way.

For rheumatology clinics
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The first visit is easy to miss”
A patient who lives in another town needs a reminder of the date, the old reports to bring and who should come. Without it, the booking is the first thing to slip when the week gets busy.
“Reviews depend on the register”
A patient on long-term treatment has a test and a review due on set dates. The follow-up that matters is the call before the date, not the one after the flare.
“A patient who stops the medicine goes silent”
Someone frightened by what they read online may stop a tablet and stay away. A kind check-in after a missed review, offering a call with the clinic, brings some back before the next flare.
“Referrers need a loop too”
A referring doctor should hear that the patient came and that a plan exists, with the patient's consent. A short note keeps referrals coming.
What we do
What we deliver for rheumatology clinics.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A pre-visit sequence
A confirmation, a reminder of what to bring and a message with directions for the first visit.
Result: The patient receives each message once and in the right order.
A review and test reminder routine
A reminder tied to the register's due date, with a route to rebook.
Result: The register shows who was reminded and who confirmed.
A missed-visit message
A polite message after a missed review that offers a call and a new date.
Result: A patient who misses a date is contacted, not forgotten.
A referrer update note
A short note to the referring doctor after the visit, sent with the patient's consent.
Result: Each referral has an acknowledgement and an update on record.
Opt-out handling
A clear way to stop messages, honoured in every list.
Result: A person who opts out is removed from every reminder.
How the result is measured
- Follow-up completion rate
- Average number of follow-ups before close
- Enquiries closed after repeat follow-up

How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
First
Your brief
You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.
After the brief
A conversation and a written scope
We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.
Before work starts
Baseline recorded
The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.
After the baseline
The first fix goes live
The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.
As agreed
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.
At renewal
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.
How the follow up systems work runs
- 1
Measure today's reply time
From last month's enquiries, we measure how long each waited for a first reply and how many follow-ups it got.
- 2
Agree targets and the sequence
We set reply targets and the follow-up sequence with your team, based on its real hours and workload.
- 3
Set up templates, tasks and ownership
Templates, first-call questions, CRM tasks and named owners go live, with cover for leave and weekends.
- 4
Track and adjust every month
Reply time and follow-up completion are reported against the baseline, and the routine is changed where it is not kept.
Why us
Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.
Marketing and sales, as one job
Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.
The person on the first call does the work
No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.
A baseline before anything starts
Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.
The fee in writing, split three ways
Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.
No guarantees we cannot keep
The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
