What the LinkedIn page is for
The Virtual Consultant Online LinkedIn page is aimed at clinicians, practice owners and practice managers rather than patients. It carries company updates, product news and write-ups of how digital and remote assessment workflows can fit into an orthodontic or dental practice. If you run or work in a practice and want to follow how the platform develops, the page is the simplest way to do it without checking the website, and it links to the fuller clinician pages for anyone who wants the detail.
What we share for clinicians
Content covers remote photo assessment, how consultations and quotes are managed online, how practices stay in control of clinical decisions, and how patient communication and follow-up can be organised in one place. Posts link to the platform highlights and clinician pages, where features are described in more depth. Updates are written for working professionals, so they focus on workflow, time and patient experience rather than marketing slogans.
Remote assessment in a practice workflow
A remote assessment lets a patient submit guided photos and answers before they come to the practice, so the first clinical conversation starts with more information. The clinician reviews the submission, decides what is appropriate and responds with options and cost guidance. Decisions about diagnosis and treatment stay with the registered clinician, and the platform records the exchange. The clinician pages explain how this sits alongside an in-person examination, which remains essential before treatment begins.
Information governance and patient data
Practices rightly ask how patient information is handled. The site publishes its privacy policy, data processing agreement and GDPR compliance information so that a practice can review them before deciding anything. If you are assessing the platform for a practice, read those documents alongside the product pages and ask any further questions during a demonstration. LinkedIn posts about security and data handling link back to those source documents rather than summarising them.
Who follows the page
The page is useful to orthodontists and dentists considering how to handle enquiries and consultations more efficiently, to practice managers looking at patient communication and follow-up, and to anyone interested in digital orthodontic workflows. Patients who are looking for treatment information will find the Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and TikTok channels, and the patient guides on the main site, more relevant. Students and new graduates interested in how orthodontic care is changing are also welcome, and the clinician pages give a useful overview of the platform's purpose before you read the updates.
Getting more detail before a demo
Before booking a demonstration it helps to read the platform highlights, the clinician overview and the pricing information, and to note the questions that matter to your practice, such as how referrals arrive, how quotes are approved and how information is shared with patients. The business case pages explain how the numbers can be thought through. A demonstration can then focus on your own workflow rather than a general tour.
How practices evaluate a platform like this
Most practices weigh the same few things: whether the tool saves clinical and administrative time, whether it improves the patient experience, whether it keeps clinicians in control, and whether the cost makes sense at their size. A useful way to evaluate is to map one real enquiry from first contact to quote and see where time is spent today. The business case pages set out how to think about that, and a demonstration is most valuable when you bring a real example of your own workflow to test against.
Following or contacting us
Following the page is free and gives you updates in your LinkedIn feed. Direct messages are not a support channel, so for questions about an account, a patient submission or a technical problem please use the contact page or the support routes in your account. If you would like to see the platform in action, you can book a demo directly from this page.
