Never Miss a Patient Call in Cork Again

Cork — Ireland's second city and self-proclaimed "Real Capital" — is home to over 224,000 residents and roughly 80 dental practices spread from Ballincollig to Carrigaline, Douglas to Blackpool. With University College Cork producing a steady stream of new graduates and the city's pharma and tech sectors (Apple, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson) driving population growth, Cork's dental market is more competitive than ever. VoiceFleet's AI receptionist gives your practice an edge by answering every single call.

How VoiceFleet Works for Cork Dentists

  1. We assign you a local 021 Cork number (or port your existing one)
  2. Our AI learns your practice — treatments, pricing, availability, and your clinic's personality
  3. Calls are answered instantly — bookings go straight into your diary, day or night
  4. You get a daily summary — every call logged, every appointment confirmed

Why Cork Dental Practices Choose VoiceFleet

The Cork Challenge

  • Cork's rapid suburban expansion into Ballincollig, Carrigaline, and Midleton means new dental practices are opening constantly — patients have more choice than ever
  • The Jack Lynch Tunnel and Cork's traffic bottlenecks mean patients often call from the car during frustrating commutes — if you don't answer, they'll try the next practice on Google
  • UCC's 23,000+ student population expects instant digital-first experiences and won't leave voicemails
  • The English Market area and Patrick Street attract thousands of visitors daily, generating walk-in enquiries and calls that can overwhelm a single receptionist
  • Cork's pharmaceutical and tech workers often work shifts that don't align with standard 9-5 practice hours

The VoiceFleet Difference

  • 24/7 availability — handles calls from shift workers at Ringaskiddy pharma plants at 6am and student emergencies at midnight
  • Multiple concurrent calls — no engaged tones when Monday morning hits
  • GDPR-compliant, EU data centres (Ireland & Frankfurt)
  • Understands Cork accents — the distinctive lilt that voice recognition systems notoriously struggle with
  • Integrates with Dentally, SOE, Exact, and other systems used by Cork practices

What Your Patients Experience

"I'd been putting off finding a new dentist since moving to Cork from Dublin. Called a practice on Washington Street at 8pm on a Tuesday — the AI answered, asked about my history, and booked me in for Thursday. Got a confirmation text immediately. No hassle at all." — New resident, Cork city

Pricing for Cork Practices

Starting from €199/month. Cork practices typically see ROI within the first month — just two or three recovered missed calls cover the cost.
