Challenge

Northline's booking flow asked patients for nine fields before showing a single open appointment. Two in five sessions abandoned before confirmation, and call-center volume was rising faster than headcount.

Approach

We mapped every drop-off point against call-center transcripts, then rebuilt intake as a single-question-per-screen flow with live availability shown up front. Design and engineering shipped in the same two-week sprints so copy, layout, and API contracts stayed in sync.

Outcome

Completed bookings rose 38% in the first full quarter post-launch, and inbound scheduling calls dropped enough to redeploy two support staff to patient follow-up.
