Automated Doctolib Cancellation Alerts
Twice a day, WebRun signs in to Doctolib, compares the schedule against the last run to find appointments that were cancelled, records each newly empty slot with its practitioner, time, and appointment type, opens a Trello card per gap, and tells the front desk on WhatsApp which slots to refill first.
How do I refill appointment slots after a patient cancels?
WebRun catches cancellations for your practice twice a day. It compares the Doctolib agenda against the previous run, finds slots that have emptied, opens a Trello card for each with practitioner, time, and appointment type, and tells the front desk on WhatsApp which gaps to refill first.
- Cancellations are noticed within hours instead of on the day
- The front desk works a ranked list rather than scanning the agenda
- No patient details leave Doctolib
Built for medical practices · dental clinics · physiotherapists · practice managers

How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it contact patients to offer the slot?
No. WebRun never messages a patient. It reports the empty slots to your front desk, and a person decides who to call and books the appointment.
Does it book, move, or cancel anything in Doctolib?
No. It only reads the agenda. Every booking change is made by your staff inside Doctolib.
Does it copy patient details anywhere?
No. The cards and messages carry the practitioner, time, duration, and appointment type only, so no patient information leaves Doctolib.
