Ally T.

Physician Associate - Provider

“The system has helped streamline our patient journey, bookings, consultations and communication all in one place, making day-to-day clinic management far more efficient.”
BB

Birju B.

Director

“The AI dictation feature has been a huge time-saver, accurately capturing my notes and reducing the amount of typing I have to do.”
MB

Michael B.

Registered Nurse

Cons

“The biggest drawback is that certain features can feel complicated to navigate, especially when setting up reports, templates, billing and invoicing patient payments, and custom settings.”
LC

Louise C.

Patient Care Coordinator

“We also experienced duplicate patient records, thousands of missing dates of birth, checkout/functionality problems, and an implementation process that caused significant disruption to our daily operations.”
NJ

Natalie J.

Owner

“After numerous attempts to resolve the issues and ultimately requesting cancellation of PatientNow and Recura, I am still waiting for meaningful communication from senior leadership.”
NJ

Natalie J.

Owner

Cons

“Our biggest disappointment was learning that true two-way SMS messaging wasn't available when we implemented the platform, as we originally believed it was. Since texting is a major part of patient communication in aesthetics, this was an important feature for our practice.”
LW

Leigh W.

Practice Manager

“Before switching to Pabau, we were using Zenoti and experienced daily operational issues that frequently interrupted our workflow and required ongoing troubleshooting.”
LW

Leigh W.

Practice Manager

“Time difference between Europe and USA and restriction of support staff time availability which makes it hard to schedule times”
