Book a medical check-up by chasing hospitals over email

A poster's AI agent emailed hospitals, kept following up and moved on when one went quiet; they say the check-up was booked without ever talking to the hospital.

What they did

The poster had an AI agent book a medical check-up by email. The agent kept following up with the hospital. If one went quiet while time was tight, it switched to the next option.

How it went

The author says the booking was confirmed. They never spoke to the hospital until they walked in.

Worth knowing

The author argues the real value is in the follow-ups, not the first request. This matters most where replies are slow, as they find in Southeast Asia.

Try it yourself

Help me book a [type of appointment] at a clinic or hospital in [your city] between [date range]. List 3-5 suitable providers and draft a booking request email for each. Show me the drafts and wait for my approval before sending anything. After that, check my email daily for replies and draft polite follow-ups if there is no answer within [number] days. If one goes quiet and time is short, suggest moving to the next provider. Ask me before confirming any booking.

Swap the highlighted [parts] for your own details.
