Comment to DM, from your surgeon's Reel to a booked consultation

Dana wants to meet a surgeon before she decides anything. She finds Dr. Lee's Reel and wants to ask in private.

  1. Your Reel

    Your surgeon's Reel invites new patients

    Dr. Lee says hello and explains how a first consultation works. In the caption, you ask people to comment CONSULT.

  2. The comment

    Dana comments CONSULT

    CONSULT is your keyword, and it names no procedure. Mia and Sam thank the team, and their comments get no DM.

  3. The DM

    Dana gets your booking link in a private chat

    Dana gets your message and a Book a consultation button while Dr. Lee is in surgery. Other followers do not see the chat.

  4. Your booking tool

    Dana books Tuesday 10 am

    The button opens your booking tool in Dana's browser. Dana picks a time, and her questions wait for the consultation.

Instagram auto-reply for consultations, fees and private questions

Four automations a plastic surgery clinic can run. Each one keeps questions about procedures out of the comments.

  • Reel comments · CONSULT

    People who want to meet your surgeon get your booking link and pick a consultation time. CONSULT names no procedure, so the public comment stays neutral.

    How comment auto-reply works →
  • Keyword DMs · FEES

    People who send you FEES get your consultation fee and how quotes work. Your surgeon gives each price at the consultation.

    How keyword DMs work →
  • Story replies · ASK

    People who reply to your Story get the link to your own question form. They write health questions there, not in a DM.

    How Story replies work →
  • Post comments · GUIDE

    People get your list of questions for a first consultation, and you get their email. Email Gate asks for it first, on Pro and Growth. With no answer in about 15 minutes, it sends the guide anyway.

Instagram DM automation that sends your booking link during surgery

By hand, people wait until your coordinator has a free minute. With CreatorFlow, they book while your coordinator is still with a patient.

By hand

  • ✕Someone asks about a consultation at 10 am. Your surgeon is in surgery until 4 pm.
  • ✕Your coordinator types the same answer about fees and quotes.
  • ✕Someone writes personal details in a DM, and you move them to a form by hand.

With CreatorFlow

  • Your booking link arrives in seconds, even during surgery.
  • People who send FEES get your fee and how quotes work.
  • People who reply ASK get your private form, away from Instagram.

What CreatorFlow can and cannot do for plastic surgeons

Read these before Dr. Lee's next Reel.

What you can set

  • Give each question its own neutral keyword: CONSULT, FEES or ASK.
  • Send your booking link, fee page and private form as up to 3 link buttons.
  • Answer a keyword someone sends you in a DM, such as FEES.
  • Answer Story replies, so one Story can share your private form.
  • Run one workspace per surgeon who has their own Instagram account.

What to know first

  • A DM is not a medical channel. It gives no medical advice, so do not ask for photos or health details in a DM.
  • Comments are public. Use a neutral keyword such as CONSULT, never a procedure name.
  • Advertising rules for medical treatments differ by country. Check yours, and do not promise a result in a DM.
  • People who do not follow you find the DM in Message Requests.
  • Instagram allows 200 DMs an hour. Extra DMs wait for the next hour.
  • Each automation sends one DM, with one optional step before it. There are no follow-up messages.
  • CreatorFlow works with Instagram only. It cannot send a DM when someone follows you.

Your account

  • CreatorFlow is a Meta-approved Tech Provider.
  • It uses the official Instagram API. There is no browser extension.
  • You connect Instagram on Instagram's own screen. CreatorFlow does not see your password.
  • It only sends DMs to people who contacted you first.

Instagram DM automation questions from plastic surgeons

Short answers about consultations, privacy and your account.

More for clinicsAesthetic clinicsPrivate clinicsBook appointmentsAll industries

Does CreatorFlow book consultations or say who is a good candidate?

No. CreatorFlow sends the words and the link you wrote. It does not see your surgeon's calendar, and it gives no medical advice. Only your surgeon can answer that question, at the consultation.

Which booking tools and practice software work with it?

Any booking tool or form that gives you a link. The link appears as a button in the DM. CreatorFlow does not connect to practice software, so patient files do not change.

Can patients send photos or a medical history by DM?

They should not, so do not ask for them. Instagram DMs are not a secure place for patient details. Collect them in your own consultation form.

What if a patient writes after surgery with a problem?

CreatorFlow does not answer urgent messages. A message without your keyword gets no reply and stays in your inbox. Give patients your clinic's phone number for questions after surgery.

Can my coordinator and each surgeon have a login?

No. CreatorFlow has no team seats, and each account has one Google login. A surgeon with their own Instagram account uses a separate workspace: 1 on Free, 2 on Pro and 5 on Growth.

Is it safe for my clinic's Instagram account?

CreatorFlow is a Meta-approved Tech Provider and sends messages through Instagram's official API. You do not share your password. It only replies to people who contacted your clinic first. Instagram decides how it applies its rules, so no tool can promise your account will never be limited.

How much does Instagram DM automation cost for a clinic?

CreatorFlow is free for 500 DMs a month, with comment, Story reply and keyword DM automations. Pro costs $15 a month for 5,000 DMs and adds Email Gate and link tracking. Growth costs $30 a month for 10,000 DMs and 5 workspaces. Every plan includes unlimited automations.

Consultations booked from your surgeon's Reels

Let Dr. Lee answer one more question in a Reel, with CONSULT in the caption. Add the consultation booking link to your DM. People book a consultation without naming a procedure in public.
