Patient feedback and Google reviews, with a signed BAA
We sign a Business Associate Agreement, run your account in a separate US environment, and never take clinical details from your practice systems. You hear from every patient after their visit and grow your Google reviews, with every patient asked the same way.
- Signed BAA

Built for practices that handle patient information
If your practice is covered by HIPAA and you want Spokk to work with patient names, contact details and visit information, this is the plan for you.
- Dental practices
- Orthodontists
- Medical practices
- Pediatric practices
- Optometrists
- Dermatology
- Mental health and therapy
- Physical therapy
- Chiropractic
- Urgent care
- Sexual health clinics
Not sure whether HIPAA applies to you? HHS explains who counts as a covered entity. If it does not apply, the standard plan from $149 a month, billed yearly, is the better fit.
What is included
One clear job, done well
Hear from every patient after their visit, fix problems fast, and grow your Google reviews.
Private patient feedback
A short form by text or email after each visit. Ratings, comments and clinician ratings land in your private dashboard, and low ratings reach your team straight away.
Google review invitations
Every patient gets the same invitation to review you on Google, whatever their rating, with an AI draft written from what they shared. Patients edit it and post it from their own account.
AI review replies
Spokk drafts replies to your new Google reviews for you to approve. Keep them general: a reply should never confirm that someone is a patient.
Automated texts and emails
Feedback requests and reminders go out on their own after each visit, at the times you choose.
Clinician ratings
Patients can rate the clinician who looked after them on the same form. You see each rating with the patient's feedback and in your export, for every location.
Front-desk accounts
Front-desk staff can send feedback requests without being able to read what patients wrote.
Safeguards
How we protect patient information
A summary of the safeguards in our Business Associate Agreement. The BAA is the binding commitment.
Separate, US-based hosting
Your account runs in Spokk's dedicated healthcare environment on Amazon Web Services in the United States, kept apart from Spokk's standard service, which never holds patient information.
Encrypted at rest and in transit
AES-256 encryption for the database, stored files, backups and logs, and TLS 1.2 or higher for all traffic over the internet.
Only the right people get in
Everyone has their own login. Two-factor authentication is available to your staff and required for Spokk staff, and sessions sign out after 15 minutes of inactivity, with a warning first.
Every access is recorded
Each view, change and export of patient feedback is logged: who, which record and when. The log cannot be edited and is kept for six years.
Only the data we need
Name, phone, email, contact preferences and consent, visit date and time, location and clinician. Never diagnoses, clinical notes, medications, insurance details, Social Security numbers or dates of birth from your systems. Patients under 18 can be skipped automatically.
No trackers and no AI training
No advertising, analytics or tracking tools run in the healthcare environment. AI features run inside AWS, and your data is never used to train AI models, never sold and never used for marketing.
Two subcontractors, both under BAAs
Amazon Web Services for hosting, messaging and AI, and Google Workspace for email with your team. You get 30 days' written notice before any new subcontractor handles patient information.
If something goes wrong
Continuous threat detection with alerts to our team. A breach is reported to you within 5 business days, with a first notice within 72 hours where possible.
Your patients' rights
Account owners can download a patient's complete record from the dashboard in one click. Amendments and accountings of disclosures are handled within 10 business days.
Backups, and if you leave
Encrypted backups with point-in-time recovery, kept for 30 days. When your plan ends, we return or destroy your data within 30 days and certify its destruction on request.
Before you sign, we send you our one-page security summary and the BAA to review. Security questions: hello@spokk.io
What we leave out
What we leave out, and why
Some Spokk features are switched off on the Healthcare plan. They market to patients or put patient stories on public pages, which HIPAA generally allows only with written authorization from each patient.
Switched off on this plan
- Loyalty rewards
- Referral rewards
- Testimonials (video, image and text) and the Wall of Love
What you get instead
- Every patient asked the same way. Asking only happy patients is review gating, which Google does not allow.
- Low ratings reach your team straight away, so someone can follow up personally.
- A focused plan your practice manager can explain to the team in five minutes.
Your part
- Keep clinical details out of texts and emails, which are not encrypted once they leave our systems.
- Choose who is contacted, and at which number or address.
- Turn on two-factor authentication for your staff.
- Never confirm in a public review reply that someone is a patient.
Our promise
Our promise to your practice
We set Spokk up with you, shape it around your practice, and refund you in full if it is not right.
60days
60-day money-back guarantee
Use Spokk with your real customers. If it is not right for your business, tell us within 60 days of your first payment and we refund what you paid, in full. No forms and no hoops.
- Full refund of what you paid
- Covers the whole yearly payment
- Just ask by email or on a call
- Cancel any time in settings
Pay for the year, then take 60 days to see it working with your own customers. If Spokk is not paying for itself, you should not be paying for Spokk.
We shape Spokk around your practice
Tell us how your practice works and we set Spokk up to match: your wording, your questions, your timing. Need a feature it does not have yet, or a connection to a system you already use? If it is within our ability and fits your BAA, we build it for you at no extra cost.
- Your patient texts, forms, questions and timing, set up with you on a call
- Custom features built for you, within your BAA
- Connections to the systems your practice already uses, within your BAA
- A real person who keeps adjusting it until it fits
We are flexible. If something does not fit how your practice works, tell us and we change it, and we keep working with you until you are happy.
Updates and new features are included too, as you would expect.
A short call to check the plan fits. No obligation.
