Carrie Scott(updated August 18, 2026)

Up North Pediatrics adopted Spruce as its medical-grade communication platform, and texting changed how the practice runs. Dr. Amy Couturier credits heightened accessibility for stronger retention and satisfaction, with productivity gains across the team:

  • High levels of retention and satisfaction due to heightened accessibility
  • Heightened productivity via easy and consistent communication with hundreds of patient families
  • Accurate communication exchange; texting reduces errors & ensures accurate follow-up
  • Faster patient onboarding
  • The ability to scale as the practice grows
  • Access to virtual diagnoses that spare unnecessary trips to the ER
  • Streamlined appointment setting and check-up reminders
  • Delineation between urgent and non-urgent communication
  • And more!
