Feedback that made our team blush (a little)
The primary reason I decided to bring on a Virtual Assistant was to free up my time, allowing me to focus on growing the business instead of getting bogged down by routine tasks. My VA has made that possible. I'm truly happy with my decision to work with Wishup.
I never considered hiring a virtual assistant for my business but Wishup was different, my virtual assistant exceeded expectations! It is more affordable than I thought and the help she provides on a daily basis is incredible!
Beyond the administrative expertise, my VA also excels in outreach and communications. Her proactive follow-ups have strengthened our relationships with stakeholders, building trust and transparency across the board.
Throughout the day, I just drop WhatsApp voice notes like, 'Hey, please send an email to so-and-so…' and it's done. That mental load is off my head and into a system I trust. At the end of the day, I have 20 drafted emails ready to review, 90% perfect.
Professional, trustworthy, and competent is how I would describe Virtual Assistants at Wishup. In just a few months, they've really impressed me with their services and made my life much easier.
I appreciate the value a Wishup VA can bring to a business. The VAs of Wishup are very understanding and well trained in multiple skillsets, making them indispensable.
These knowledge workers are so smart, educated, and articulate and also seek clarification to understand me as an individual and what I'm looking for. They are also very talented as critical thinkers.
I couldn't be more thrilled with my Wishup VA. It took me a few weeks to get the time to organize the work to assign initially, but it's been the best business decision for me this year.
Working with Wishup has given our small and rapidly growing business the ability to move faster while simultaneously freeing up many hours a week. As a result, we can now focus on our strategy. The Wishup team will be a significant contributing factor to our future success.
Good people are hard to find. Finding and keeping a really good admin was a challenge for us. Wishup provided an experienced admin and even trained them on topics and software specific to our business.

One wrong digit in a CPT code? That's a denied claim. 2. Clear, Friendly Patient Communication: From explaining dilation instructions to helping someone understand their vision plan benefits, your virtual assistant should speak like part of your clinic (empathetic, informed, and easy to talk to). 3. Confident Appointment Coordination: Between routine eye exams, contact lens fittings, and medical eye visits, scheduling in optometry is not always straightforward. 4. EMR, Insurance & Tech Fluency: They should be comfortable using your EMR system, handling insurance verifications, uploading patient intake forms, and navigating platforms for teleconsults. 5. Independent Problem-Solving: A great VA doesn't wait. They troubleshoot and follow through without hand-holding. 6. HIPAA-Savvy & Privacy-First: Your VA needs to respect patient confidentiality and follow HIPAA regulations to the letter.
