A CLEAR CONNECTION TO YOUR BUSINESS
See visibility and appointment opportunity together
Visible nearby
Watch your map position across the grid of searches around each clinic.
Action from the listing
Count calls, direction requests and website taps from the profile itself.
Visit that happened
Match those actions to booked and attended appointments each month.
A PLAN YOU CAN FOLLOW
Turn a local search into a conversation.
Find the local opportunity
Work out how far patients travel to each location and which treatments they search for nearby. Use that evidence to prioritize the service and market combinations worth competing for, based on the practice’s actual catchment and available care.
Strengthen your profile
Choose a Google profile category that matches the care provided, then list services, accepted insurance, accurate hours and contact details. Make booking the first action patients can tap and keep the profile aligned with what reception and the clinic door say.
Build local confidence
Give each clinic a page covering its address, parking, clinicians and services. Keep the same details in health directories and insurer listings, request reviews after completed visits without discussing care, and use feedback to support patient confidence.
Track qualified calls
Count calls, direction requests and booking clicks from the map, then ask reception how many became appointments that patients attended. Report both together, so local visibility is connected to real visits instead of treated as the result itself.
WHAT IS ELIGIBLE, AND WHAT IS NOT
Connect the practice and its providers
Most local problems at a multi-site practice are eligibility problems rather than ranking problems: a profile at an address nobody staffs, two profiles competing at one site, or a clinician listing that duplicates the practice it sits inside. Google’s guidelines decide what may exist and they change more often than anyone would like. The decisions below are the ones we take before creating anything, and we would rather turn a listing down than have it removed later with its reviews attached.
A clinic patients visit, with staff
What the guidelines allow: Its own Business Profile at that address. What we do: One profile, one location page, its own reviews, and the clinicians who actually work there.
A second site in another town
What the guidelines allow: Its own profile at that address. What we do: A separate profile and a page written for that catchment, not the first page with the town changed.
A clinician who practices at that clinic
What the guidelines allow: A practitioner profile alongside the practice’s, where they are public-facing and contactable there. What we do: One only where it is genuinely separate. Two profiles competing at one address help nobody, and the practice profile is the one patients search.
A room rented by the hour with no staff
What the guidelines allow: No profile. It is not an eligible location. What we do: Serve that area from the nearest staffed site and state the actual service area on the page.
The third row is the one that causes the argument. A clinician profile earns its place only where that clinician is genuinely contactable at the address, and a practice almost never gains from two listings competing for one set of searches.
WHAT A NEARBY PATIENT SEES
Be clear in the local results
A patient searching nearby chooses between three listings before any website is opened. What separates them is not a slogan: it is whether the listing names the specialty they need, says whether the practice is open and taking new patients, and offers the route they will actually use. Here is that moment, with the practice first and every field filled in the way we would fill it.

A FEW THINGS YOU MAY BE WONDERING
Good questions. Clear answers.
How do you handle individual doctors and clinic profiles?
The practice holds the primary profile. An individual doctor profile suits a clinician publicly reachable at that location where eligibility allows, not as a way to occupy more of the map.
Can you support a practice with several locations?
Yes. Every site with its own staff and hours gets a profile and a page describing the services offered there, tracked as its own market so a busy clinic cannot mask a quiet one.
How should reviews connect with patient trust?
Ask every patient consistently and reply to what they write. Never discuss anyone’s care in a public response: acknowledge the experience, apologize where warranted and move the conversation offline.
What should not be collected through a booking form?
Symptoms, diagnoses and anything else clinical. A booking form needs only enough to arrange the appointment; detail belongs in your patient system, not a marketing form or an analytics tool.
