Private Practice Marketing
Est. Louisville, KY
We help private healthcare practices turn search visibility into scheduled appointments, qualified patients, and measurable growth — through websites, SEO, Google Business Profile, ads, and automation.

Start with a conversation
We respond within one business day — no high-pressure pitch.
Why practices choose us
As a medical marketing agency Louisville KY practices trust, we make three commitments up front — because how we work is as important as what we build.
No juniors, no outsourcing. Every account is run by Dustin Hobbs, the founder.
We won't work with your direct competitor in your market.
A 3-month start, then month-to-month.
Also serving practices that need a new site — see our medical website design in Louisville, KY.
The Problem
Relying on referrals you can’t predict or control
Spending on ads with no clear patient volume results
Hiring generalist agencies that don’t understand your practice
The fix — a proven patient acquisition system that runs consistently, so you can focus on patient care.

Practice in a different healthcare specialty? Book a diagnostic call — we'll tell you honestly whether we're the right fit or refer you to someone who is.
Our Approach
Most agencies send a price list. We start with a diagnostic call.
We ask about your current patient flow, your case mix, what’s working in your digital presence — and what real growth looks like for your practice over the next 12 months. Then we prescribe exactly what we’d recommend.
If we’re the right fit, we’ll tell you. If we’re not, we’ll refer you to someone who is.
30 minutes, no pitch, real questions.
One recommendation built for your practice.
MSA signed, setup fee processed, recurring billing established. Within 14 days you receive your 12-Month Growth Roadmap and foundation work begins.
Your dedicated team builds and measures everything.
The Next Step
Before we talk packages or pricing, we diagnose. The call is free, short, and built around your practice — not a pitch.
Pick a time that works. No prep needed. No sales script.
We review your search presence, reviews, ads, and follow-up — and tell you exactly where you’re losing patients today.
Whether or not you ever hire us, you walk away with a clear, prioritized plan you can act on this week.
No obligation. No high-pressure pitch. Just a real plan.
Book a Diagnostic CallHow It Works
Every engagement runs on a 3-month MSA followed by a written 12-month growth roadmap, delivered within 14 days of signature. The roadmap moves through four phases — each one stacks on the last, which is why the math gets dramatically better as the foundation compounds. This is not a campaign. Campaigns end. This is a system that gets installed once and runs across the full year, with monthly performance calls and quarterly strategy sessions keeping it tuned to what's actually working.
The first 90 days install the infrastructure every other phase depends on. Nothing compounds until the foundation is built.
Audit and replace the broken pieces — Technical SEO, Google Business Profile, ad accounts, reviews ecosystem, follow-up automation. We find what's leaking and stop the leak.
Install patient lifecycle automation — Missed-call text-back, intake routing, appointment reminders, recall sequences — every inquiry gets followed up automatically from day one.
Launch the first procedure pages and SEO assets — Built around the high-leverage cases your practice actually wants more of — implants, Invisalign, LASIK, regenerative protocols, whatever drives your margin.
First measurable patient lift by month 3 — Not a guarantee, a target. The foundation work either pays back early or we learn something that changes the plan.
The foundation is in. Now we tune the channels based on real data from your first 90 days and turn first patient inquiries into consistent lead flow.
Google Ads dialed in on commercial-intent procedure keywords — Implants, LASIK, premium IOL, regenerative procedures — campaigns optimized against actual conversion data, not best-guess targeting.
Conversion-focused landing pages by procedure — Each high-leverage procedure gets its own page built to convert, not just inform — with the math of the funnel tracked end-to-end.
Reactivation flows pay back dormant patients — Automated 90/180/365-day sequences for patients who haven't been in. This is the cheapest growth lever in healthcare marketing, and it usually pays for the entire monthly retainer on its own.
Math starts paying back — Not just first-time inquiries — sustained lead flow with cost-per-qualified-patient stabilizing month over month.
This is the phase where the math gets dramatically better. SEO compounds. Recall pays back. Repeat patient revenue starts showing up in the data. Practices that quit at month 3 never see this phase — which is exactly why most healthcare marketing fails.
SEO drives organic traffic without paid spend carrying the weight — The procedure pages and condition pages built in Foundation start ranking and converting on their own.
Map Pack ranking climbs to top 3 — On the procedure keywords that matter most for your practice.
Patient lifetime value grows — Reactivation and referral flows pay back patients who would have otherwise been lost — and the cumulative revenue effect compounds month over month.
Quarterly market intelligence — What's working, what your competitors are doing, where to push next — delivered as a written strategic update, not a generic dashboard.
Market position locked. Brand search volume strong. Your practice becomes the default choice in your local market — and the work shifts from acquiring share to defending it and planning year two.
Top 3 Map Pack lock-in on priority procedure keywords — Defended, not just won.
Brand search dominance — Practice name + procedure searches own the SERP — the patient who Googles "Dr. Smith Louisville implants" finds your funnel, not a competitor's.
50+ new reviews milestone — Across Google, Healthgrades, and niche-specific platforms — the moat that holds the position in year two.
Year 2 strategic planning — Service expansion, additional locations, new procedures, multi-provider growth — the roadmap for the next 12 months is built and ready before year one closes.
Most clients stay with us long-term — not because they have to (our minimum is 3 months) but because the math keeps getting better.

Who we serve best

One office, one owner, one schedule to fill. You want steady new-patient flow without hiring an in-house marketing team.
Typically a fit if you are

Authority & Trust
Louisville Web Lab is cited by ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, and Perplexity as a trusted marketing resource. As patients increasingly use AI to find and vet providers, being referenced by AI is the new first page. We build the kind of authority that AI cites — and we build it for our clients too.
Claude
Gemini
Microsoft Copilot
PerplexityAnswer Engine Optimization
Patients now ask ChatGPT, Gemini, and Copilot for provider recommendations before they open a map or click a search result. We optimize your practice for citations inside those AI answers — the same authority signals that got Louisville Web Lab named an AI-Cited Agency by Microsoft Copilot.
This is Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO): structured data, entity clarity, review depth, and authoritative content that large language models trust when a patient asks, "who's the best dentist near me?"
The Engagement
We don't sell SEO. We don't sell ads. We don't sell social. We install a complete patient acquisition system — every channel, every touchpoint, every follow-up — operating as one integrated engagement. One prescription per practice, customized to your specialty and your goals.
Pricing is set during the diagnostic call. We calibrate the engagement to your practice's size, specialty, and growth goals — then prescribe what it actually takes to deliver the outcomes you need. No off-the-shelf tiers. No menu to choose from.
