    The Detail

    Who this is for

    • Independent practices offering dental implants and full arch, bariatric or medical weight loss, or plastic surgery.
    • Practices with fewer, older or thinner reviews than the competitor down the road.
    • Practices that want every review answered without the doctor writing the replies at night.

    Not a fit: DSOs, private-equity or hospital-owned groups, chiropractic, urgent care, emergency, primary care or general family practice.

    What reviews do for a practice

    Reviews do three jobs at once. They're why a patient picks you over the practice three miles away. They're part of how Google ranks the map. And they're what AI assistants summarize when someone asks who to see. A review that names the treatment and the doctor helps on all three.

    01 — Deliverables

    What I do

    • Review requests at the right moment: a text or email after a completed visit, from your own practice number and name, set up in your system.
    • A private check first: patients who had a bad experience reach your office manager before they reach Google, so problems get fixed instead of posted.
    • Every review answered, on Google and the directories that matter, in your voice, with no patient health details in the reply.
    • Monitoring across Google, Healthgrades, Vitals, Zocdoc, Facebook and Yelp, with alerts for anything that needs your attention.
    • Help with reviews that break the rules: spam, conflicts of interest and off-topic reviews reported to the platform with the right evidence. Legitimate negative reviews get an honest public reply, not a removal attempt.
    • Texting registration handled for you: I file and manage your practice's A2P (10DLC) registration with the carriers, including resubmissions if they reject it, so review requests can go out by text.

    The Process

    How the first ninety days work

    1. Weeks 1–2, set up.

      Review profiles audited, request messages written, texting registration filed in your practice's name.
    2. Weeks 3–6, launch.

      Requests going out after visits, every new review answered.
    3. Weeks 7–12, steady.

      Monitoring running, problem reviews handled, reporting on volume and rating.

    HIPAA and reviews

    Review replies never confirm someone was a patient or mention their care. Requests go only to patients who've agreed to hear from you. How I handle HIPAA in marketing

    What it's measured on

    New reviews per month, average rating, reply rate, and how your review count compares with the practices you compete with on the map.

    Reviews on their own, or as part of the engine

    You can hire me for reviews alone. In the full engine, review requests are part of the follow-up after every started case.

    Questions answered

    Questions

    Only when they break the platform's rules: spam, fake accounts, conflicts of interest or off-topic content. I report those with evidence. A genuine negative review gets a calm, honest reply instead.

    No. Fake reviews break Google's rules and can get a profile suspended. Every review comes from a real patient.

    Requests go only to patients who've agreed to receive messages from you, and replies never confirm someone was a patient or discuss their care.

    US carriers require businesses to register before sending texts to customers. It's filed in your practice's name and usually takes a few weeks. Email requests can start before it's approved.

    Google first, then the healthcare directories patients use for your specialty, such as Healthgrades, Vitals and Zocdoc, plus Facebook. I'll show you where your competitors' reviews are.

    It depends on how many patients you see and how many agree to leave a review. Steady requests after every visit usually change the picture within a few months.
