We ran the same search, a surgeon, from 25 spots around Barlow Moor Rd in Manchester. It shows you are far down the list in most of those spots, including close to you. Each dot is one of those spots. Green means the practice is in the top three there.
So someone nearby searching on their phone may not come across you from many of those spots. A nearby practice does not have that problem.

The page patients land on before they book, her Google advertising, and a weekly letter to the colleagues who refer to her.
