Private visibility audit

Professor Pankaj Gupta Roy

Professor Roy, let’s look at your local visibility.

We ran the same search, a plastic surgeon, from 25 spots around Beech Road in Oxford. The map shows you are far down the list in most places, including nearby. Each dot is one of those spots; Green means you are in the top three there.

Where the map is weak, someone searching from those areas may not come across you. So the next question is what a nearby practice manages to show on the same search.

The comparison worth looking at

One nearby practice shows up more widely

Isabel Teo Plastic Surgeon appears first from the address to further out, while your practice stays far down the list.

We ran the same search from the same spots around Beech Road in Oxford, so the two maps can be read side by side.

So being found from across the area is possible here. The next question is whether your website is bringing in people who already know you.

Each dot is a tested search location. Green means a top-three position for that search. The comparison concerns search visibility, not the quality of care.

Beyond the map

People are not yet searching for you by name

People reaching your site through Google are not searching for you by name.

  • So the people arriving this way are not the ones who know you from a recommendation, from walking past, or as a patient.
  • It also means the people who do reach you are searching for something other than your name.

So which searches are bringing those people to your pages without your name?

The searches behind the numbers

New visitors rarely reach you this way

These are searches about breast surgery services on your site, mainly therapeutic mammoplasty and breast uplift, used by people who do not already know your practice.

  • 'mammaplasty' shows up low on the first page, so few people see it and almost none reach your therapeutic mammoplasty page.
  • 'uplifting breast' shows up low on the first page, so few people see it and almost none reach your breast uplift page.

The searches we found are in your own breast surgery field, but none sits high enough to bring new people to you.

Picture the women searching for breast procedures in Oxford being able to find you.

There is real ground to build on here, and a few gaps worth attention. Both sides are ordinary work, and none of it is beyond fixing.

I used to run clinics myself, so this is two colleagues reading the same page together. None of it needs doing at once; each piece is workable on its own.

You stay with your patients. We carry this part.

Patients choose before they call: from the first names on the map, from the first results on Google. My team rebuilds what decides that, your Google listing and the pages a patient lands on, and keeps it up every month. Here is what happens if you reply.

1
Start here

You send a message

WhatsApp or a voice note. Tell me which part of this page matters most to you. I reply myself.

2

About an hour together

We agree the priorities and what Forge will deliver, in writing. It is the only real time this asks of you.

3

Foundations first

Your Google listing and the pages a new patient lands on. Fixed before anything is built on top.

4

Systems that keep running

Kept up month after month. You watch it in a shared table, with a regular call, and your own people kept in the loop.

Work we have already done

Not a promise. The work itself.

Four practices, four kinds of work. Delivered, not promised.

See the projects
A dental practice near Paris

Every page about implants rebuilt, down to the questions patients ask before deciding. Kept up month after month.

An oral surgeon in Paris

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

A hand surgeon in Italy

Every question his patients ask, mapped, then written and linked from his own publications.

A plastic surgeon in Italy

His whole site reviewed page by page, and the three-month plan, city by city.

What stays yours

One practitioner per city, in writing.

For a given specialty. So we do not work with the practice on the second map above, and would not while working with you.

From €1,200 per month
First diagnostic free. No minimum term. Agreed in writing before anything starts.
About an hour at the start

Then very little: the odd decision, and your clinical eye where it matters.

Everything built stays yours

If you stop, you keep all of it. No minimum term.

We commit to the work

Agreed in writing. Nobody honest can promise you a position on Google, and we will not.

A doctor who ran clinics, doing this part for you

I'm a doctor. I used to run a group of clinics, and I know this part of the job is not why anyone chooses medicine. Today my team does it for practices like yours: the research, the writing and the set-up. You come in only where clinical knowledge matters.

A message or a voice note is enough

WhatsApp or voice note: +33 7 43 69 81 74. Tell me which part of this page you want to understand better. I reply myself. This page was made for your practice only, and it comes down 32 days after it was published.

Got a question?

A few things you may be wondering

The questions practitioners actually ask me after a page like this.

What would you do first for my practice?

We already have a website, an agency or someone who watches this. Do we start again?

Will this bring the right patients, or just more enquiries?

I searched myself and saw something different. Why?

What does it cost, and how long before something changes?

Do you work with the practice you compared me with?
