We ran the same search, a dental clinic, from 25 spots around School Ln in Manchester. At your own address you come first. Move a street or two away and you sit outside the first three at every other spot, further down the further out we went. Each dot is one of those spots; Green means the practice is in the top three there.
So someone a few streets away, phone in hand, looking for a dentist, may simply not come across you. Which raises the question: what is possible here?

Didsbury Dental Practice comes before you at most of the spots we tested, and it is among the first three at many of them, while you hold first place at your own address.
Same search, a dental clinic, run from the same spots around School Ln in Manchester, so the two maps sit side by side.
Someone a few streets away is shown their name among the first three, and not yours. Their map shows what is reachable here, with no promise of the same result. So where does your own website stand?

We looked at eight of the searches your website shows up for. One uses your name, 'didsbury dentist'. On that one and on the others, your pages sit beyond the first page. These are estimates.
So what are people in Didsbury actually typing when they do not know your name yet, and where do they land?

A few searches without your name do show your site. They are about treatments you offer: implants and teeth whitening, plus a general search for a dentist in your postcode area.
So someone looking for implants or whitening around School Ln in Manchester would have to scroll a long way to find you, then read a home page. Whitening is the one worth building a proper page around. The question is where you start.

Here is what already works for you, and what we would fix first.
None of this is about your care. It is about who sees your name first.
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.
WhatsApp or a voice note. Tell me which part of this page matters most to you. I reply myself.
We agree the priorities and what Forge will deliver, in writing. It is the only real time this asks of you.
Your Google listing and the pages a new patient lands on. Fixed before anything is built on top.
Kept up month after month. You watch it in a shared table, with a regular call, and your own people kept in the loop.
Four practices, four kinds of work. Delivered, not promised.
See the projectsEvery page about implants rebuilt, down to the questions patients ask before deciding. Kept up month after month.
The page patients land on before they book, her Google advertising, and a weekly letter to the colleagues who refer to her.
Every question his patients ask, mapped, then written and linked from his own publications.
His whole site reviewed page by page, and the three-month plan, city by city.
For a given specialty. So we do not work with the practice on the second map above, and would not while working with you.
Then very little: the odd decision, and your clinical eye where it matters.
If you stop, you keep all of it. No minimum term.
Agreed in writing. Nobody honest can promise you a position on Google, and we will not.
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.
