We ran the same search, a dental clinic, from 25 spots around Lane End Rd in Manchester. Right at your own door your listing comes first. Move a street or two out and you sit below the first three at every other spot we tested, further down the farther out we went. Each dot is one of those spots; Green means you are in the top three there.
So someone searching from a nearby street may scroll past you without ever seeing your name. Worth asking what that same search looks like for a practice down the road.

Running the same search from the same spots, The Dental Health Centre Ltd comes before you at 19 of the 25, including every one of the spots closest to your door.
Same search, a dental clinic, from the same spots around you, so the two maps sit side by side.
They reach the first three at 8 of those spots, while you reach it at one, your own door. That is the gap to work on, with no promise of the same result. So who is actually landing on your website today?

At least two thirds of the estimated visits your site gets from Google come from people typing your name, searches like 'kingsway dentist'. None of the other searches we looked at brings any.
So what does a person with toothache near you actually type, and where do they land?

Four of the searches we looked at do not contain your name, and none of them brings visits. Three are someone looking for a dentist in another part of Greater Manchester, and one reads like the name of a hospital clinic.
So none of these searches is someone looking for a dentist around Lane End Rd in Manchester. Your own pages about NHS care and private treatment are not yet what brings a new patient in. That is the gap worth starting from.

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.
