We ran the same search, a dental clinic, from 25 spots around Wythenshawe in Manchester. Right at your own door you come first. One step out, you are already below the first three at every one of the nearer spots, and farther out you sit well down the list. Each dot is one of those spots; Green means the practice is in the top three there.
So beyond your own road, someone reaching for their phone to find a dentist nearby may scroll past you. Who do they come across instead?

Wythenshawe Dental Clinic comes before you at nearly all the spots we tested, including every one of the eight closest to your door, and across the 25 spots it sits among the first three at most of them.
Same search, a dental clinic, from the same twenty-five spots around you, so the two maps read side by side.
They are seen in the first three at far more spots than you, so their map shows what is achievable here, with no promise of the same result. Which raises the question of who reaches your website.

Only a handful of visits a month come from Google, by our estimate. Some people type your name, like 'brownley green dental practice'. Others arrive through searches that never mention it.
So what are those people in Wythenshawe actually typing when they need a dentist, and who do they find instead?

A few searches reach your site without your name. One of them is for a dentist in Wythenshawe. The others read like the names of other practices, so not people looking for you.
So the one search in your own field, a dentist wanted nearby, sits too far back for your site to be found on it. Being findable for it is what a real website would do, and that is where we would 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.
