We ran the same search, a dental clinic, from 25 spots around Orchard Rd in Dagenham. You come up among the first three at most of them, and first at the practice itself and at a few spots nearby. Close to home you are easy to find; farther north, you slip lower down the list. Each dot is one of those spots, and Green means you are in the top three there.
So someone searching from that northern pocket may not see you, while nearer home you are being found. What would a patient see searching for a practice down the road?

Gale street is the name that comes before you most often on this map, yet it shares your own website and your group: it is your second listing, not a neighbour, and you come out ahead at 16 of the 25 spots.
We ran the same search, a dental clinic, from the same twenty-five spots around you, so the two maps sit side by side.
So the second map is really your own, and your name is among the first three at more spots than it. Your local map is an asset. The question now moves to your website.

At least two thirds of the visits estimated to reach your site from Google come from searches that include your name, like 'essex family dental'. Only a small part come from searches without it.
So which searches bring people who are not looking for you by name, and where do they land on your site?

Only one of the searches we found leaves your name out. Someone simply looks for a dentist near one of your other locations, Mawney Road, and that search brings up your site.
So general dentistry is already bringing you up for people who are not searching your name, which is the right ground to build on. The question is who sees you on the map before they ever type anything.

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.
