We don’t show up on Google Maps or ChatGPT

Patients ask Google Maps or an AI assistant for a doctor nearby, and the answer names someone else. We fix your Google profile, your website and the pages AI reads, so the answer names you.

The problem

What it costs you

When a patient searches for a doctor near them, Google usually shows a short list of practices on the map above everything else. If you are not on that list, most patients never see you.

AI assistants work the same way, with even fewer names. In Tely’s study of 72 US markets, a practice that fit the patient’s question had its own website read in only about 1 AI answer in 10 in the largest cities.

Questions

Questions practice owners ask

Why doesn’t my practice show up on Google Maps?

Usually because the Google Business Profile is incomplete or in the wrong category, has few recent reviews, or the website does not back up what the profile says. Distance to the person searching matters too, and you cannot change that. The rest you can.

How do I get my practice recommended by ChatGPT?

AI assistants recommend practices whose pages clearly say what they treat, where and for whom, and that other sites mention. We write those pages and fix your listings, so the AI has something to read about you.

Is this the same as SEO?

It overlaps and it is not the same. Ranking in Google helps AI find you, but being recommended also depends on whether your pages answer the question in words the model can use: conditions, procedures, insurance plans and locations.

How long does it take?

Profile fixes can show up within weeks. Search and AI visibility build over months. Your monthly report shows the change.

Where do I start?

With the Google Business Profile: the right main category, complete services and hours, and steady reviews. Then the website pages that back it up. Our Google Business Profile and AI search visibility pages explain each fix.

What does fixing this cost?

It depends on how many locations and services need work. Your free practice report shows the size of the job first.
