Local SEO & Paid Ads for Orthopedic Practices

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Orthopedic local SEO targets procedure-specific intent — 'knee replacement surgeon near me,' 'rotator cuff repair specialist,' 'workers comp orthopedic doctor.' We optimize your Google Business Profile for each service line, build location pages for subspecialties (spine, sports medicine, hand, foot/ankle), and structure schema for surgical procedures, insurance accepted, and fellowship training. This captures patients at the moment they need a surgeon, not general health information.","question":"How does local SEO for orthopedics differ from general medical SEO?"},{"answer":"Yes. Our AI SDR and AI voice agents follow your clinical triage rules — they ask the right screening questions (injury date, imaging done, insurance type, referral source), qualify urgency, and book into the appropriate slot (same-day fracture clinic, workers' comp evaluation, second-opinion consult). Complex cases get flagged for your clinical coordinator with full context. Every inquiry is handled in under 60 seconds, 24/7.","question":"Can your AI SDR handle complex orthopedic triage like workers' comp or fracture follow-ups?"},{"answer":"Yes. Database reactivation works with your existing CRM/EHR — no platform switch required. We connect via API or secure export to identify patients who inquired but didn't book (consultation requests, second opinions, imaging reviews). Our AI systems then outreach via SMS, email, and voice to re-engage them. You only pay for conversations that convert to booked appointments.","question":"We use a specialized orthopedic EHR (like ModMed, Nextech, or Phoenix). Does reactivation work with it?"},{"answer":"Paid campaigns on Google and Meta can produce inquiries within days of launch. We build geo-targeted campaigns around your highest-margin procedures (joint replacement, spine, sports medicine) with landing pages matched to each service line. AI follow-up ensures every lead is qualified and booked immediately. SEO compounds over 3–6 months for sustained organic visibility.","question":"How fast can paid ads start generating surgical consults for a new practice location?"},{"answer":"Integrated beats fragmented. One partner runs the full path: local SEO, paid ads, creative production, AI follow-up, and lead reactivation — with one report showing lead-to-booked-surgery metrics. No vanity metrics. No handoff gaps between marketing and intake. Our AI SDR delivers 4–7x conversion lift over unmanaged follow-up at 70–lower cost per qualified conversation than a traditional SDR team or answering service.","question":"What makes this different from hiring a healthcare marketing agency and a separate answering service?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Find the Bottleneck","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"We audit your buyer journey — referral sources, local search presence, paid ad performance, response speed, and EHR/CRM data — to find where surgical cases are leaking before we launch anything."},{"step":"2","title":"Build & Launch Fast","gradient":"from-yellow-500 to-orange-500","description":"We deploy local SEO fixes, Google Business Profile optimization, geo-targeted ad campaigns (Google, Meta), landing pages for key service lines, and AI follow-up systems.
