EQUALLY IMPORTANT
We are probably not the right fit if...
You need results in 30 days. SEO doesn't work that way, and anyone who says it does is lying to you.
You want to own the strategy internally and outsource only execution. We work as strategic partners, not vendors.
Your budget is under $2,000/month. We can't do our best work at that level.
The brands we work best with are past the “let’s try SEO” phase. They know it works. They want it done properly.
Boston healthcare is a different game.
We’ve run SEO here. We know what it takes.
Boston healthcare practices losing patients to Google rankings
Boston's healthcare market is hypercompetitive. Major health systems dominate Google Maps and organic search, pushing independent practices and clinics down the results. Patients searching for 'dentist near me' or 'urgent care Boston' find competitors first—not you. Mobile search drives 68% of healthcare queries in Boston, and outdated websites kill conversion. The practices winning are the ones ranking consistently for local intent keywords.
The 3 places Boston healthcare brands leave revenue on the table
Every engagement starts with a structured audit. These patterns show up in 9 out of 10 healthcare brands we assess — regardless of size or previous agency history.
Don’t take our word for it.Here’s what we actually delivered.
Ranking 5th–8th for 'dentist near me Boston' despite strong reputation. Competitors with smaller practices dominated the Google Local Pack. Monthly new patient inquiries had plateaued at 12–15. No automated patient review process.

You shouldn’t have to wonder what your agency is doing with your money.
Every Friday, you get a Loom from your strategist. Not a report — a walkthrough. What changed, what we’re doing about it, what to expect next week. Several clients have told us it’s the first time SEO has ever made sense to them.
From audit to measurable growth, step by step
Within 6 months, your practice ranks consistently on page 1 for local patient searches. You generate 20–40 qualified patient inquiries per month from organic search and Maps. Your Google Business Profile becomes a trust asset with 50+ fresh patient reviews.
SEO Audit & Strategy
We conduct a full technical SEO audit specific to Boston healthcare search behavior. We analyze your Google Business Profile, local citations, on-page optimization, and mobile performance. We map competitive keywords for your practice location and specialty.
Local & Technical Optimization
We optimize your Google Business Profile for every Boston neighborhood you serve. We implement schema markup for healthcare providers, fix mobile usability issues, and create location-specific landing pages. We claim and optimize citations on Healthgrades, Zocdoc, and Boston-specific directories.
Content & Authority Building
We create high-intent content targeting Boston patient searches: 'emergency dentist Seaport District,' 'pediatrician Back Bay,' etc. We build internal linking architecture, create resource pages, and establish topical authority. Every piece is optimized for both search and patient education.
Review System & Reputation Management
We implement an automated review request workflow integrated with your patient management system. We train your team on the process. We monitor and respond to reviews across Google, Healthgrades, and Yelp to reinforce trust signals.
Ongoing Optimization & Reporting
We track rankings, organic traffic, and patient inquiries weekly. We adjust keyword strategy based on search trends, seasonal patient demand, and competitive moves. Monthly reporting shows visibility gains, patient contact growth, and ROI.
The honest difference
We’re not going to call other agencies bad. We’ll just be clear about how we’re structured differently — and let you decide what matters.

“I've run three agencies through their paces. This is the first one that attributes everything back to revenue. Rankings are vanity. Pipeline is the point.”

“They found a technical issue in week one that had been suppressing our rankings for over a year. Two previous agencies missed it completely. That was the moment I knew.”

“Month-to-month contracts and no lock-in wasn't just a selling point — it forced them to earn our business every month. They always did.”

The questions founders actually ask us
Not the FAQ we wrote. The questions from real first calls.
How long before we rank on Google?
For local searches (Google Maps and 'near me' queries), most practices see Local Pack visibility within 3–4 months with proper optimization. Organic page-1 rankings typically follow within 5–6 months. Competitive factors (practice size, existing citation strength, location saturation) affect timeline. We provide a specific forecast in the strategy audit.
Will SEO work for a new practice with no online presence?
Yes, but it takes longer. New practices start from zero authority and citation presence. Our process accounts for this: we build Google Business Profile, citations, and location pages first, then content. Most new practices see meaningful traction in 4–6 months. Existing practices with some web presence typically see faster results (2–3 months).
What's included in your retainer?
Standard retainer ($2,500–$4,500/month) includes: ongoing ranking tracking, local and technical SEO maintenance, quarterly content updates, Google Business Profile management, review monitoring, and monthly reporting. Higher tiers ($5,000–$8,000/month) add weekly reporting, more aggressive content creation, and competitive analysis. We customize based on your goals.
Do you guarantee #1 rankings?
No legitimate SEO agency guarantees #1 rankings—Google doesn't allow it. What we guarantee is a measurable improvement process: better rankings, more organic traffic, and more patient inquiries. If strategy isn't working by month 4, we adjust or discuss a pivot. We tie success to patient acquisition, not vanity metrics.
How do you handle review generation without being pushy?
We automate the request (via SMS or email after appointment), train your team on soft in-person asks, and provide response templates. The system respects patient privacy and doesn't spam. We focus on generating honest reviews from satisfied patients. Most practices see 15–25 new reviews per month with minimal effort.
