Introduction

The digital age has changed the way medical consumers look for a doctor, and marketing strategies must change as well to fit the new narrative. Consumers look for a doctor they can trust, and they turn to online reviews in increasing
numbers to make those critical decisions. A recent survey by Software Advice found that 90% of patients use online reviews to evaluate doctors when searching for a new provider. What’s more, 71% of patients rely on reviews as their first step in the process.

Healthcare professionals need a strategy that employs cutting-edge technology to capitalize on these consumer behavior trends. They need a game plan that will improve their visibility in online searches, identify and attract ideal patients, and measure the ROI of their marketing spend. Adopting such an approach will bring healthcare practitioners and medical consumers together in mutually beneficial ways, allowing patients to find doctors they can trust and doctors to be seen by their ideal patients.
