Healthcare professionals collaborating in a bright modern clinic

About Healthcare SEO

You've probably wondered if you're the only clinic owner struggling with this. You're not. Most of the clinic owners we speak to have a version of the same story.

Why we exist

What you actually want is simple

More enquiries, and more booked consultations. Getting there shouldn't be complicated either.

That's who we built this for. We're SEO specialists for private clinics, not an agency that also happens to do SEO.
01
Fair, scalable pricingPricing that grows with you, instead of starting somewhere eye-watering.
02
Honest timeframesResults in a sensible timeframe, with honesty about how long that genuinely takes.
03
A true specialistA specialist, not a generalist learning on your money.
04
Sensible feesSomeone competent who doesn't charge a fortune for the privilege.

We only do one thing (and we do it well)

We're not a full-service agency. We don't build brands, run your socials, or print your leaflets. We do search.

We only do organic online search, so you're not paying a generalist to learn a specialism on your money.

We only work with self-pay private clinics, so we already understand GMC, MHRA and ASA rules before we touch a single word of your website.

We're a small team on purpose, so you deal with senior people who know your account, not a rotating cast of junior account managers.

We measure enquiries and booked consultations, not vanity metrics that look good in charts but fail to bring you new patients.

We don't have a fancy office or in-person meetings that could've been an email. We put that time into growing your consultations instead.

We don't take enterprise or hospital-group clients, so everything is built for a clinic your size, not retro-fitted from a budget ten times yours.

A clinic that does everything for everyone is rarely the clinic you'd choose for yourself. The same is true of agencies.
Who runs it

Run by a specialist who understands healthcare as well as search

And we say no to everyone else

We'll be the wrong choice for you if:

  • You want the cheapest option on the market.
  • You're a large hospital group.
  • You judge success by rankings rather than by enquiries and bookings.
  • You want someone to agree with you, rather than tell you the truth.

We'd rather say this up front than waste a call finding it out.

We find the one thing holding you back, and fix that first

At any moment, one thing is holding your growth back more than anything else. We find it, fix it, then move to the next. We won't bill you to polish what's already working.

It's also why we explain what each part of search does and why it matters, in plain English, with no jargon. You should understand what you're paying for, you shouldn't need a translator.

No contracts. No lock-in. No setup fees.

You'll see agencies charge a large setup fee, then hold it over you with a twelve-month contract and an exit clause designed so you can never actually leave. We don't do that.

If you don't like working with us, give us thirty days' notice and go. No setup fee, no minimum term, no clauses buried in the small print.

We'd rather earn your next month, every month, than trap you into paying for one you regret. It's probably one of the reasons our clients stay.

Proof we walk the walk

As Seen On

Proof

Real results from clinics just like yours

We've done it for clinics just like yours, and for ourselves, delivering strong results against "Goliath" competitors. Because we're small, you get attention a twenty-person agency can't give you. Because we're specialists, you skip the part where someone learns your industry at your expense.

"I signed up with Geoff at Healthcare SEO when my previous SEO realised that the healthcare industry is pretty niche and they lacked the expertise to optimise my website. Geoff was chosen because he could provide evidence of his experience in my field having worked with several health businesses that I know. A 6 month plan was provided with a set of objectives, devised following an initial chat. Without fail he has delivered on time with every objective and has meticulously overhauled my website, making so many very logical amendments and enhancements, and the results are that my phone rings, sales have tripled in the past 9 months and I have many new clients. I am delighted and would not hesitate in recommending Geoff's services."Tracey Randell · Owner & Director, IBS Clinics
